Hey guys this is my very first post so please dont flame me,

anyways i currently own a 94 Toyota Supra SZ i purchased about 6 months ago. This car has been very true to me and is still a pleasure to drive. However since the purchase i have been able to come in possession of a bit more money and am looking to upgrade. This is purely because my decision to buy this particular Supra was very rushed and made quite ignorantly without any contextual knowledge towards the model itself. After purchasing the car and reading up a bit more, i became aware of how hasty my transaction had been. I was particularly annoyed to find out about the SZ-R model which features larger brakes and a 6 speed gearbox (there are also other upgrades as im sure most of you are aware of but they were the main two which stood out to me the most). Now that im deciding to sell the car, i am very hesitant about purchasing another without a full understanding of it. One car i am considering is the R34-25GT. I am completely determined to buy a car which pleases me in all ways and without regrets. For this reason i have had several questions, most of which have already been answered by the resources available on this site (very helpful i might add). I do however still have a couple more in regards to variants and i want to be completely informed before i commit to a sale. I was wandering if like the NA Supra, does the Skyline have a particular upgraded model (like the SZ-R) that has some additional factory extras. Furthermore, was there ever a refurbishment of the R34 during its production, that is, is there a Series 1 and Series 2 model?

Thanks for all your help guys and sorry if i kept comparing the Skyline to the Supra, but its the only way i could covey what im trying to ask.

yes there is a series 1 and 2 r34 (but the differences are minimal. no difference in performance, just cosmetic). there isn't really any model variations of the turbo versions of the gt-t. some may have a few different options, but that simply comes down to what options the original owner wanted

What year was the Series 2 released, and was there any variations of the na GT version? thanks for the help

      Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed

      hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me

      Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
