hahah lol at this thread now, any bets on how long till mods shut it down seeing as most of it has nothing to do with forced induction??!

but hey, while we're talking... one thing i considered when i first got the GTR was to put my old GTS series 1 spoiler on it, and get a GTS25T sticker for the bootlid, and ditch the GTR badge, im sure it would be taken as a GTS with the GTR guards and kit etc, and shock a lot of ppl when it blows them off the line :D

curious as to the proffesion of jopjop also!

Ok Ok...

Wow, Did not expect this...

1..I dont want a fancy house, my house is quite fine thank you very much.. My uncle use to own it from built and I love it..

2..I work very hard, sometimes too hard, 10 to 16 hours a day.. I am a computer programmer by day and after that I sell Japanese video games for dreamcast ,ps2 gamecube etc..

3..I am not a bragger, as you said , my house is nothing flash, so that shows im not

4..I LOVE CARS, im 31 now, and have OWNED 63 cars so far, lost heaps on them, but have had fun doing so. There is a purple R33 GTS-T I used to own, made it into a GTR just not the motor.. It had number plates GZILLA, It was a 95 model, I sold that car for a profit.. so It cant be that bad to do this stuff.

5..I HATE Ferrari. I love Lambos, but why have one, its not for street its for someone to put in the garage and sit there,, I love Jap cars, and 1 other thats, BMW

6..Its 5am at the moment, sorry for any mistakes....

7..When I done this conversion, I went to nissan (as I know heaps of people in Nissan) and worked out an outline of what I wanted to do, after doing all the work myself nissan australia said nissan japan wanted to know why a whole list of gtr parts were used, nissan took heaps of photos of my gtt and sent them over to nissan japan, they said that my conversion was fantastic, and said nothing of the badges..

8..lastly I cannot sell my R34, I brought it Brand new, and its been so good to me, I will keep going anolg.

Now instead of saying take the badge of noone has asked th most the questions nissan japan could not even work out..

IE.... How do the seats bolt it? as the GTT has a completly diff floor pan.. Ill tell you, Change it, oh yes I used to be a panel beater and spray painter.

How can the MFD screen work? injectors are diff voltage, MDF cant read it? Throttle poss if Diff, etc etc.. It took a lot of man hours.. I was them with a multi meter, and no workshop man.. It was no easy task, but everything works, just not g-meter.

and no one see the pain of rad support changeing, and you cant just change the rear quartets, you have to do the inners as well

FOr the record, My car is quickier then a stock GTR R34 so, I will pass for one, as comments about VL's dragging me, witch also I have lost my licence 5 times, and even now have 3 months to go, so I dont drag. and I people dont drag me anyway, its them saying " man that is the best gtr ive seen..... or the best one is an RX7 ser 6 with me next too him at the lights, lights go greeen he talks off like a bullet and blows an apex seal in 30 meters,, I pass at normal speed..

Well Ive said what I want to say. Thank you for your time

Relax mate. I know you might be pissed off with the responses you got, but I wasn't criticising your work, just pointing out this has been done (and documented) before. For example (and so people searching might find something useful):

Still, its nice to see someone in Australia has done it (IIRC, its been done in the UK and HK as well as JP). I might give you a buzz some time if I get stuck doing mine :P

when have i ever claimed it to be a gtr or something it isn't? NEVER!

JOP - I say well done to you.

you've accomplished alot in the 31 years you've been around.

You'll obviously go ahead with engine, gearbox and driveline mods soon enough, when you have the right funding.

all the best to you mate..

let the people judge all they want.

after all, they are just a bunch of people behind monitors connected to the interweb who feel like they need to let others know of their hatred for gtr badges on non gtr's.

RRR32_GoDzIlLa thats a lot of sarcasm (take it to ns.com) for someone whos posted on here only 17 times! You may or may not have huge power with your cars, either way that doesnt make you a good driver. And im sure if jopjop wanted to, he could have as much power as he wanted, he obviously isnt limited by his wallet.

hey jop, good response up there, hehe

might i suggest you try to get hold of a later model GTR motor, such as an r33 one, as opposed to a r32 one? Just as your going to so much trouble, you may as well get the slightly better and newer motor in there. That is unles you were planning to rebuild it first anyway..

i felt the sarcasm was necessary

i dont have huge power but i don't boast that i do, so i was saying if he wanted to say that he blows away gtrs he should explain how. as i have a lot of respect for the 34 gtr's and wouldnt say that and i have it over them. the car is a great package and most people who can afford to buy a 34gtr could prob afford to do some minor mods to bump up its output.

this thread has deffinately got out of control....

jopjop mate id like to say sorry dude, some of these people think that their comments are cool!!!

anyways, as for wat mods to do next, i rekon go for the rb26dett, get urself a 33gtr engine, and spend the money on rebuilding that with a nice set of say N1 turbo's and wack that in... after all u have such a clean and remarkable 34GTR look alike y not have a little bit of GTR power behind it...

i noticed you said you own the GTR outright...you dont coz theres a little plate that says ECR34 on the firewall;)secondly....i have seen this car and looks to be a nice job(looking at it on the side of the road)And can i ask why you changed the rad support?I had a huge stack in mine and i put a 34 4 Door front on mine and all i had to change was the lower tie barand the chassis rails....and to those who said it cant become 4WD think again....change the floor pan and the chassis rails and its there...the front coil supports are the same......you have done a nice job and i see why your jumping on the defencive...however theres no need to be so cocky ie "questions that nissan cant even answer" there are alot of us that have studied our own car right down to the last nut bolt screw and wire.....

    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
