Got the 34 back. The Good: makes 204.4kw's at the wheels. pulls nicely. can make up to 230rwkw's. Sounds Tough. the bad: Blew the turbo gasket already. the $500 stealth intercooler is no good for the amount of power I want to make it's more suited for a mildly modded r32 - swaps gonna happen with my 32 I think. Police think i'm a drug dealer (guess that stops em from thinking I'm a hoon eh) some other stuff I can't think of at the moment.

They had a deal going for $1000 (I think they are still doing it) Safc is a really bad choice it's only a piggy back system and in my experience thats just throwing the money in a hole. Boz has the right of it the stock ecu as a standard unit is quite the clever bit of tech, combining it with a nistune to make it a tuneable ecu with the standard safeguards in place you'd be mad not to utilise it.

I knida went to a dyno day... My 34 was on the dyno and I had to go visit it twice, once for fuel the other for a new wastegate actuator as the stock one was crap. with the doddgy actuator it was making 186.something kw's at the wheels so after that is done it should make good power now.

I got my nistune done at EFI about a year ago, Car still hauls ass and has had no issues shaun is like the car wisperer every car i've seen come out of there is a monster compared to when it went in.

Still got my 32 at the moment just can't go wandering around when I am on call.

Brought a car from a car yard and the suspension is rooted...bottom line they are dicking me around. My life is so boring when I am on call, The money is good but man not being able to drink or go out is lame. Entertain me

Welcome Excuses. So I spoke to Autoshop today and they agreed to give me a cheque for $300, Then 15 mins later they called me again saying that they were not sending me the cheque anymore as the mechanic has ordered suspension for my car (without even looking at it) and thus they can't justify the expenditure of supplying me with the previously agreed amount. I have since sent them a detailed Email listing all contact and what was said during this contact and They are now failing to respond. David the sales guy has been helpful but the owner just seems to keep fobbing me off rather than having a conversation and sticking to the inital agreement. I'll leave it over the weekend and see what happens next week if they haven't given me a desire result by then I will go see them on the saturday.

-1 for smoking it all and not sharing.

We will have a 200sx I believe and a appearance of probably one of the most interesting cars I have ever seen (all the work is custom done by the owner). The BC's are running me $1500 Fitted. Coilpack's arrived today and will be fitted before the tune as peter want to check out the plugs pre tune and make sure she is running well before powering her up.

Yeah when the car comes back from it's tune (giving peter at RPM my business like I said I would 3 years ago) she's off to option 1 to get some BC Racing V1's as the HSD TT's are out of stock. Not sure if Autoshop is going to come to the party with paying some of the cost for the new shocks I'll chase that up and report back, Be f**ked if I'll let em put 2nd hand shocks in my baby just to get it out of statutory warranty period tho. And for the people who have yet to learn this we are doing our weekly meeting at Fatsta Pasta Morayfield (google it for address) 7-7:30 pm start till whenever everyone is over it. We will have a few non Nissan's this week I believe so the meets may take on a more general JDM feel on occasions which should bolster our ranks and also give us some people to convert to the RB way of thinking. So Come on down and join in the prattle about skylines and cars in general.

Intercooler is in...I am sore and not happy with it but it is in good enough to tune the car with then I can do Pretty later. Oh and she is now 3" all the way through.

Was out helping (mostly watching) steve put his new engine in. Tomorrow the new wing goes on and then it's back to work where all my goodies will be delivered this week hopefully. In other news my Power FC already has a tune for 200rwkw's with the mods I will have so it will bolt up and off to the tuners it goes.

So After today I have the following goodies comming for the car: FMIC Turbo to CAT 3" exhaust (currently CAT back thanks for mentioning that it is quiet outside the car bodo) Carbon Fibre GT Wing (I can't help myself) Yellow Jacket Coil Packs Power FC (picking it up on the weekend) Suspension (being replaced under warranty if they offer a partial payment for it I will do BC Racing V1 Coilovers ) Alarm and Gizmo MS2 boost controller May need to do the clutch as well. that leaves me with a tune to go then.

I just brought my 34 from there on monday and David said they have about a month until they wind down.

It's all good man, Were doing next week at Fasta Pasta Morayfield.

Were meeting at ash's place before we head off I believe. I gotta go grab another line owner as his is off the road.

sounds like a plan let me know what you guys come up with

Oh yeah i'll bring the new toy, we meeting at Southbound BP at 7:15 ish again or no? Chris if you read this prior to tomorrow night can you please bring the R32 window switch setup you have I keep forgetting to remind you. We may be a little bit later than 7:30 like 7:45 as missus is doing personal training till 7:00 or so apparently even tho she knows wednesday nights are skyline night.

Well I did just get my 34 and to not bring her down and put her on the dyno would be poor form, I'll be down provided work don't have me on call without notice.

Ladies and gents after many test pilot sessions, hours of staring at cars on the internet, 1000km's of driving and way too much mc'donalds A clear winner has been chosen. I purchased a...Drum roll please...A 1998 R34 Coupe 84k km's on the clock with some sexy shoes and a sweet exhaust she is already packing a hks ssq (real deal one not a knock off ) and what appears to be some coil overs (not sure might just be some stock shit) To say hello to her I have already ordered my stealth intercooler kit and my CF GT wing. I will be looking for a power FC for her if anyone knows someone looking to sell one for an ER34 also grabbed an alarm and gizmo EBC / Gauge with a turbo timer.

I went for a drive in the Cammo S15 (think tiger cammo) It is scary fast like shit your pants if you don't have huge brass ones powerful. It has had the engine carefully built and tuned it is making 420hp atw (RB25DET) she sounds sexual and looks great. Downside is that they still have to get the rev's gauge sorted out, speedo sorted out and wire up the gauge pods that now reside in the middle vent holes, uni's need doing and some new front tires. oh and a new clutch something tells me it will eat a few of those. she looks the part and goes like a shower of shit but she needs a few things done to fully sell me on it, They are gonna give me a ring monday to tell me if they can do all that at the right price.

she want's 25k, it's a 98 model, it's making 338rwhp (haven't seen the dyno sheets) but it feels it., yeah 100k service is one of my concerns with buying it. Won't be powering it up much beyond what it is now as it would still be a daily driver.

Hopefully your line will survive the trip if not then mine is for sale. I have test driven the Aero Top TT supra and This is my summary so far, The good it sounds f**king amazing (exhaust is running from 2.5 at the front to 4" carbon fibre twin mufflers at the back makes a V8 supercar sound like a matchbox toy) It drives really well and has a new clutch and some steel wheel turbo's It runs 17-18psi when both are on the power (above4k rpm) It is regularly detailed including the engine bay (you wouldn't believe a spanner had ever been in there) Lady owner who doesn't flog it. now for the bad, She's done 180,000 KM's I haven't seen any recipts to show the work has been done and don't know the car well enough to be confident in my assessment of the power it makes, It has the usual rattles Imports get from being driven on our shitty roads. Sequential turbo's piss me off. Apart from these gripes she is a great car and still on my list for potential purchase pending further research.

looking at a supra tomorrow (338hp atw) a r34 skyline on sat arvo (unknown power but heaps of mods) my dream S15 on sunday (420hp atw will do 500 with a tune) and that leaves me with one more to look at when I can arrange a time.

Yeah man and a photo and whatever info is available I am leaning towards either a worked R34 or an S15 at this point. Had a mild obsession with the new Impreza WRX hatch today but I think I am over that. Might have to bring the lappy along to our next meet and see what you boys think of some of the selections.
