yeah i was reading on here its a factory setting until they're warm they dont shift into 4th until very late (later than they usually would) as for manual conversion... i correct myself i paid 3k cash with a h/duty clutch etc using a r33 GTST box....

cool thanks mate have a good one cheers

haha yeah true i spose it has filled my time reading every1's post's hehe

wtf this topic has got 6 pages of crap now??! u guys are going to much in depth... should of kept it simple liek what others are saying; learn to drive the thing properly, take times on a reasonably cooler day and take into consideration its only a non turbo... not this coooler and hotter exhaust fumes crap tahts just bs that stuff really matters to those who actually have drag setup cars.. not dailys that jus wanna see how much thrashing there car can withstand!

shotgun mine too... but when i found out solenoids were like a grand i paid 1,500 more so 2500 all up and got it converted to a manual

yeah maybe some kid probably did knick em.. it has been parked outside the last few nights as my dads fourbie's diff clagged itself so he's been workin on that in the garage.. so jus take it to any tyre shop and they shud be able to measure it up and tell me yeah?? cheers guys

G'day guys, just got back after giving my car a little drive and realised my Centre Caps had fallen off . I have aftermarket wheels current (refer to pic attached) Just wondering; A- What size (mm) would the centre caps be for an R34 N/A Sedan? B- Would these wheels have the same size centre caps as the stock wheels? C- What are my options I.E. where can i get some from - Ebay or somewhere else?? Cheers guys

i just got mine done and mine is doing this noise... the place is trying to make me pay to get the belt re-tensioned.. did you pay or not?? jus wondering if i should give in and pay for it or not? cheers mate

realy 16-17??? all my mates who have stock except a cannon and maybe a hi flow cat R33's run 15.5 - 16 nothing reall over 16.5 ??? didnt think one would run 18 but okay take ya word for it

yeah what everyone is saying is true but cmon guys 18sec qtr mile...?? thats just shameful (sorry mate) an NA skyline SHOULD be doing it quicker than that...

im not sure but where im from we have a guy called Rob Bliss he has been in the industry for 15 yrs now and he's well known in brisbane for his work on skylines etc.. i think he has hi flow cats for around the 300 mark...

check ya catalytic converter. could be blocked my mates 33 did that.. ran like sheet got a hi-flow cat in there and ran beautiful! also check ur tyres for correct inflations and all of the above that mad082 listed....

what happens if you convert your auto R34 to a manual?? do you need to get a different diff?

its cool i found out it doenst fit up.. otherwise would of purchased this.. cheers

how much do ya think i would need to do the doors outside where that carbon fibre wrap is on the R34's and my entire centre console?

unfortunatley haha was so keen!

hey mate just wondering if this would fit an 1998 R34 N/A SEDAN version though? i've heard sedan and coupe exhausts are different sometimes cheers

anyone know if the above system would fit a R34 N/A SEDAN version??

i also have a few mates at Complete Car Sound... they're located in pickering street enogerra (in front of Repco) pretty cool guys.. good stuff try give them a bell on monday if you're after some prices or get in there http://www.completecarsound.com/ 3355 1509

Samon - yeah man it drives me crazy too!!! Basho - cheers for the info on a rough price mate! AYW550 - yeah it can be heard from outside and inside the cabin whilst out of the garage... i do get looks... just this arvo i had her idling out the front and a sales person for energex was walking up and down my streeet ended up stoping and asking if that was my car etc etc its nice bla bla bla.. then he's like i can hear that noise wat is it? im like oh i think its bla bla bla what u guys have said and he's like nahh i think its the carbie not getting enough fuel.. im like oh yeah nice carbie in my skyline aye and he jus wlaked off i was like HAAHAH FAIL!! anyway im going to definatley get it taken back and just get the timing belt re-tensioned and the others looked at and see if that fixes it.. if not than i spose its my idler bearings?

hmm so what your saying is maybe do a few more k's in it and see if it sorta wears itself in?? and yeah i couldnt come up with the right word.. but u guys have come up with the word its this "whirling" sounddddddd and 34 yes it seems to be coming from that region mate..

ahhh as far as im aware i didnt hav new idler bearings fitted you wouldnt happen to kno how much they cost would you? also i shouldnt be charged to get my belts re-tensioned or looked at again by the same mechanic that did it should i? cause i dont really have the money after that to pay any more labour but thanks mate you've put my mind at ease knowing that it is just one of them belts

hey guys just got a quick question.. im not too sure how to explain the noise but ill try my best... when idling just below and a smidge about 1000rpm my car makes some sort of a noise and it sounds like sort of a diff whining (if anyone can picture that sound) or maybe the sound when u have brand new tyres on and ur cruising and u get that noise from ur wheels because they're brand new... i really dont know how to explain it.. it happens just idling as i said around 800rpm i slowly creep the revs up to about 1000rpm and it slowly fades away as i get higher and when the revs drop it comes back into action... recent things done to the car: i have just got the car back today after having all new belts replaced including timing belt... wondering if it could be just a belt??? opened up the hood and it seems to be coming from the front of the engine exactly where the belts are but i thought i'd check on here as im not the brightest light bulb when it comes to engines.. hopefully someone can picture the sound its really hard to explain cheers

frx026 - get off ya high horse ya tossa... give the guy a bit of respect mate we all start somewhere.. and he's clearly said that he is no PROFESSIONAL he does it for the people that seek the genuine, easy to get along with type of guy.. much unlike yourself... learn some communicational skills mate and while your at it.. go back to grass roots and learn to respect others the way you would like to be respected. as for the install im not a big fan FACT. but am i going to grill him for it? no.. FACT you know not everyone has the same opinion as you - and on that note not everyone would like to have the same opinions as you, so you stated your opinion you dont like the install.. GOOD get the f***k over it and quit actin ya shoe size!!! some people want this sort of job and its good to know someone is willing to put there ass on the line to provide for those that dont want the pro job or dont have the funds... anyway my 2c take it or leave it... got respect for ya mate but wouldnt personally have you do any of my jobs... goodluck and cheers Noely - out

will my r34 tiptronic diff suit my car if i convert it to a manual? or are they different?
