  • 98 skyline r34 gtt

    so
    this happened;





    I saw it at a meet, got chatting to the owner and he mentioned it was for sale. Half an hour and a test drive later, we shook hands and I agreed to pick it up the week after.
    Its the kinda car you drive and can't stop smiling while you drive.

    So, as we can see, its been done for practicality and not really a coherent look. The previous owner fitted some well-thought out mods that brought it up to a fair 340bhp;

    remap by fcm motorsport / BLITZ front mount intercooler / cobra monoco bucket seats with simota 4 point harness / nismo down pipe / decat / japspeed spec 2 exhaust / splitfire coil packs / ultralight 18" wheels / sparco steering wheel with quick release / HKS mushroom filter / Japspeed front adjustable camber arms / japspeed rear camber arms / conceptua bycass lock out bar / h&r lowering springs all round

    But now, it is mine. I want to tidy it up and carry on where the previous owner left off. I first went over to driftworks and picked up a set of Driftworks Control System 2 CS2 Coilovers to kill those lowering springs.

    I've emailed a local paintshop for a quote on a full respray in Midnight Purple III. Stickers are slowly but surely coming off, as is that BeeR launch control.

              I love you.

              Looking forward to your progress, I'm incredibly jealous that you get to own and drive such a fantastic car.

              (PS- those tow hooks should get taken off, set on fire, and thrown into the woods)

                unfortunately the tow hooks are staying, but they are going a less obnoxious colour - i need them on there for drift days, they have to be easy to spot so i can be towed off track if needed.

                it really is a smile-generator - kids on the side of the road, adults at petrol stations, passengers... nobody gets away without a grin on their face.

                ive had it on a dyno and it ran 340 bhp, looking for a remap now to get it a little neater, the coilovers are on the back and its going in to http://www.autotorque.net/ on sunday night for a full check over, new bushes, front coilover setup, underseal.. basically a good old tidy.

                looks like midnight purple + two new rear arches (theyre a little bubbly, fuck rust) is gonna cost me in the region of £6k... may or may not be booked in for the 5th january.

                  Looking forward to seeing the re-spray. Do you have any videos of you sliding? Or any videos of the exhaust in general

                      Waiting on the vids from the drift day, there was a go-pro on the sucker for a while... will make an exhaust video for you guys at some point, she's off to the shop this evening

                      my s/w sticker went on the passenger rear window today (:

                        Bastard has developed a misfire again, so for now here's a video from the last time I fixed the bastard misfire. Seems the shop did some re-wiring but ignored that I'd asked them not to touch any of THOSE wires, they did. Now its a bird's nest and figuring out which one is the issue again.



                        If she's running nicely again by the 15th I'll be taking her drifting.

                        I'm hunting down a set of black everything for the engine bay, you can see why in that video. Previous owner wasn't exactly good with colour.
