hmm depends what you want to do? Mates got r31 and i find them to be a solid car that doesnt brake :(

To give you an idea what you can do with it;

Turbo your rb30 (rb30et)

Put in an rb20 or rb25 engine :(

but if you add a turbo it would be best to upgrade your stock brakes to something like r33 gts-t brakes, also add an lsd would help get the power down better

go the 31!

definately move towards a brake upgrade even if its just good pads fluid but if your going to up their power go caliper rotor swap

pm DSTURBD if you need eny parts he farms 31s down south in the bunno area and should be able to supply anythign you need cheap

but yeah a very solid safe car to be hit in...... lol

I dont think putting a turbo on it is as easy as it sounds, you are going to spend twice the value of the car by doing that, would be better off buying something with turbo already in it.

oh and for all the ppl using the other view.

Good to see another female wanting to improve her car. :(

I agree with gun32, if thats the way you want to go. Turbo = bigger brakes needed.

Personally, I think you should just keep that car for a while & get used to driving for a start, save up money & then buy a newer car already with a turbo in it after a year or two, if power is what you want.

By putting a lot of time & money into converting a car you might in the end decide to change up after a while, so just think ahead about what you want to do, and from there it is easy. If you are going to do it, you would probably be spending as much as you would by getting something similar, like a 180sx.

Good luck, keep us updated. :(

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
