The look of my R34GTT has changed a few times over the last 2 3/4 years, with different graphics and wheels etc. But this is how it looks now with a C-West body kit and a Nismo vented carbon bonnet. It's not going to change again.........honest :wink:

Arty farty one :D

It's an R34GTT with the RB25DET Neo engine, which is currently being rebuilt with forged pistons. It was running 500bhp + on a standard bottom end with just some machining work done to the squish areas on the cylinder head and pistons. Well I say "just" :wink: it also has Tomei pon cams, a Trust TD06 25g turbo, water injection etc. etc.

It's normally my daily driver, except when there is salt on the road, when it hides away in the garage. Cars are meant to be driven and I drive this one hard :D

How may times have I read that over the years?:lol:

A lovely car Geoff. Rare that you get the go and the looks and the sound in one package. Even more rare for the owner to spank seven bells out of it at every possible opportunity.

Keep us posted on the car when you get it back from Richard :thumb:

What an incredible Skyline.
I want to see more pics and more written about the car!
What made you go for a GTT and not a GTR when you got it?

Where do you drive that Jeep around here?

Thanks Ian :D

I will do a full write up when I get it back in a few weeks time and get some pics of the engine bay. What is being done hasn't been done to an R34GTT in this country as far as I know and I am sworn to secrecy untill it is finished.

I went for a GTT rather than a GTR for two main reasons:

1. I test drove a stage one R33GTR and it left me feeling.........."Oh is that it?" as at the time I had a 200SX S14a with 284bhp and loved the tail happiness and excitment that it gave. The GTR was perfect at putting the power down and felt uninspiring :(

2. I didn't have
