That is clean as!

Epic Win!

It looks stock but are you planning on any mods?

Not planning anything major other then to maintain (increase) reliability.

Looking at stainless turbos and a new ECU (Power FC). Probably a new driver's seat (Bride) and an Aussie (well german - Blaupunkt) stereo - that's about it.

Sounds good!

What turbos you thinking off?

Stainless turbos?

I think he means Steel Internal Turbo's.

There are much better ecu options around than the outdated PFC too.

I believe PFC's are still good and they work very well.

It would be my next step up from the Nistune, I am going for.

Doh - ofcourse not stainless (stoopid SS acronym as in HKS GT-SS ;-)

looking at simple N1 or 2530's or GT-SS........the jury is still out and research to be done - just want to get rid of the ceramics as a future potential problem.

And while on the subject of Doh - seeing this my first Skyline - can someone enlighten me on what is the measurement of the numberplate well at the back ?? Presumably the standard 372mm plates don't fit (have seen many 'bendies') but would appreciate an idea of what plates would fit neatly (thinking 5 digit slimline??)

From memory the Ceramic Turbines are 20+ year old Garrett T28 Turbines.

N1 = Garrett -7 / Garrett -9

Garrett -9's have a marginally smaller Compressor Wheel compared to the Garrett -7.

But allow for more top end as the configuration / pitch angle of the turbine blades is different.

HKS GT-SS = Garrett -9, but with a different Turbine Housing.

Good for response and perfect for street performance.

HKS GT2530 = Garrett -5, but with a slightly bigger Compressor Wheel.

Would be "laggy" for street unless you rebuild the RB26 / 2.6lt HKS V-Cam or go for a 2.8lt / RB28 HKS V-Cam.

I got the standard VIC Roads Slimline Plates and they are 'bendies'.

You'd have to go custom slimline if you were to make them fit without bending them.

After 6 months of hard work I've finally bought another skyline. :D specs: '00 34gt 5sp, Work CR Kai 17's, C-West kit, HKS adjustable coilovers, heavy duty button clutch, 2.5 Kakimoto zorst and has a GTR mfd. I'll try take more photos when I have the time to. :cheers:

    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
