R34 Owners - Holy Advice Needed

[satanic]

Hello to all you fellow 34 goers...

Just bought my R34 GT-T, and was wondering if I could round up some advice/opinions on where to go next. I don't want to be jumping into any big projects before considering all options.

Advice Sought After:

1) Basic Performance Upgrades

2) Intermediate Performance Upgrades

3) "Let's not go there" Performance Upgrades

4) Audio Systems that work well in a R34 (or any ICE systems)

5) Styling Advice

If you guys/girls can give me some idea of where to start looking that would be great. I can't seem to find much in terms of the 34 in Australia at the moment.

Thank you all for your help~

Heaps of parts and styling stuff on the above websites. As for audio gear, id just go to any car audio place and pick their brains about it.

Hope this helps

Firstly, spend a couple of months at least digesting the stuff on this forum. There is a lot of information here.

In order:

1.

cat back exhaust system.

make sure you have a proper 3" cat

turbo to cat zorst, best to get a split dump/front pipe

high flow panel filter in stock box

boost controller of some sort, 10-12 psi

2.

suspension (many options)

front mount intercooler

fuel pump

regulator

injectors

turbo upgrade

oil cooler

3.

diff

engine rebuild with forgies etc.

At some stage your clutch or transmission (depending on auto or manual) will go and have to be rebuilt or replaced.

4.

I have an amp running a dual coil 10" sub in a box in the boot. Deck still runs the standard speakers although this not ideal it does the job.

5.

East Bear I like but there are heaps of options. Body kits are expensive to get here from Japan.

what bob said....except in part 2 you should have an aftermarket computer of some sort in there...if its a manual than you cant go past the Apexi Power FC if its auto than your fu(ked...hahaha jk....probably either a chipped ecu or a greddy e-manage.

as for styling.......yes east bear is nice....so is c west and uras and top secret.

Who stocks the styling parts... C-West sounds good!!

And yes, it's an Auto (hangs head in shame), I can drive manual - but unfortunately my missus cannot! So what's the best option from here?

Thanks guys!

pfft...... C-West is crap..............

I've got a Tiptronic Auto at the moment... the semi-manual shifter is already a lot of fun. Just need to get the dynamics of it totally correct.

Went to NSPM today to get a Xenon Lights upgrade (actually a swap with another car awaiting compliance). In the meantime, I also picked up a set of TEIN adjustable suspension coilovers... ride is much better, harder and steadier - only problem is that it has lowered my car to a level which doesn't allow me to get into my own driveway!!! BUGGER!

Will work something out tomorrow morning.

Any of you guys from the Northshore?
