Hi guys, I've recently made purchase to a 99 Skyline GTX 34 Vspec non turbo with no spoiler. There are a few things I would like to do to it, but just don't know where to start and where to look, can you guys give me some advise? Car is in stock condition. I live on the coast.

1) Full body kit and where? What choices do I have? Cost?

2) Exhaust - what kind and where?

3) Upgrade immobiliser to an alarm, how much and what brand?

4) Stereo - want to upgrade the stereo system cos it's factory. Want to put in some speakers and maybe an amp or two, but totally don't know where to start, please advise. (prefereably Pioneer or Kenwood)

Thank you :)

peace ;)

Full body kit - Check out DMD,Jetspeed etc...

Exhaust - Check out business traders for sale section in this forum

Immobiliser/Alarm - Chris Rogers (check audio section for contact details)

Stereo - Try Places like JB hifi, WOW sight n sound etc...

Post up some pics of your ride dude. Happy Skylining! :)

Ok guys here it is...please go to My Webpage and check it out in one of the photo album.

;) Due to my negligence today coming out of Chevron Renaissance in Surfers, I almost run over this pedestrian. He is ok, and unharmed. In return, I got an ear-full of swearing (I deserved it) and worst of all, a few light dints on my Skyline's hood... *cry*

:P

:P thanks for the low down guys, be right on it with the alarm system!

the car currently has a mongoose immobiliser in it, if i was to upgrade it, should i stick with a mongoose alarm? what options do i have? and where and who should I see on the coast to get it done?

peace :D

Ashmore ey... think I've seen your car, very tidy.

;) really? thx

mongoose isnt such a bad alarm, just depends what you willing to spend.

:) I was originally thinking of Viper, but then I've heard they don't make Viper Alarms anymore...I don't even know what brands there is to choose ffrom as a matter of fact ;) Know how much it usually cost to upgrade the immobiliser to a full alarm system(any brand)? If not, who should I speak to about it on the coast?

thx for putting up with my 20 questions :D

i'd also advise against advertising the brand of your alarm...just gives potential theives more info on what they're working with.

Saying it has an alarm is enough imo.

if that pedestrian damaged ur car (even if you were in the wrong) I would have run the prick over...there's no need to take it out on your pride and joy

:P You're right on that one! But I found out after I got home so...Oh well, the car is too shiny to acknowledge it from a far...but up close...*cry*

was the pedestrian on a pedestrian crossing?

I think you know where I'm heading with that question.

Also are you dead sure thats a GTX V-Spec.

Coz you have the GT-T wheels and a front strut brace.

If you have the GT-T front brakes and suspension as well, your car is a GT-V.

I could be wrong, just overly suspicious/curious at what I can gather from your pics. <_<

Yeah cause flesh and blood can be fixed just like metal and glass... That missing head will buff right out...

No, He wasn't on a pedestrian crossing. I "nudged" him at an entrance to a car park.

;) I am pretty sure it's a GTX Vspec. That's what my papers saids. Unless I am illiterate. Other than that, I am not so sure with Skylines. :unsure: How do I check it out?

Ask someone who has the Nissan FAST software (like me) to run your VIN# for you.  From all the research I've done I haven't come across a GTX V-Spec but like I said I could be wrong.

:P sorry but isn't it rather dangerous distributing your VIN# around over the internet? :blink:

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
