Hey Guys,

I'm pretty young, 14. My dad said he would go half with me in a Nissan Skyline R34 GTT 1998 Model. I've always wanted one. I'm just writing a list of things that I will eventually get for it. I need help with trying to find these good parts please look Below.

My Colour Scheme for the Car is Black and Silver. The Parts I need are;

Interior

A Matt Black Steering Wheel.

A Matt Black Dashboard thing.

A Pair of Nice Black Seats (Front).

A Pair of Nice Black Leather Seats (Back).

A Good Speedo (Black, but the dials and everything you get the info off Silver).

Performance

Nice Wheels (Silver).

Good Brakes (Silver Cover).

A Good Muffler (Not sure what size, i've seen post that you can loose speed and compression if it's to big so I need someone to tell me a good type and size).

Exterior

A Nice Body Kid (Black and Silver).

Some Cool Side Skirts (Black).

A good looking Spoiler (Black).

Sound

For Sound I was going to get the below but I'm not sure, can you tell me if it's good.

IVA-W520EBT Stereo- $999.00.

2x SWX-1243D Subwoofer - $1398.00.

lol, Good aspirations, GTT is turbo im assuming ( sorry not a 34 fan at all)

Interior, You will need to get all of that custom,

Wheels, You choice- No one here really cares for big 18" + chromies if htats what your intending,

Brakes- Stock power you will be fine, Get good pads a synth fluid.

Body kit and spolier, Your choice.

Exhaust, Depending if turbo or not- Either way....Just leave it stock.

Really not the project for a 14yr old, Unless you were born with a silver spoon.

Good luck mate ;) Pm me any questions il see what i can do.

@NYTSKY: Thanks.

@Seano350GT: I'm serious.

@sydking: Yeah I knew pretty much all that, sorry I didn't make my self clear in the post. I was suppose to say do you know any websites for customised parts and/or Yes; They are turbo.

Yeah I can on my P's and L's.

But if it is illegal which I don't think it is then I can get an Exemption.

It is Illegal on both of them as far as i am aware in NSW unless something has changed recently which i highly doubt, so before you start painting all your dreams onto paper you are probably best researching the ability to drive such a car..... The people on SAU are generally a wealth of knowledge and very helpful as majority are owners of the cars themselves (like i am), but at 14 you are probably in the wrong place to start posting new threads, its great to see your enthousiasm at such a young age but do your research on the RTA laws then evaluate what you plan to do.

Yes it it illigal, Yuu can only drive it on your L's And NO you wont get an exeption, $1400 fine and 9 months loss of licene is pretty standard for that offecne.

You will only get an exeption if you live in the bush and need to drive a v8 land cruiser ect or your a mechanic and even then its only during work hours. Seriously dont bother with it.

Get a NA or just dirve the turbo and prepare to deal with the boys in blue.

you can only get an exemption if your in QLD and your car has a FACTORY turbo with a power to weight ration of less than 125KW/Tonne..

Which is a R32 GTR.

But yeah like most of these boys said, you've got years and years to go until you end up getting one. Unless your spoilt and your parents buy it for you.

Good old RTA, allow a completely inexperienced driver roll around in a turbo car :ban:

I'm from Sydney myself, i know that.

We have a 210KW power limit on P plates too. But i have no idea why this law was only intruduced in QLD.. now even more people are going to die on our roads from 17 year olds driving turbo'd cars. The law was only introduced January this year from memory, i haven't heard of anyone that's actually got the exemption but i know that you don't need a reason whatsoever.

Congrats, being from Sydney is a definite advantage when it comes to intelligence!

Yes, p platers can drive a 210 kw VE SV6

Now they can also drive a turbo car up to 125kw/tonne

Better run for the hills and never drive again, a car with a turbo is way more dangerous than a corolla hooking through a school zone!

Has the p plate road toll dropped since the introduction of power restrictions? No.

OP, by the time you get your licence, cars will fly but P platers will only be able to drive ground vehicles, their performance won't matter, as they'll be seen as almost obsolete and underwhelming compared to jet cars. Just buy the GTT now in preparation for the next few years.

The places for all of those parts is supercheap and Bob Jane T-marts.

You can buy matte black paint and cool seats from supercheap and there's also sections full of racing steering wheels and gear knobs, they have speakers, too. The most important thing though; is that they stock cannons. Get in ASAP as their cannons never last long. The bigger the better, buy two and stick one on the other side of the car for symmetry.

They have an array of specialty tools and if you have any problems whatsoever, the in house supercheap technicians can help you fit seat covers and offer you advice on which wood screws will hold that heart shaped cannon on best.

Bob Jane is the go to guy if you want high performance 22" rims and grippy nangkangs that will surely get you stepping out at the roundabout D1GP.

    • Seems to be the case mate , still an OK price for a grey import.
    • I’m interested in the carbon diffuser fins and Toshiba MFD screen replacement if they’re still available.
    • @GTSBoy yeah i know it was not the "great" idea but it is and option...but i think i will stay on no BoV rather then trying to make it work with "half" this and that. But that GReddy FV2 is cool...i like that you can make it like stock if you want (and have/make the custom pipes) For other thanks! it was alot of information. But for the sound...a dont rly "like" both of them...specialy if they are loud...but if i "must" choose i would rather have little whooosh rather than sutututu with no BoV....BUT that is what is i gonna get. So for the all info i gather. In my case:  No BoV is not that bad cuz it is stock...and iam used to put N/clutch right after rpms are around 1000 so it should be ok...just need to avoid "big" drops. But i do not have the engine in the car so i do not really know how "bad" or good it is. But as i had that little test drive it looked ok. The atmo BoV should be worse car would dump to much fuel specialy between the shifts...so without proper tune/ECU i dont want that. BUT with that...car should drive ok with no problems right? (i do like there is less piping wih this solution) 🙂 
    • Usually an RB20 won't stay in closed loop idle anyway. The O2 sensor gets too cold, stops swinging.
    • They aren't, but it depends on what interests you about an R32-R34. If it's the front engine I6 turbo that tunes well with a manual transmission an E92 335i 6MT is so incredibly cheap. You can get a super clean one for 20-25k USD tops. Put an LSD in it, tune it, have fun with it. If it's the general idea of AWD + turbo and a manual transmission the 996 Turbo is absolutely much more expensive, it's less practical but it's also basically a complete track-ready car from the factory. At least the Mezger doesn't have heaps of oil control issues. And in the US the 996 Turbo and R33 GTR are roughly the same price these days. 996 maybe a bit more now that the hype has abated for old Skylines here.
