Good morning ladies n gents! my name is rak and Im newbie here drving r34 gt.

i imported my gt 2 month ago and waited for it so long because of tsunami -_-

Btw, my gf also imported r34gt recently.

So, now we both drive r34 gt and all my mates say beautiful skyline couple.

once she got her r34, the problem begins.................. she says it's god damn too slow.

she keeps saying wanna change car car car car! im sick of the word CHANGE CHANGE

I asked her to buy a gtt or gtr and she refused because she ONLY wants to drive gtr.

then I asked "Can u drive manual Miss automatic? she said she cant.

Sorry about rubbishs above..

Serious question! Please not teasing me or swearing at me. IS IT POSSIBLE TO MAKE R34 GT to GTR?

Not just looks, she wants to put twin turbo into her r34 gt automatic.

I hope there are professional reply to understand easily and if its possible, expected total cost.

ps. one more thing.. she wants to keep the engine. wanna only get twin turbo and extra to support the engine. Help me bros....

Tell her to forget it. If she wants power, sell the GT. She says she only wants a GTR, and yet she wants to keep the GT and the high comp NA motor? whistling.gif

I went down the path of converting my GT to a GTT a bit over a year ago. I went with the most efficient option of importing a donor car from Japan and swapping everything over, so it was all just straight swapping. All up it probably cost me around 10k, I don't even want to add it up to know for sure. I had my reasons for doing the conversion, and to be honest if I went back I would probably do it all again. But I still recommend anyone who asks me to sell their car and buy a factory turbo model. It's nothing but headaches to convert.

What I did was far simpler than what you are proposing. If you are as serious as you say, I suggest you go and do some research mate (read this thread first http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/33407-how-to-turbo-your-na/ ), you will quickly discover how big a job you are looking at. And then you have an unreliable twin turbo NA motor strapped to a crappy auto transmission with rubbish handling and terrible brakes. It's a terrible idea.

Rak, I like you mate. your a good bloke.

there is no way a high comp NA 25GT is even going to be as fast as a basic GTT with a cat back exhaust.

seriously, sell the 25GT and buy here a R34 GTT auto. you can put a GTR kit on it, upgrade turbo etc (no need for twin turbo, a larger single turbo is fine and can make plenty of power) and she will have a plenty fast car that is still auto but will look and go like a GTR. plus the turbo models have better brakes which is important too.

now, we need some pics of your GF driving. :action-smiley-069:

GTR Engine Conversion + Gear Box / RB26 ECU / Exhaust / Brakes / Suspension / Wheels / Tyres etc...

+ Mechanical Labor for doing all that, then it will need to be tuned and Engineers Cert for the Engine Conversion = $$$$

Sell R34 GT and buy R34 GTR.

      Crank/No Start - R32 GTR Chassis with R34 RB26

      By 89GTR_VA · Posted

      Apologies for the long post, but needed somewhere to lay out the entire timeline of events and actions taken:   I've got an 89 GTR with a R34 RB in it. It's been running great all year, driven probably 500KM in the last month. It's not my daily driver, just a weekend fun car.    Build info: R34 RB26 - HKS 2.7 stroker kit, HKS adjustable cam gears, HKS turbo upgrades, Trust intercooler, R34 factory DENSO 440cc injectors, JUN chipped/tuned R32 ECU. All of this work was performed in Japan back in 2019.    Thursday 10/2/25 - It's a nice day and decided I'll drive it to work, I start it up in the garage and I notice it took a few extra cranks and sounded a bit funny. I figure maybe it was just because it was a pretty chilly morning. I pull it out into the driveway to warm up a bit before leaving. As I leave the driveway, it feels very off and sounds like a misfire. I pull it back in the garage to deal with after work and take the daily to work. I was able to diagnose it as a cylinder 5 misfire with the old spark plug test (unplugging each plug until a sound change with the engine running). I take off the whole ignition system, ignitor, plugs, spark. *Important note, it is still on the R32 ignition system with the separate ignitor system. I test each system with a multi-meter and nothing presents as a smoking gun. I put it all back together and it starts up no issue. I go ahead and order the PRP R35 ignition conversion kit. It should arrive today (10/13/25)   Friday 10/3/25 - Another nice day, car starts up great and drives great all day. Very pleased that everything seems to be OK   Sunday 10/5/25 - Decided I'll take it to play some golf, load up and drive to the course about 25 minutes away. Drives wonderful the whole way there, I pull in the parking lot and the engine completely comes to a stop. I do not recall if it sputtered at all, but just remember all of the sudden the engine was off. I roll it into a parking spot, try to crank it back on and nothing.  It'll crank and crank and not even try to start. End up getting it towed back to my house and push it up into the garage.    Items I have checked: Fuel in the tank Fuel Pump relay Fuel pump fuse  Spark Plugs & gap Coil packs Ignitor    I know the cylinders are getting fuel as the plugs smell like fuel after a start attempt. I tried spraying starter fluid into the manifold and cranking and not even a sputter.    I decided to do the live CAS test (removing the the CAS, ignition on and spinning the CAS stalk to see if the injectors pulse and spark is active). All of the injectors were pulsing and I have spark at the plug. The half-moon end of the CAS did seem very loose, I'm not sure how much play is supposed to be there, but it was more than I expected. There was no in/out play of the shaft, just the tip end that is pinned on had quite a bit of play.    CAS Play video   When I put the CAS back in, I stupidly did not re-time the engine. I know I need to do that tonight, however, I do not think it will start given it seemingly was not the issue. My plan is to do the PRP R35 coil kit and retime the engine at the same time.    I plan on ordering the Haltech Nexus Plug-in ECU once they are available again, but ideally would like to get this sorted before firing the parts cannon at it and potentially adding more variables.    Anything glaring that I am missing here, I'm a bit at a loss?

      Get it on a dyno. Get something logging Consult. Run it up and find out what is causing it.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      By BuiltNotBought · Posted

      Looking for a plenum for rb25 de+t neo  Not looking to push much power maybe 300kw at the wheels, is there much difference in flow for Freddy “Greddy style” compared to original Greddy or options like Proflow or Otaku garage?    I won’t be porting the de Neo head for now as I think it’ll be fine 280-300rwkw but appreciate the help and any experiences anyone has between them and any advice. Thanks  Looking at this plenum for now below
