You can definatly import R34 GT-4 Coupes, my avatar picture thingy is mine. I bought it purely to bring my gtr back to life as the 4wd running gear is 99% identical. In fact the only difference i noticed is that the shaft from the gearbox to the front diff was like half an inch smaller in diameter. The rb26 fitted no probs as well.

do you know about sedans?

what engine came with your gt-4?

props for the conversion.

i bet you suprise a few people when they realise its not just a rwd 25det 34.

..not to mention 34's look much sleeker then 34 gtrs.

Cheers mate, apart from two guys i work with that own skylines i'm still to come across anyone that knows/cares since i've owned the car so i havn't surprised anyone lol.

As for your questions,

My car came with the n/a rb25 neo 6. I couldn't find any turbo'd gt-4s I heard somewhere that nissan stoped offering turbo rb25 gt4s after the r32 to seperate it more from the gtr. Can't confirm that tho, i'm not really into becoming an expert on the history of nissan.

I can't comment on the sedan as I wasn't in the market for one and i don't want to give you false info but what i can do is give you the web address of the importer i got my car through and they'll be able to tell you for sure if you can import them. I'm not sure about the rules of plugging buisness on here so I'll PM it to you.

What you've written is correct. :D

EvoIII, there's a member on here named LukeENR34 who has a manual R34 GT-Four sedan, and he has plans for an RB26 conversion at some stage. I'm sure he'd be happy to give you buying advice if you asked.

      Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?

      Intro/R33 owner

      By f00stx · Posted

      Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).

      Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.

      I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
