Yeah Jeremy, dont go all out yet.

Because big power costs a lot to get but..... thats only half of it.

You will need other things upgraded to make it useable and safe.

What some people do is work out a final goal, and buy things that will work for that goal. You dont have to have it all at once.

Brakes, maybe wheels and tyres, clutch, possibly driveshaft, diff centre, better suspension, instruments, etc.

Try and write a list of everything and add up the cost, its not cheap. Its almost not worth it when you look at it that way.

For example if you get a computer, get one that will accomplish what you want before moving on to a better car.

Would you bother spending that much on a gtt or just save for a gtr one day?

This can take a while to figure out, and the more you know the easier it is.

And, yes, google is the only way you will ever find out enough. :yes:

Awww, nice.

But look closer, it has old 32 syndrome, a hit in the front has pushed the headlights in a bit at the centre. (Not as bad as mine)

GTSTs and such were not pampered and looked after like some GTRs.

Also a reminder that some of us are heading to sdma tomorrow for some quality queanbo hillclimbing - http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/446214-sunday-at-sutton-rd-hillclimbs/

You know the deal! The more the merrier blah blah :P

    • Bah! I can't see the point in custom number plates at all. I went to the rego office, fished through a box of "premium" plates (the ones that had the "not as tall" option for the front plate) and picked the one that had a 32 in it. That's the limit of the effort and cost I will put into number plates. The only plate that I'd consider paying for would be 2332, but that's not possible here because it already exists from probably 90 years ago, and it would cost a fortune to obtain it, if it were available.
    • After chasing my tail with LS results..... and cheaper than a turbo swap... How confident are you that the dyno is accurate relative to other results? How fast is the car - What MPH does it actually run? Is this similar to what people running this power would expect?
    • Hi mate I am having an identical issue with my 98 R34 GTT. The engie suddenly cuts out under load at about 3-4k, black smoke out exhaust. Almost feels like traction control kicking in. No CEL but still going to check codes later today. Car was sitting in the shed for about 5 months before hand and only idled a few times, took her out with about 1/4 tank, filled up and thats when the issues started happening.  Threw on a spare set of coils/harness and checked plugs which was no help. Recently had fuel pump/filter changed so surely thats not the issue unless condensation in fuel, I just havent had the time to drain it It's running a hi flow turbo, bosch 1000cc injectors, walbro 450L, Z32, Nistune etc... All about 2000km old.
    • I always wonder where the obsession with legal/illegal spacing on number plates in the UK comes from. Because it comes up in comments in every UK-based video I see on youtube. From my point of view all of your plates look a bit odd. Just because there are no markings whatsoever. In Australia we have the state that has to be on it. In Europe you get stamps and state logos. Yours look a bit like a throwaway draft that people then stuck with. And attached with blu tack so that it falls off at the slightest disturbance. Not trying to hate, but it's interesting how things are done in different countries. Do you have to follow a lettering convention when choosing a custom plate?
    • Hybrid sounds like a supercharger... It's half a turbo, with a belt to drive it! Oh wait, they're just called super chargers...
