Welcome. Both GTR and GTT are R34... Its kinda like any other manufacturers, you've got the BMW 3 series but the 3 series' broken down into a few other variants (e.g. 318 and 335).

Even though to the untrained eyes the GTT and GTR might look the same but they're not. Both internally and externally. It'll take you a little while to be able to tell the difference between all GTRs and GTT/GTST.

I hope you're not ripped off thinking its a GTR.

I bought this car because it was a skyline ;p Nothing more nothing less, the reason I said a "GTR" because it had the emblem ... I don't have much info about them, as I said "newb".

Thanks for clearing that up... So what would a non turbo be called? GT r34? Because mine certainly doesn't have a turbo and the guy definatley said it was an r34.

Lol srsly, that makes sense since I couldn't find an r34 that looked like mine ;p

The guy must have typed it wrong then, r34. So would $5k be a rip off price for it? It had an odo reading of approx 155k when I bought it.

Welcome.

Not a bad looking 33.

Things you should looking at doing to your skyline ASAP

  • Replace all fluids (engine oil, coolant, gearbox oil, diff oil etc)
  • Replace oil filter, fuel filter and air filter
  • replace spark plugs
  • Check for indications of 100000km service (i.e. timing belt has been replaced)

Replacment fluid types etc can be found in the general mainatence section or use the seach function and see where it takes you.

Thanks :)

Yup already did some of that. I don't trust previous owners unless a logbook is shown. Which this car didn't have. Did the full fluid replacement and replaced timing belt. But still need to do the filter replacements and spark plugs.

Will fix those sometime this week :)

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • 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?
