Livadia, Larnaca · Across Cyprus

Start with the car, its condition and the real target

Nick's Garage is an independent Nissan GTR specialist in Cyprus, supporting R35 diagnosis and tuning, VR38DETT engine building, GR6 transmission work, ECU calibration and 2WD / 4WD dyno development. From our workshop in Livadia, Larnaca, we assess road-performance and competition enquiries from owners across Cyprus.

The white and grey R35 photographs below show actual cars on our workshop Dynojet. The separate R38 and Skyline R32 programmes appear further down, with links to their own case studies. Each car is reviewed by generation, condition, current hardware, fuel and intended use before we agree a repair scope, power target or complete-build plan. Inspection and data come before parts.

Workshop enquiries: Monday–Friday, 09:00–13:00 and 14:00–18:00. Find Nick's Garage in Livadia, Larnaca.

Nissan GTR R35: diagnosis and EcuTek custom tuning

This full bolt-on GTR with upgraded turbos was diagnosed, its problem resolved, custom-tuned and handed back to the owner in less than three days. The custom ECU calibration was completed in-house by Nick's Garage, using EcuTek with Godzilla mode.

Vehicle-specific development

Nissan GTR R35 tuning in Cyprus

Mechanical checks, ECU identification and a review of hardware, fuel and the intended use establish the starting point. We investigate faults and supporting-system limits before proposing calibration changes or a power target.

Repaired in-house in Cyprus

GR6 gearbox diagnosis, repair and upgrades

Nissan GTR R35 GR6 diagnosis, repair and rebuilding are carried out entirely at our workshop in Livadia, Larnaca, Cyprus.

The exact unit, inspection findings and intended use determine the appropriate clutch, mechanical or driveline work.

Calibration and protection

GTR ECU calibration and logging

Factory ECU and supported management-system work is planned around the actual engine, hardware and fuel. Data logging, protection strategies and validation are part of the development process; no generic stage label guarantees a result.

Measured development

2WD and 4WD dyno development for GTRs

The Dynojet 424XLCI2 supports controlled run-in, diagnosis and repeatable development. Vehicle condition, drivetrain configuration and the purpose of the session determine the agreed test plan; a peak number alone is not the whole result.

VR38DETT engine programme

VR38DETT engine building in Cyprus

Engine inspection and rebuild planning connect measured assembly, oil control, cooling, fuel delivery, turbo-system integration and ECU protection strategies as one system. The existing engine and the complete vehicle determine the specification.

  • Inspection, measurement and documented assembly
  • Road-performance and competition applications
  • Fuel, oil and cooling-system integration
  • Calibration, logging and protection strategy
  • Controlled run-in and dyno validation

Skyline GTR and VR38 swap projects

The existing case studies document the individual cars, their specification and workshop responsibilities. The R38 is a custom PRO drift car; the GR6 services above describe the GTR R35 application and do not identify the R38's transmission.

Skyline R32, R33 or R34: start with the actual engine and ECU

For an RB25 or RB26 enquiry, send the engine code, exact ECU, fuel, current turbo and supporting hardware. We discuss engine, transmission, calibration and dyno requirements for the particular car before confirming the scope.

The Skyline GTR R34 V-Spec I dyno record and RB26 OS Giken transmission photographs are part of our existing workshop archive. The R38 above is a separate VR38DETT swap. For standalone management, explore custom ECU tuning, including MoTeC, ECU Master, Haltech, Link ECU and Syvecs.

Common GTR enquiries

Clear answers before workshop booking

Do you tune Nissan GTR R35s in Cyprus?
Yes. We assess the exact model year, vehicle condition, ECU, current hardware and fuel before agreeing calibration or development work. A Stage 1 or Stage 2 label alone does not define a safe specification or a guaranteed power increase.
Do you rebuild VR38DETT engines?
Yes. Engine inspection, repair and building are carried out in-house at our Cyprus workshop, without sending engines abroad. VR38DETT work includes measurement, assembly and planning the supporting oil, fuel, cooling and turbo systems. The scope is agreed around the actual engine, intended use and validation requirements.
Do you repair or upgrade the Nissan GTR GR6 transmission?
Yes. We repair and rebuild Nissan GTR R35 GR6 gearboxes in-house in Livadia, Larnaca, Cyprus, without sending them abroad for repair. Work can include diagnosis, service planning, clutch and mechanical repair, upgrades and driveline integration. Inspection and unit identification determine the appropriate work.
Do you provide engine and transmission services to professional workshops?
Yes. We undertake specialist engine and transmission work for professional workshops on competition and high-performance projects. Technical requirements are agreed directly, and each collaboration is handled confidentially.
Can you build a VR38-swapped Skyline GTR?
Our R38 project documents a Skyline GTR R32 rebuilt around a VR38DETT for PRO drift use. It is a custom complete-vehicle programme, not a standard R35 conversion kit. A new swap requires a separately agreed engine, transmission, driveline, fuel, cooling and electronics plan.
Can I enquire about a Skyline with an RB25 or RB26 engine?
Yes. Send the Skyline generation, engine code, exact ECU, fuel and current modifications, together with the work you need. Our published archive includes a Skyline GTR R34 V-Spec I on the workshop Dynojet and separate RB26 transmission work. The R38 is a VR38DETT swap. Each record identifies its own configuration and workshop scope; a new engine or calibration project is agreed separately.
Do you offer 4WD dyno tuning for GTRs?
Our Dynojet 424XLCI2 supports 2WD and 4WD development in Livadia, Larnaca. We check the car, drivetrain configuration, condition and session requirements before confirming the test plan; the R38 workshop photograph is not presented as a standard R35 dyno result.
Do you work with GTR owners elsewhere in Cyprus?
Yes. Owners in Limassol, Nicosia, Paphos, Famagusta and elsewhere in Cyprus can start with the same vehicle-details checklist. Our workshop is in Livadia, Larnaca; contact us before travelling or arranging vehicle transport.
What information should I send before booking a GTR inspection?
  • Exact model, year, mileage, engine, transmission and ECU
  • Current modifications, fuel, fault symptoms and diagnostic codes
  • Intended use and target power, specifying engine hp or wheel hp
  • Budget range, location, preferred timing and available photographs or reports
Send these details before booking so we can discuss the appropriate inspection or build scope.
What about price, turnaround and warranty?
Inspection findings, parts availability and the agreed scope affect the quotation and schedule. Ask us to confirm the applicable warranty and transport arrangements in writing before authorising work. This page does not promise a fixed price, completion date or shipping service.

Parts and the next step

Start with the actual vehicle

Choose the relevant route. Results show listed applications and do not confirm fitment.

ECU tune, exhaust or mechanical changes?

For a car with factory hardware, start with its condition, goal and ECU support. A remap does not automatically require an exhaust or turbo. If the target exceeds the current configuration, review logs and measurements and identify the necessary cooling, fuel, engine or transmission changes.
