I'd get a 34 GTR Nur, then do an RB20 conversion

Add lots of Jap parts stickers on the front guards

Add some 7' ROH Drift Tech rims with Bob Jane Aussie All-rounders (some 75 series 175 r15s)

Keep the stock exhaust and add the biggest tipped canon I could find

Paint the bonnet and boot black

Remove the rear wing

Add neons inside and out

Replace the tail lights with chrome and LED items

Replace the drivers seat with a quality Riccaro knock-off

Add a 16' sub woofer and 3000PMS amp (in the boot and loose so it rattles) to the standard head unit

Needs a wicked blow-off valve, real loud

7' tacho mounted on the dash with a 2' shift light (keep the car an Auto)

Cover the interior in some cheap Hessian sack style seat covers

Get some bolt (or rivet) on wheel flares

Fill the passenger foot well with Farmers Union ice coffee cartons, and empty Winny Blue's

If money is no iten a bonnet scoop would be cool

Well I got my GTR back from the mechanic tonite after I got 3 minor things done... had a snapped speedo cable, a very strong smell of petrol after the car was turned off and I had my cusco master cylinder brake brace installed.

I thought it'd make a little difference, but its really really firm now... totally worth the money imho....thanks to Road & Track for the labour and ISC Performance for the brace itself...

So now my speedos fixed, car doesnt smell of my precious 98 octane, and the brakes are firmer than an athletes arse...

Waiting for interior parts to arrive before I re-wire the boost controller into the glovebox... new interior parts to replace the old crappy plastic ones that some japanese dude decided to mount one billion gauges on... drill holes ftl.

Then I suppose its replacing my busted front splits and getting a sub, and getting a replacement gearbox and the fitment of the jim berry clutch.... then I suppose the EBC green pads and RDA slotted and dimpled rotors... then I guess I'd save up for the garrett turbos, fuel pump, injectors, afm's, cam gears, cams, fitment of the n1 waterpump of which i'm yet to pay sled.... not to mention fitment for all of the above..... and after that I'd get custom dump pipes and a secondary barrel muffler from Exhaust tech...

and then i'd wank out on the cosmetics. Bayside blue spray on the r32 gtr body. sanded back to the undercoat so the crappy quality paint the predecessor used doesnt cock the whole job up. Perhaps candy electric blue. if i win a lottery... I'd get the interior retrimmed in some kinda of leathery shizzl. I'd like the interior to look more like a classic british roadster or italian sports car aka leather and more leather... oh, and some R34 GTR rims would be sicker than the sickest sikh that ever caught a for of sickness...

now thats fooly sik. uleh.

-D

I actually have both these items sitting in a spare room. The EBC Green Stuff brake pads have done stuff all kms - I could probably give you an exact figure if I dug up the receipts. The R34 GTR rims are MINT - I think you've seen them. I may consider selling them soon (the rims that is). If you want the brake pads let me know.

hmm....

hid conversion.

ucf30 big brake upgrade.

yella terra supercharger.

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
