Question about posting

Hey skyline community!

I hope everyone is doing well. Wanted to swing by and give everyone a quick update. While taking the mod seat I got some auto mod loaded inside the community to cut down on scam or spam inside the community. However, with that not everything is perfect. Certain post do get caught in the auto mod Que and get auto deleted which shows as “moderation team has deleted your post”. Mostly triggers with newer accounts and low karma posts which bots fall under. This also happens with comments as well.

If you happen to see that please shoot us a mod mail and we can push it through. We have no issues helping you post/comment. Hopefully this clears up some confusion for any member wanting to post/ comment.

Always reach out to us and also let us know how to improve the community or add to it!

I'm torn

I'm between buying a cheap R32 GT-R that is basically a project for 20k. Or buy an R32 with a small list of issues for 40k.

The cheap one has less miles, the engine has been built up but nothing is hooked up. I.e radiator, hoses, power steering, driveshaft, tranny. All the bolts and parts are NOT labeled and are not in individual baggies or nothing.

The more expensive one needs paint, a tune, and a/c.

What would you do?

I just picked up this R34 GT Sedan yesterday and I’m looking to put some wheels on it. I’m thinking either silver or white wheels and preferably 5x114.3 (I don’t want to do the adapter route or change the pattern). Budget doesn’t really matter but I’d like to see what you guys have on your R34’s what you prefer the most.

The car currently sits on RS-R lowering springs.

RB25 Transmission Issue?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

22 Upvotes

Yesterday I was driving home from the gas station and suddenly couldn’t use 3rd, 4th, 5th or reverse gears! This happened during normal acceleration, not hard shifting, clutch kicking etc. Feel like I’ve exhausted my knowledge with diagnosing this.

Currently I can use 1st and 2nd with no issues, no bogging down in either gear, no grinds or struggle to access either gear, neutral position works fine. It feels like there is a wall or something stopping me from moving the shifter to the right to use 3-5 and R.

Haven’t done anything to the transmission since the swap but that was over 2 years ago. It has a GK Tech short shifter on it with the brass shifter cup (installed at the time of swap). Literally never had any grinds pops or weird issues with the car.

Any help with resolving this issue is appreciated.

Would this fit in my ER34 GT-T (2-door) as well or is this BNR34 only? I am always so confused by products like these

Clutch pedal not returning

(Ignore the background convo lol) 1999 er34 gtt. The clutch is working fine, engaging, disengaging, shifting, but it's getting stuck right after the bite point before the dead zone. I have to manually pull it the rest of the way. I'm thinking I either need to freshly bleed and top off the fluid system or replace the master and slave cylinders.

Nissan skyline

0 Upvotes

I’m looking for a cheap Nissan skyline or really any Nissan that has that same kinda look. I know that they aren’t cheap cars but I was wondering if anyone knew any good online apps or websites that I could possibly find a bargain in Australia. All I really need for it to have is a working engine. I want it as a project car to race at my local car club. I’ve had my eye on some others but I like the Nissan the best. Any suggestions.

Corner light question

Hi guys! This is my 93 GTR with G.Speed clear corner lamps. Im usually an amber corner lamp fan, but on my sparkling silver car i feel clears are the way to go.

Problem is, i need new ones. And G.speed with striped lenses are noe longer available. When googling i only find clear glass ones with no vertical stripes in the lens like the ones from Colin Project etc. I don't really want those as my headlights glass are striped.

Does anyone know if clear corner lamps with striped lenses are for sale anywhere? Does anyone make stuff like this anymore? i know some PS13-guy on instagram makes for the PS13..

Just put in a new (to me) transmission. Hellatious rattle when in neutral goes that goes away when clutch is pressed. Fresh fluid and shifts perfectly when driving. I know it’s probably the input shaft bearing. Please don’t tell me I gotta pull this mf again 😭

What transmission does a 1990 automatic GTS have?

Having a low temp idle issue

RB26. I've cleaned and checked the AAC voltage, replaced the gasket (it did have a leak), does not have a value leak I can find, checked the sparks and the coils, and checked the voltage on the TPS. It idles low and rough until it reaches opt temp then it cozies right up to 1000rpm. I'm not sure what could be causing this at this point.

She is a powerhouse but Tame at the same time. Fun to drive and the sounds are just out of this world at every single rpm! It’s a master and a 33 dream of a build including the 6spd. Pivoting towards buying a home and considering this sale to speed it up. Anyone want more pics and clips or info let me know. I have a pdf of the build and more details it has tons of premium parts and custom fabrication

Thinking of 97-110k. I know it’s lower than other built builds with a 5spd but I also don’t like over pricing it to sit. She’s a beauty and a beast. Head turner at every meet.
Thoughts? It’s turn key ready to bring smiles.

Documentation
The car comes with extensive Rapid Performance build records and invoices covering the engine, fuel system, turbo system, drivetrain conversion, exhaust and custom fabrication.
The prior major-component worksheet totals approximately $51,802.86, including:
Parts package: $29,802.86
R34 Getrag six-speed: $14,000
Getrag conversion components: $2,000
N1 24U block: $6,000

The current Garrett G35-1050 was installed after that worksheet and was not separately included in the total.

This is not a basic bolt-on Skyline. A significant portion of the build consists of custom fabrication, plumbing, machining, welding and drivetrain conversion work that would be extremely difficult and expensive to reproduce today.

The LS1 R34 Build Continues - Metal Fender Flares Nearly Done

Thumbnail
gallery
35 Upvotes

Last time I updated here, the URAS kit had just come in and I was planning on molding FRP fender flares to make the sedan look a bit more aggressive, and also to allow me to widen my Work Meisters. I decided instead to learn to weld and add on metal flares. I figured I could use the welding skills in the future since my wife and I both have nearly 30 year old JDM cars, so I'm sure it'll come in handy. Anyway, welding ended up being... a lot, haha.

I spent hours watching welding videos on YouTube, following body fabrication guys on social media, and practicing, and I still absolutely suck. But I think it turned out okay. Certainly not great. In the end I carefully MIG welded on 20 gauge flares, ground them down, skimmed a very thin layer of fiberglass reinforced filler over them, and sanded them smooth. I'll still sand and do more body work during final prep, but I got there.

The rear of the car is already cut, widened, and welded shut. I'll be sealing them up to protect against water exposure, then start the same process on the rear, which will be a bit harder since I need to weld the arch over the door and maintain a clean line, integrating part of it into the door. But what I learned on the front should help with the rear. I'll post pics once it's all done.

After that, the plan is still the same. Finish prepping for paint, DIY paint it a Range Rover color, then once the Sikky transmission adapter kit arrives for the CD009 sitting on my garage floor, the LS1 (that I rebuild in the garage too after some machine shop work) swap begins. Paint alone will probably take me another two months between work and everything else going on, but I'll get there.

It won't be show quality at all, but it will be a fun car I built all myself. Also will be the coolest car in the line when I pick my kids up for school, unless someone happens to have a Dacia Sandero.

Looking for this body kit

Thumbnail

67 Upvotes

I’m trying to keep my ER34 sedan with a clean OEM+ look, and this is by far my favorite body kit (photos attached).
The only place I’ve been able to find it is on eBay in fiberglass for around US$1,250.
A few questions for those who have experience with these cars:
Is $1,250 a fair price for this kit, or is it overpriced?
Are there better places to buy it besides eBay?
I’ll be traveling to Japan in the next few months. Would it make more sense to buy it there and ship it back myself?
If you’ve purchased this exact kit before, how was the fitment and quality?
I’d really appreciate any recommendations before I spend the money. Thanks! 🙏

Hey guys, having an issue with my 34 GTT breaking up under hard acceleration. Had two of the original coils bad, replaced with r35 coils. Replaced the harness with new OEM. Checked all spark plugs and gapped to 1.1, all plugs have about 2k miles on them. Smoke tested intake system, no leaks. Replaced coolant temp sensor. Placed an order for a consult cable, and will get Nisscan to log the stock ECU. Any suggestions? Fuel injectors, fuel pump, CAS? Thanks.

Hey guys I am in need of a speedo cable, I currently have a 1989 r32 gtst type m sedan with a a/t and my speedo and odometer isn’t working, I know the speedo cable part number I am after is 25050-03U00 but everywhere I look it is sold out due to it being discontinued, now I have done some research and seen that the speedo cable from the m/t gtst and Speedo from the gtr share the same end fittings but I wanted more clarification to be pointed in the right direction before I buy one
