It means it was, from factory, a Non Turbo car.

Now that means the person you bought it from, who told you it was an "EX-Turbo" had gone and turbo'ed a non turbo car, then removed it all and sold it as stock non turbo again.

This isn't as bad as a Turbo car that had been neutered of its turbo and running low compression.

You do not have a 25GT-V but you do have a 25GT. Still, that's good news for you. thumbsup.gif

More likely it means the seller didn't know what they were talking about. Probably thought that all Skylines are turbocharged so this one must have been deturboed.

That's what I'm thinking too. But then again, some the habibs and morons out there would be stupid enough to go to the trouble of turboing an NA and unturboing it.. lol..

I'm thinking the same as you though Hanaldo. It's probably just a factory non turbo stock as a rock. They hype it up to people who know nothing about cars by slipping that magical word in. 'turbo'

Very nice, & welcome !

Love the Nismo front bar - looks very very nice with the wheels, in blue.

If you get sick of the wheels one day down the track simply powdercoat them white, would look even better IMO & is pretty cheap to do.

R34 Nismo-kit side skirts arnt expensive, if you can find them, & would finish off the 'looks' very nicely.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
