Hey guys, the name's joel. I'm new to the SAU forum and am the new owner of a 1998 ER34 :D
This is my first Nissan/skyline/turbo and I'm really happy with it!

2nd Australian owner and only has 81,000kms!

Came with a few modifications such as:

Full Nismo body kit

Sound System (will probably rip out the sub/amp. Will replace head unit eventually)
PDW 18" Wheels (will be replaced ASAP, probably going with XD9's)
HKS Mushroom

Fujitsubo Legalis Super R Muffler (not sure whether to keep and try and locate the rest of the system or just go full new system)

Came with factory floor mats and weather shields, unfortunately a mate accidentally snapped one so need to find another set or might get some carbon ones.

First mods I'll do will be pretty basic: wheels, coils, exhaust, FMIC, boost controller and BOV to start off with. Might de-wing it, maybe.

Only have photos from the carsales ad at the moment, will take and upload my own when I get a chance, she needs a wash first :D

Haven't updated this in months, progress has been slow but nevertheless!

Acquired some tein monoflex coilovers from a mate, practically brand new! Went in with ease over a sunny afternoon.

Then a few days ago finally acquired some new wheels!
Preowned Rays Volk TE37 in bronze

F: 18x8.5 +30

R: 18x9.5 +38

Popped them on the next arvo and loving the fitment! Nothing too crazy, didnt need any guard work either.

Just need to buy some new wheel nuts as I dont like my current ones and to source some centre caps too.

Put a nasty scratch in my rear bumper backing out of our new driveway the other day :/ will be next on the list to do!

That's it for now, more parts to come hopefully in the near future, which will include full exhaust, front mount, BOV, boost controller and tune.

      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

      On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok so i will NEED to have this sensor anyway even with Nistune (or standalone ECU) https://justjap.com/products/genuine-nissan-boost-pressure-sensor-evap-control-system-fits-nissan-r34-skyline-c34-nm35-stagea-pnt30-x-trail-rb25det-vq25det-sr20vet?currency=AUD&srsltid=AfmBOoqfxX48bW9bEwH62orcNhtBfp7ekAL0C9Ca89ySFGUiBzXfXeze Is this the correct one? And this is only thing i need? No other "things" connected to the sensor or something? I do have the wiring.
