So; I'm not aloud to have wants, and dreams?

Stop being so greedy and appreciate what you have, you ungrateful bastard. What sort of a spoiled prick WANTS a skyline? What kind of a child lives in a country with clean water and still has the audacity to dream of something greater for himself?

You disgust me.

HAHAHHAA, must be a holden mechanic. Classic!

Jimmy (OP) you need to get your head on right. Just go and get a SV6, your dad should be able to fix that, I heard he's a holden mechanic.

Are we in the wasteland yet? School holidays are so amusing

Would get tutored by that

>.<

A Turbo car with NO TURBO has NO COMPRESSION - THUS NO POWER.

Twin turbo cost for a SKyline - go to G o o g l e and search Prices for GTR's in your area mate.

If you want a nice looking car with some power - get an NA because they actually have compression in the cylinders.

As @Tai1or Made said - it'll be slower than a Hyundai excel.

So buy a Hyundai excel - and you can mash all the other P platers who pulled the Turbo's off their cars.

I drive a turbo skyline on my P's for a total of 17.63 KM per day - to and from work.

I'm just lucky there are no cops that patrol where I drive - seeing as half of them know I drive a Turbo one anyway.

Being that I fit their tyres - and a few of them pointed out my car - then commented "Turbo mate? Big brakes, wouldn't have done that to an N/A" - BUSTED. lol.

They know I don't drive like a total douche - but any of the other cops would frag me on the spot.

Which is exactly why mine's coming off the road for a Build - with an RB25DET. (keep you blokes posted - I wont be going drift spec, but it will hopefully get a cage. ;D)

And I'm buying a little Datto for my Daily run.

Little datto - with an SR20DE - and you other Skyline owners will be gritting your teeth.

For about 3 seconds.

Then you'll be shitting yourselves laughing.

:ph34r:

Little datto - with an SR20DE - and you other Skyline owners will be gritting your teeth.

pretty sure that wont be legal either, engine swaps that need mod certs are illegal for p plater unless im wrong.

also op yes buy the car mod it and do everything you want, just remember though that you wont be ablle to drive it on your p's (alost impossible to get an exception) and it will most likely become your dads car seeing as your going halvies. dont think of it as yours and then you wont be butthurt when its gets sold before you get a chnce to drive it

If the Engine replacement is within 30% larger of the original size - it is legal without an engineers certificate.

1.6 datto.

to 1.988 Silvia motor.

Seems legal to me - just looking at those numbers.

if I modify the engine - then it is illegal.

I COULD be wrong - but considering that my ex girlfriend had one on her P's - that WAS engineered - I'd say mine would be legal.

Either way - It'd be non turbo - a milk and eggs car.

And would have the worlds shortest multi-cat/muffler exhaust known to man to make it road legal with the new emissions standards. lol

2 foot long 2.25" Cat back FTW.

i gotta agree Hadouken, definite trollage happening here.

its either a new benji/barbs profile created to bring the lulz or i will eat my hat. Without sauce.

lulz at the english, even when i was 14 im sure my spelling and grammar wasnt as borderline china spec as skylows, keep up the good work kid. if nothing else your ruffling some feathers which is always worth it for its own sake.

I'm seriously not trolling;

Please answer this;

I'm getting a Non-Turbo now, when I get off my P's I know that's in a rather long time but what needs to be done to the engine to add a Turbo, or a Twin Turbo. (Also what would you say it would cost for a mechanic to do it).

    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything 
    • 🏆 Skyline Supremacy Meets Mount Panorama Magic 🏆 Join SAU NSW as we take the long way to Bathurst, the home of GTR greatness.

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
