Right now I'm going to enjoy it stock and do a full LED conversion inside and outside like the max. 6k headlight and 3k fogs and try to find some Y34 clear tails from japan. Around spring I'll start giving it some VIP platform treatment

I didnt realize they looked like that in those years. I've seen one outside of my work but it must be of the newest gen cause the body style is COMPLETELY different.



VERY vip on the interior. I drool over it every day. Enjoy it man

Actually, doing some more recent reading. You want the FX45 IM with the front inlet from what I just read.

Something else you could consider

I approve of this changeover. I was going to get one.. until I found my AWD, twin turbo, German over-engineered tank. Ahaha. Hope to see some updates soon.

I say you throw Skyline GTR 20's on it and call it a day.

hmmm and the IM is a direct swap? no modification? would be cool having run an intake just behind the grille

Wow, these are rare. Nice pick up! I'm sure it's fun to drive considering the power and the RWD. Haha I say you take out the resonators and the muffler like what this guy did - skip to :46



Sounds SOOO good

IF you do decide to do what the above suggests...

start out with muffler delete and see how that sounds. I did it on my y33 and it sounds wonderful. not too loud. not too quiet.

either way, very nice pickup, beautiful car. I have an obsession with y34's and am torn between next car either ls430 or y34...such a rare and beautiful car.

thumbs UPPPP
