for an extra $20 you can have my aids

it was necesary

Hmmm... Thinking about buying an R34 GT-4. How easy is it to do an engine swap? Drop in an RB26 and it's essentially a GTR..

Never seen a GT-4 for sale until now. $15k asking price.

theres a build thread about it.

guys ripping out the na stuff and stuffing it full of GTR goodness

edit: oh and thinking about what shans been saying. i guess i realllyyy shouldnt go for a high maintenance car that needs a shit load of work like a datsun. thanks dickhead :D

Nah, it's a coupe. Red. Nismo kit. Just how I like my 34s :/

not quite that easy... there's a fair few expenses

Well forget the RB26. Just say I dropped in an RB25DET and made the car into a "GT-4+T" :D

I have no experience in Skylines, I only know MR2s.. but I'm guessing like $3000 for the engine. Another $2000 for labor to put it in. Then bigger brakes and stuff would probably be an idea.

Can you explain what you mean by "a few expenses"?

The engine will need to be from a stagea or a gtr or it will not fit. Well the sump wont anyways... If you think the engine and labour is going to cost you 5 grand your underbudgetting pretty badly.

landed in malaysia saturday night, place is nice as, few tuners around lol mainly civics/ accords, toyota yaris/echos, every second car here has rims and hids lol.

outside my hotel was m5, porsche 911 turbo & a porsche gt2 or3 which was mint.

Fair enough. Nevermind then :D MR2 turbo it is then.

Jizzy boy, you'll need an AWD engine for ease of transfer, but even then you'll have to change the ECU over, possibly some wiring, while you're at it you'll need to upgrade your brakes if you wanna have it engineered... oh and you'll need to get it engineered if you wanna stay legal. Not to mention it'll be an auto, and making it a manual is about the hardest swap you can do cos your choices are "R33 S2/R34 GTR gearbox", or "R32 GTR/GTS4 gearbox plus a lot of messing around".

If I were you just make mad cash moneh by selling it to some P-plater stooge that wants to jump the cool car bandwagon by buying a heavy ass non turbo. The moment you turbo it, it'll drop in value.

In short, DO NOT BUY AN AWD SKYLINE unless its a GTR. Trust me, I own one... and unless you're gonna be happy with it the way it is for as long as you have it, don't buy it.

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
