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. :(

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
