hey im new here first post,

im 17 and wanting to get one of these next year and i have a few questions i really like the bayside blue colour but cant find any that are p plate legal all the one's i see in this colour are like 50k and have turbo are they like rare or something?

also ive seen the 2000(year) r34's that are p plate legal for like 10k or under if i cant get one in bayside blue how much do you think it would cost to get it painted that colour?

how much do spoilers retail for? like the stock one's? and what the max size rim's i could have on the R34?

thanks for any answers in advanced

cheers

the max size rims you can put on a natro skyline and the max size you should put on to not look like a cock are 2 different things. for a natro, stick to 17" rims.

what sort of spoiler are you wanting? some big stupid ricer style drift wing? if yes, then don't. just don't. they are bad enough on turbo skylines and even worse on natro ones.

as for bayside blue, the cost of a decent respray will be a few thousand dollars, depending on whether you get in the engine bay, etc done. certainly not worth it on a NA unless you plan on keeping it once you get off your P's.

just keep hunting till you can find a bayside blue natro, or simply buy another colour until you get off your P's

the spoiler i was interested in is like this i list a picture below you can only kinda see the side though

use have an idea for what this would retail for?

Did Nissan make ghey-side blue NAs? I cant remember ever seeing one

There were a few GT-T's in the colour but not many

They Def did make them, i think it was the GT-V that came in Bayside blue. I remember researching it myself years ago, and from what i gathered, they actually released the bayside blue in the GT-V long before the GT-T got it.

I think it was basically a GT-T, minus the turbo engine. It got everything else the GTT got.

Ya.

They made R34s in bayside blue but only series 2 onwards.

R34 NA GT-V, all turbo things except engine / gauges.

Can easily be identified by BA Failcon-spec front bar (Think 2001 models got it?)

This one has had it changed to the S1 bar.

This is what they would have looked like originally....

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
