Hey all those people from NSW im new to the forum and from NSW, thought this was the right spot to post an introduction. Well yeah im still on my L's at the moment and ive been learning on my older brothers R32 Skyline. Have fallen in love with it and am currently searching for either a R33 Or R32 stock non-turbo for while im on my P's. Although i dont have a cash at the moment im really looking forward to owning my own.

After helping my brother rebuild his RB20 motor over many long nights, i've learnt a lot and am looking for somewhere to learn abit more about my Skylines and more about the RB motor series.

So hopefully i can learn a thing or 2 here :P

Cya guys.

Buy an r31 for your first, reliable, got enough go for an early p plater, cheap enough so when you crash it within 6 months it's not the end of the world. Save up for a 33 or 32 for when your off your ps

but that's just my opinion anyway,

welcome to the club, good bunch of people on here

N/A R34 FTW on your P's - goes a little harder then the 33's and 32's *flame jacket on* :bunny:

Welcome man...if you buy a skyline on your p's its the best car to have as a first car...so much fun.. and you learn so much as far as driving is concerned...as long as your not an idiot and rap yourself around a tree or be a hero and lose your licence at every set of traffic lights :D

GL!

rb25 r32 - they are rare but would go better than a r34 neo because of the weight but you'd need to find one in manual - i think most of them are auto.

Thought id jsut update this thread. Ive had a look at many R32's, but not many R33's and one of my wrecker mates managed to get me a RB25 turbo for cheap as. So im gonna drop it in the futuree car. And convert it to a NA. :)

Engine conversions are classed as a Performance Modification, this would be illegal whether it be NA or Turbo. And since the RTA will have the engine number marked as a Turbo also, it's going to cause more problems.

Keep the motor standard and do suspension mods.

      R32 gtr transmission strength, billet plate

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      You're already well into "gearbox is a consumable" territory there. A billet plate will either make it (effectively) 1% stronbger or make it last one more pass. At some point you'll probably tear 3rd gear into small chunks and regret all the life decisions that came before it.

      R32 gtr transmission strength, billet plate

      By cosline · Posted

      I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.

      GTX2867R GEN 2 NO OUTPUT FOR BOOST SOLENOID

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.

      Nissan Skyline R34(ER34) Front Suspension Noise

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?
