Hey guys, I picked up this pretty lady last night. Its a 1990 GTST 4 door 4wd.

NPG coilovers, extreme 6 puk clutch, r34 neo turbo, 18x8 f and 18x9 r work wheels (any one know the model at all?), f & r strut braces, 3" exhaust, apexi pod, HKS boost gauge, front mount intercooler, m spec factory kit. Also threw in some HID's i had lying around.

Plans are for a new steering wheel as the current one is haggard as fook haha, then upgrade the fuel system (what size injectors is good?). I'm aiming for 200rwkw but time will tell.

This car makes a welcome change from previous cars including an auto charade, and 2 v8 commodores haha

I went for a lovely drive yesterday to see how the car felt on some of my favourite roads, went down the local autopro and picked up a little jack coz i knew the car didn't have one. What i didn't do was check my spare but i knew it was there and honestly how often do you get a flat.

100kms later almost home hear a little bang sorta noise, car starts pulling to the right a tad. I was devastated, started smelling the tyre so i pulled over, got the wheel off, got out the spare. OH FOOOOOK its dead flat. I should've checked it and i felt like a moron. I didn't wanna f**k my good wheel so i bolted up the spare.

Then begun the fun journey of limping the car to the nearest servo barely going fast enough to keep the car from bunnyhopping.

Finally get there and just to add to my luck the servo doesn't have a pump, i managed to burrrow one from a lovely old man which plugged into the cigarette socket. Spare didn't wanna take air. So i start ringing all the people i know to come down and go get my good wheel repaired while i waited with my car. Someone came down i basically threw the wheel through their window and told them to just get it fixed. Turns out the tyre had a gash in it and needed to be replaced, even better no where in my town had that size.

They came back and gave me a lift home, jumped in my other car and went looking for somewhere with the tyre i needed. 2 hours later i was back at the servo putting on the good wheel in the rain generally not having fun.

Touch wood I only get problems like this with this car haha

    • BRUH, one of the biggest mistakes of my life..... and i've had plenty ;[)
    • @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.
    • Echo the awesome sentiment 👍 Definitely a car worth saving. Looking forward to seeing updates as well.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
