Not hard. Not worth it. You also have to upgrade brakes and get it legally registered which makes it not worthwhile. Sell it. Buy a turbo car.

I have done it from start to finish. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't, Don't. Just sell and buy a turbo car. Seems like a hassle? Its far, far less hassle than going the alternate direction.

+1000.

Stuff conversions.

All I did was auto-to-manual my GTT, which is pretty darn simple compared to +T'ing a GT, and it was a total headache. I'm happy with it now but it's not worth the trouble.

Also, since these cars are worth peanuts these days, unless you have the tools, skills, time and space to do it yourself you're going to spend a big chunk of the value of your car on parts & labour to get stuff done properly. I know I have.

In all seriousness I am considering putting my wreck into a 4WD GT-Four, because that would be awesome.

In theory you could run a high comp N/A with turbo with E85. I would, if I could go back in time I would consider a higher CR but I'd never recommend it.

I'd say conversions are really only viable if it doesn't exist in any other way, like Hamish said, a LS1 in a R34.

But a Turbo GTT does exist, a manual GTT does exist.

Time is money, especially if it's someone else's time.

That's how I feed my kids though Greg. Shutttup. :P

If it's as simple as slapping a stock manifold and turbo in there, and nistuning it on e85 I can't see the issue, costs would be fairly low and results would be great, till the auto slips. Haha.

It's all fun and games until you can't run Nistune on R34 N/A's and you get an e-manage and then can't get it working and/or legal or RWC so you put a standard GTT engine in and then the wiring doesn't work right so you give up on Nistune because nothing talks to the auto correctly so you end up saying forget it use an e-manage then the engine blows up and you wait a year for a rebuild and then everything else explodes and scotty fixes it after 6 years of crap and then you slightly bend it

just buy a gtt

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
