Just bought a 98 Skyline R34 GT non turbo 4 door which is pretty stock, im only 21 so modifications’ are pretty limited when it comes to insurance and all the rest. I want some advice as to what I should do to the car, who I should contact and how much it is going to set me back. Then I can get an Idea of what needs to be done first. Heres some pictures of it:

That was the previous owner and he did own an R33 before hand.

I also past this place nearly everyday, near the roundabout in aspendale. Anyway I got a 4-door gt-v manual, like urs, no spoiler though (please remove it, 4 doors look better without spoilers), and getting uras body kit, exhaust, sound system and that's it, springs to lower it... costing about 4k in total. Did you buy this car from someone named joe? He looks like a monkey.

    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
