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.

sedan?

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

Edited by GTR-boy

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.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
