There is something not quite right about the look. its the width or something, can't quite put my hand on it. But I think it looks great.

Question is, spend 15k on that and have a stock motor? Or keep the normal nose and drop 15k into the engine? I think i know what i'd rather... :D

I think it looks good. The rear arches need to have the same styling though(somehow) and needs bigger/ lower side skirts and a rear bar. Other then that, looks great and would be super different, so i would still have it in a flash.

I've tried pricing it all up, Nissan over here wouldn't give out prices for GTR parts.

But I imagine it's not cheap, an M35 bumper is $4,300 + gst here.

Check out Japn yahoo for second hand. Parts are cheaper than R34 gtr's. Easy to get front end bits due to people upgrading to carbon bonnets and fancy front bars.

Front bar approx $200

Bonnet $300-400

Have seen head lights on SAU for $1200-1500 each

My R34 front cost me $4500 in s/hand parts alone.

Reckon you could get it all done for 15k?

I dunno aye... I reckon the headlights will cost around 5K each :)

Considering our headlights are around 2.5K each haha

Thats what the guy says so in the other forum.

"You can pick up an M35 Stagea for around 5k upwards. If you could source second hand parts, which are rare, I reckon that would be around 2-3k So with the car, parts and labour, I reckon you'd be into 10k+"

Of course your talking GBP, not AUD. I guess it comes down to how handy you are with a spanner + Welder eh? 2nd hand parts would be the only way to go. Lets not forget, the guy owns a R35 anyway, so he mustn't be short of coin!

hmm.... interesting! Would be interested to see the exhaust he has in there (and how loud it is) and how he got around the ATTESSA pump

wow, way to make your stagea look like a bag of dicks.

front's wider than the rear. the fender and the A pillar doesn't line up properly. the front bumper doesn't line up with the bonnet. man if you're gonna do something unique, do it right.

like wilson tuckey says... do it once, do it right and do it with fibre.

Farken lol. Always good to get a colourful response from you shan. I bet Neil is missing his stag.

Totally agree, doesnt line up at all and needs to to be wider. Some others I have seen look better.

Me too, not sure about the styling issues. Also I'd question why you'd bother, especially in Britain where cars are cheap. For that money you'd get a 2001 Maserati. For just under 20K (pounds) you can just get into a V12 Aston Martin Vantage.... or for less than the 10K take your pick of M3's, Audi Rs's etc.

There's a limit to being different I reckon. I play with my cars but if those sort of cars were that cheap here, I'd be getting one of them rather than a bodged up half breed.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.

      Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.

      Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.

      By Duncan · Posted

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
