    Looked at those, that's R35 money again. Nothing grabs me. I might just put a newer/nicer clutch and some cams and springs in the 34 and leave it at that and see if the market keeps appreciating or starts falling off while I wait to see what happens with the 35 market.

    R34 GT-R AC Condenser As per the title. Need a condenser after damaging mine.
  3. No Crust Racing
    Can you please give me the part number? Looks like min can't be repaired and they are hard to find second hand.

    Well if I did this, my aim would be to dial in the gears to try and not push it so far to the right, I can deal with peak not increasing much if response can be improved/area under the graph in total increased.

    Josh reckons it will not only make that power, but do it on less boost because it will flow more efficiently, that's gotta be a good thing.
  6. No Crust Racing
    Have still been chatting to Kelford about cams, Josh said he would recommend springs at this boost. Something else crossed my mind. If I did put these cams in, and he's right about there being 10-12% gain, that would put me around/maybe over 500rwhp. It's a stock bottom end, how much can they take?
  7. No Crust Racing
    I dunno, I asked a few Qs in the 35 section and got crickets. Have they all moved to FB?
  8. No Crust Racing
    You've done this?
  9. No Crust Racing
    The car needs an alignment anyway so I'd just have it all done at once. It was more about whether the valving will be too firm anyway and I'm wasting my time. In your case that would have been less an issue as you wanted it firmer.
  10. No Crust Racing
    I've got BC ERs in my 34 and I find them to be too firm for the street. Justjap said I could drop the spring rates down to 8/6 from 9/7 without revalving but couldn't guarantee it wouldn't bottom out at the track. Given i will be lucky to track the car 1-2 times in the time I own it and will only be on street tyres, I doubt that will be an issue. For $380 worth of springs, is that worth bothering to try or will the damper just be too firm anyway? Car has to go in for an alignment anyway so there's already labour costs.

    Broken all the time, cost 20k in repairs, still loved it. Are you sure it wasn't a GT-R Having a hard time finding good info on what "needs" to be done to an earlier 35 trans to protect it.

    A45 is a hot hatch, as cool as they look. Mustang I imagine would be depreciation city. The more I look the more I see why the 35 is such a big deal. There's basically nothing in that price bracket that can match it performance wise and it's still apparently semi comfy.
  13. No Crust Racing
    Been driving it regularly since the tune, went for a blast today too, was good
  14. No Crust Racing
    Hmmm, I've seen a few with "box upgrades" but I dont know enough to be sure of what absolutely needs doing. Clips, pressure sensors, etc
  15. No Crust Racing
    Thanks for sharing, matches a few things I read. I'd need to save a bit more to afford one that new.
  16. No Crust Racing
    Bingo... If there was someone here who had 35 experience that would help me feel comfortable. I have the only 34R here and there's one 35 within 200ks radius.
  17. No Crust Racing
    No hot hatches. Looked at c63 but as with every other bloody thing listed, there's also a list of common faults. Then again, the RB isn't exactly known for being bulletproof either. I did consider putting nicer shocks and clutch in the 34 to make it a bit less harsh to just drive. Its ok when you're on it, but a bit too firm and rough when you just wanna cruise (BC ER coilovers, already got damper and rebound on max soft, and ATS twin plate carbon). Any choice is a compromise in some ways. Maybe that's why the 35 is popular, keep the performance but a bit nicer to live with. It's the box issues that scare me.
  18. No Crust Racing
    Ideally no more than what I can get for the 34, less is better. It's a weekender only, so 2 doors is fine, a bit of go with some tuning potential witj bolt ons, can do manual or auto depending on the auto. Depreciation is something I guess I should consider also. I went back and had a look at the E92, seems people can get just on 300rwkw NA which isn't too shabby. Would be older than the other examples I listed though.
  19. No Crust Racing
    Cheapest is in the low 90s, I won't get that for my 34. That's R35 money also and given the performance difference, not hard to see why they are so popular.
  20. No Crust Racing
    Not a fan of the IS-F, RC-F too pricey.
  21. No Crust Racing
    Pretty ugly, a 2 door version would help.
  22. No Crust Racing
    There's not much else that's got a bit of poke, is newer and comfier, and has a bit of class. I'm not into hot hatches, the TT was a stretch as it was. Lexus maybe?

    Sell 34R for something Euro? Just looking at the moment, but what are peoples thoughts on these 3. http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Audi-S5-2012/SSE-AD-4247803/?Cr=4 http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/_/SSE-AD-3914407 http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/_/SSE-AD-3960289 I realise my 34 will suck the doors off all of those, but I'm looking at what's around for the money I'd get selling that's newer, comfier, quieter, etc. I have the Silvia for track duties/thrashing/that raw feeling etc. The GT-R is kind of in limbo for me so I'm just have a look around. I was warned off the 4.2L Audi V8 and the E92 M3 styling doesn't do much for me. R35s seem too expensive for the age/potential repair costs etc. Also there's nobody here that can deal with an R35s more complicated issues if they did arise.
  24. No Crust Racing
    I damaged mine in the GTR while doing an intercooler install, woops. Are all 34 condensers the same?
  25. No Crust Racing
    He also added: No problem what so ever Dan I’m glad to help, just for a matter of interest Tomei pon cams are 9.15mm cam lift on both and are 8.7mm valve lift on the intake and 8.77mm on the exhaust, that also means they run very large ramp heights or in other words big valve clearances, that says the lobe is lazy and will have more seat timing that inherits a loss in throttle response, just thought I would put that out there.
