Hey all,

I've been reading the forums for tips and advice over the last few months and have finally become a member of the GTR family purchasing my first Skyline. Currently located in Adelaide, i have just purchased a 1995 GTR V-Spec with 75 000km and with almost no modifications. I am constantly checking this site for information in regards to what the next steps could be in maintaining the wonderful car as original as possible, however i have been told that the need for more power will start to come and modifications will "need" to be done in due time.

I only have the pictures that were available prior to sale however will get more up with time. The only current modifications are twin mushroom filters, 4" turbo-back exhaust, 19" wheels and Remote central locking / alarm system. I have ordered any missing badges / decals for the car (including the V-Spec decal that is missing) and an original GTR33 key as a start to try bring it back to original look. Will slowly start to look at getting the original GTR wheels as will help give the car the original feel.

Hopefully I will be able to come out to a couple of the SA cruises and continue to learn from the helpful people on this site as I am still somewhat of a beginner in car-related things.

Thanks for the help so far,

Adrian

Thanks Lewis,

I'll certainly be looking at coming to a vilies friday as I'm certain more experienced skyline owners can help me figure out what my car has / doesn't have on it.

Will post in SA section once car is properly serviced and good to go, Until then I'll try to drive the Mazda as much as possible.

Thanks,

Adrian

    • Yes the gear for the R33/34 is different, it is red and has a different number of teeth. My part didn't come with that gear though, so I don't know how many teeth are on the red one. You'd have to reuse the 260RS/R33 gear, as long as it's not destroyed.   Haha, as unfortunate as that might be it was working fine for about the first 1500km I've had the car for now.
    • Update all   thanks to the workshop manual, it lead me back to checking fuses as mentioned central locking and door open lights worked when acc was switched on. diagram attached shows two points of power 1. ACC and 2.  Batt with the later being fused (#28) I did check the fuses using a multimeter but I must have stuffed that up also. Went back and checked the batt fuse in interior fuse box and you wouldn’t believe it… a blown fuse. replaced fuse and everything is now working as it should including the climate control   thank you all with your positive insight and knowledge.    
    • Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old
    • Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.
