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).

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
