I'm relatively new to the skyline seen; however I'm also most certain I have found the one I want.

The Ms has said it needs 4-Doors, so there go the GT-R's also I don't want to inherit too many problems with the car so R34's only and finally she can't drive a turbo, Dam New P Plate laws and cop-magnet car :laugh: !!! So what am I left with 25 GT, GT-X, GT-V or the GT. (let me know if I've missed anything out). I've found a R34 GT-V that has the same specs as the GT-T Less the Turbo. It's done about 75,000 K's and is a manual and is $15,000 (I think due to the lack of turbo I would offer him $12,000-$14,000). First dose the car look worth the $$$.

My second Question is for when She is off her P's in about a year or 2 what to do to up the performance, should I try and find the 2.6 L double overhead cam, electronically fuel-injected, Twin turbo... and drop one of those bad boys in and call it a day... or Get aftermarket turbo exhaust ect... or just use the stock Turbo ect from a RB25DET?

I'm not looking to spend a small fortune only like 3-8G total on performance mods but I'm also looking for Value... all I'm looking for is something a little better than a GT-T, a Falcon, and a Commodore. Something that's not boring, a little impressive but not crazy.

as much as i look at doing my car up i keep hitting the conclusion that its more economical in the long run to buy a car with close to the power that i want done the right way, i see a few cars here and there selling because people spend so much time and money in a car they get over it when close to done, i would suggest getting one of those,

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
