Hey all,

I'm due to pick up an R34 GT25 in the next 2 weeks, and am very happy with it! Turbo was out of the question due to insurance and the likes, so I decided to go with an N/A R34.

I was just wondering if anyone could provide me with some solids specs for it? I've heard lots of rumours about the car, the most entertaining of which was that it can outrun a turbo R32. I'd be interested in hearing specs such as the KWs etc, and also what sort of cars R34s can outrun.

Here she is (aint she pretty :))

Well looks like another proud owner of a 25GT :)

factory specs are:

RB25DE Neo Strait 6 engine.

Power 200PS (147KW) at 6,000rpm

Torque 26.0 at 4,000rpm

Weight 1340KG

You will be able to dust many a Commodore and Falcon as long as it's not packing a V8 or turbo.

Nah a friends mate did.

I like the rims. Will probably keep em for a while.

Planned mods are just basic to start off with.

Firstly an exhaust (any advice on what type would be great, keeping in mind that I am going to turbo it further down the line)

Secondly just basic interior like floormats and sports pedals and maybe for exterior some underglow (i know its ricey but its sick :))

Then I'll either get 2 12" subs to compliment the system in it already (I think its just the stock system with a CD stacker and a head unit)

Then I'll consider getting some new wheels. Im thinking maybe white rims. Any ideas?

Thanks guys!

I recently just bought a 25GT which looks almost identical to the one you just bought. To say that I am pleased with it is an understatement. :)

For the exhaust I have recently (read: today) fitted an HKS Super Dragger II exhaust. It is a bit bigger than it should be I spose (3.25") but, like you, I am looking to turbo it too, so I was recommended to buy a turbo exhaust first, rather than buying a non-turbo, then replacing it later. Also very impressed with this purchase.

As for the white rims, unless you've got some time on your hands, don't bother. I had white rims on my Lancer and spent more time cleaning them than actually driving the car :D Nothing beats allow in my opinion.

Thats what I thought. As soon as you go too big, its undoing everything an exhaust is there for. That said I'm not going to turbo it for about 3 or 4 years (I'm still 18), so I think it could be worth just investing in the 2.5" recommended by Driver. Cheers for the input tho :) Got any piccys?

It’s well worth paying for a mint condition car, my one was VERY good when I got her, as new condition.

BTW mate you’ll find your insurance will only jump about $100 for putting the turbo on…if you’re lucky it won’t jump at all :D

Just a question, you reckon an R34 with an aftermarket turbo would go harder than a stock turbo (assuming you got the best possible setup)? Also does that justify a GTT label, or is it still a GT25 + T?

Finally what do you guys think about powerchips. My understanding is that it definitely wouldnt be worth getting till after turboing the car since I'd have to replace it anyway...

Munky to cover that....I still call my one a 25GT+t cause that's what it is...just like calling a GTS25t a GTR just cause it's got an RB26DETT in it...it just isn't one.

I'd say even though I used an R33 turbo...got a restrictive exhaust but used and aftermarket computer...my one feels like it goes harder than the stock 25GTt...with a better exhaust on my car I think it'll be quite impressive....for a turbo'd 25GT that is :D

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
