But does anyone know if you could put a de exhaust on a det neo and just put a pod on the end of the intake manifold 

with a tune of course 

No point doing an exhaust or pod filter on non turbo motors. Nothing to be gained except noise and a lighter wallet. 

A bit of advice, google search all your questions and once you have exhausted that option then post in here. 

like having a turbo is obvious to the bois in blue but unless they’ve studied the car they really won’t know what parts there looking at

so what I’m gunna do is get a det neo engine block, gtt drivetrain and brakes etc

and I’m gunna put my stroker kit and bore it out and put the performance head on but take of the turbo and intercooler and put on my gt exhaust system and intake on and hopefully I might be in the 170kw range

if not it doesn’t really mater because I can put a really good turbo system on and run a solid psi without worrying about my engine internals when I get my second p’s

what are your thoughts on this

and no I’m not gunna keep this car stock until I can drive a turbo and save up for a gtt if that’s what u where gunna say

thanks jack

Ah. 16 year olds and their endless supplies of enthusiasm, money and unwillingness to listen to those who have learnt from making those same mistakes.

My tip is put the Skyline in the shed and don't drive it and instead drive a $200 FWD shitbox for 2 years. Who's going to be paying for the insurance on this R34 of yours while you drive in illegally modified on your L's and P's?

Actually I’m not gunna insure it yet lol

ive been driving since I was 6 and haven’t crashed a single vehicle 

not saying that I won’t crash but it’s a risk I’m gunna take, don’t roast me?

I’m working as an assistant at job sites doing work whenever I can and making 20 an hour which is pretty good

It's not a troll, but its a combination of inexperience really, which is fine, we all start there.

The first thing any cop will look for is a 20 year old import with a P plate on it.
The problem is a non turbo skyline, of any kind, in any form, is a completely shit performance vehicle.

Get an 86. Turbo that when you're legally allowed.

Source: Had NA+T, then 2.9 liter stroker kit (is yours brian crower too?) then built auto, then manual, then 5 different turbo choices, now have Legal V8.

Any idea you could possibly have, has been done. Some people like myself have done all of them!

You should listen to these people.
Alternatively, make mistakes and waste money.
These are solved problems by now.

Yeah your all right

i had my whole build planned out but I never really thought about what has already been tried 

I’ve done a lot of body work on this car and I got it for only $4000 
 

I’ve cleaned and polished every part of this car but apart from a k and n pod filter everything other than body work is stock so I’m not having much thought about getting a gtt now

i would really like to keep this gt and just swap it later on for a det neo

should I just keep it stock and clean and put some good brakes and a solid shift kit on and det neo swap it when I get my full license

thanks 

jack

 

And no im not rich but I’ve got a decent job for my age and yes I will get insurance

was a decision I made on the spot and didn’t think through 

sorry for not listening to you guys 

Thanks

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
