Currently mapped for 1 bar just as when mapped 2 weeks ago z32 afm turned out to be faulty so was mapped as far as can on standard afm. I have a z32 and its due to be mapped again by my own tuner, to see how 1.4 bar goes...Should go very well. may also change to Link ecu system.

Only 3 bad pics taken today when was getting the pro pics taken decided to snap 3 on my mobile, but better pics are taken, just need to wait for him to sort them and upload them

I'm surprised those 2wd skylines are not more popular.

I love it, having had 3 R33 before its quite different. Love it so far, and red is rarely seen on roads in any skyline

David _b · 18 Nov 2012 at 14:38

i have only tootled about in it, so far i have had it light wheels as far as 3rd gear and only seen a peak of 0.65 bar on boost controller lol.... So should be a fairly interesting drive at 1.4 bar. My last skyline ran 1.6 bar on high boost and was...interesting

Looks nice there matey, just a quick note, someones fitted the none-Xenon R34 GT (none turbo) headlights so have a good look for a prior front end smash as I can't think of any reason why someone would replace the Xenons otherwise.

I really miss mine (R666GTT)

Ooo, and I think the rear foglight looks nicer if you move it to the right side reverse light.

Front end is completely straight. It is possible to get not xenon lights in the R34 gtt. Everything is as striaght and as original as you could get, factory. The rear fog will likely be removed

Hot pink.. Only 'certain' people can pull that off

Very nice, I did contemplate one but they are too wide for where I drive to enjoy. And unfortunately for me I really don't like the looks

Awesome awesome car tho.

Yeh, it feels wider than my r33's but not sure on the actual dimensions, i am curious though as my side garden where i store the toys has a tight entrance and the r33's always took to be careful when coming/going, only few inches per side spare

David _b · 18 Nov 2012 at 16:45

My roads are not much better, but its not a daily so kinda can pick and choose when suits me. But, the daily is a bit sick at minute (see my mondeo thread) so possibly have to use it for a week or 2. yeh, i will get the suspension set this week for camber etc
But yes a s2000 would be rather dainty against a r34

Only from the 4 Door GTT's, all 2 door GTT's came with Xenons as standard. Even the UK R34GTR had to use non-Xenon as they don't have auto-levelling which is required for a UK car. Most import companies will have a GT set for SVA testing and then re-fit the Xenons afterwards.

I ran r34gtt.net which was the only english language R34GTT resource site in the world until I sold mine in 2008 (check the SOC or GTR.co.uk) so I'm confident I'm not telling you porkies.

Regardless it is a nice car!

Maybe thats what has happened then, changed for SVA because of non auto leveling

Who knows, Yeh, i am happy with it. Bought and sold many cars so know its not had a whoopsie and unlike most, this has had one owner since import in 2004

To Add, I have had a s15 and s14. And R33. Hence tried a R34. Sr20 is a fantastic fantastic engine, but so is rb25.
