A little part of me would die if i saw an NA skyline with one of these bad boys. Please don't ruin our reputation.

Ricer mods belong on shit cars, not skylines.

I guarantee that 95% of people will laugh at you if you go ahead with this.

I fail to understand why you believe a turbocharged car is un-necessary.

I love my car to bits and jumping back into an NA car just isn't the same. It's so much nicer to have a car with decent mid-range, 90% of my driving is between 2-3k rpm.

there are still plenty of ricer mods on skylines as it is.

a lot of people class a lancer with an evo bodykit as being ricer, therefore that makes a NA skyline with a GTR bodykit as being ricer as well.

Just don't forget to combine the Turbo Whistler with the Hyclone for maximum killerwasps!! Or should I say killer'rasps'?

You might want to throw one of these chips in too http://cgi.ebay.com.au/15BHP-Chip-Nissan-M...#ht_3672wt_1169 That'll squeeze the juice out of the N/A!! :(

Disclaimer: I don't recommend ANY of the above products!! You would have to be an absolute moron to use them on any car, especially a Skyline!

That's quite an insult.

good, it was supposed to be, but it highlights how when mods are done to a type of car that is similar to what you drive it is ok, but when the same mods are done to a different type of car it suddenly becomes stupid.

you either have fitting stupid body kits to any car as being stupid, or not stupid. you might think a NA skyline with a GTR body kit and big stupid drift wing looks good and think that a lancer with an evo body kit looks like crap, but there might be someone who thinks the opposite, that the skyline looks stupid and the lancer looks good. i personally think that they both look stupid. but then i think that most big bodykits are stupid on pretty much any car

      What accelerator cable can be used with greddy plenum

      By Duncan · Posted

      I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...

      HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
