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

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
