Do you have the rear boot trim then?

Hey mate pictuers of the areas in red would be great. Where are you located? And do you have this window trim bit highlighted in red? Its not the plastic pink weather shield but the rubber trim underneath it (like to the right of the red line for the rear quater window). If so is it in good condition? Cheers mate! P.S - is your boot trim in good condition too? I'm after the bits that go around the boot.

That would be an excellent plan! If you could swap it back to the normal one after you fit the bigger turbo that'd be even better! Bass, would the ones you're organising fit an R34 or R33 only?

Hey all, I'm after these bits for my GTT as mine are abit scratched and I'd like to replace them. Anybody know what exactly they're called and whether or not I can get them repaired or perhaps new from Nissan (can't imagine it being too cheap)? Also I've never given a shot at taking them out, so are they hard to get off? Cheers, Andy

Hey I'm after these parts circled in red if you have them. Are they in good nick, not scratched or anything?

I shall take you up on that offer. It'll have to be at the end of the month (27-29th onwards) when I get my car back and finish my exams though. Will this be an inconvience?

But what you described sounds exactly like the symptoms I'm asking about? Doesn't that mean I'm hitting Retarding and its not a coilpack problem? Anyhow I think I might start a NSW thread to see if anyone who has an R34 and Splitfires is willing to let me take a run with the Splitfires to see my car runs better, allowing me to see if I need to buy a set or not.

So what causes the fuel cut then? :S

Hey Abo Bob, so are you describing with that statement? Is that the retarding, or the misfiring/coilpack problem? I'm pretty sure R34's have R&R too because as I stated in the original post I had that massive power loss where the car would feel like it cut out and I would literally be flung foward because of sudden jerking.

Anyone else?

Yeah cut the bloke some slack, his just looking out for his siblings who may need a car to drive. But R31Nismoid's solution would be the best, get them to chip in to buy a Barina or something which they all can drive.

I've always assumed that Rich and Retard was a viscous jerk/sudden stop in power? I've actually experienced this already at ~80% throttle and though the stuttering/flatspots I get at 100% was different?

Ok all, I've done ALOT of research and reading about this but as there are too many relating issues and thus being to vague, I think its time to open a thread asking specifically what seems to be wrong with my car. Heres whats currenty done to my car: R34 GT-T BATMBL SS Split Dump Xforce SS Hiflow Cat Trust 3.5" Catback Apexi Pod (open - no enclosure/cai) Profec B Spec II (10/12psi) FMIC Bosch 040 Pump Ok this is what happens when I plant it (100% throttle) in second gear at approx 2000rpm. Power begins to build and then there seems to be flat spots all the way to redline. The most noticeable ones would be at ~3000rpm and 5000-5500rpm. When these flat spots occur it simply makes the car feel VERY slow as if the car is being held back and not being allowed to reach its full powerband. This happens at both 10psi and 12psi. I've already replaced the plugs with 0.8 pre-gapped coppers, also just replaced the fuel filter. The coilpacks have been tapped up as well, and I'm not sure if its mis-fire because I can't hear any popping noises. Apologies for the long post and I'm sorry if this sounds 'repetitive' to some but as my symptoms came up with so MANY results I'm not sure what exactly it is. I would just like to get rid of this problem as it feels as if I'm being robbed from my cars true potential. Thanking those who are reading this in advance and any help will be greatly appreciated! Cheers, Andy

Yes SMIC sold and FCD still avaliable.

Price dropped to $13,800.

What happened is, R&R was occuring thus limiting the cars actual full potential. i.e. once power began to build up R&R kicked and hence didn't allow a true powerband. So by removing this limit/ceiling a full power run could be made. SMIC still for sale as well.

Bump bump bump.

Thanks all! Yep I'm going to get the black middle 'skyline' part colour coded and I think I'll spray the lower black lip silver as well. The lip I got second hand and I think its an Eastbear item.

Revival from teh dead! This is EXACTLY what I have with my car - is it definately an R&R problem? I was thinking maybe I have a dirty fuel filter or maybe my fuel pump is on its way out?

Gday Richard, do these suit Endless Zeal coilovers?

Hey all, I have for sale 2 items today. 1. HKS Fuel Cut Defencer/Defender - $100 Standard type with 4 wires that can be wired to any car with an airflow meter and ECU. Check out November Hot4s to see the jump from 157rwkw to 194rwkw when R&R/boost cut/fuel cut was removed. 2. R34 GTT SMIC Intercooler with Shoud and Pipes - $220 Good for up to ~200rwkw. Perfect non-fuss upgrade for those who want an ample power output with mild mods. I believe it fits perfectly into Stageas, R33s and Cefiros while R32s need minor mods to fit.

Yep skirts still for sale bud. PM me if interested.

Thanks guys. Yep I'll definately try getting some dish rims back on there soon. Do you think I should paint the bottom black lip silver as well? Or leave it black?
