  1. f**ken on the money mate that thing is gorgeous
  2. Never saw the point in a catback personally, what is the point in 3 inch cat back exhaust if you have 2 inch restricting the exhaust gas flowing between the exhaust manifold & the cat? But perhaps im wrong. Hicas delete is great if you want to drift but I like high speed cornering so im sticking with the hicas. Im expecting at the end of it all to have pretty much been able to buy an rb26dett which im also well and truly considering
  3. I can tell you I do have hicas & an lsd who wants traction control anyway f**k that haha. I was going to go to a walbro 255lph pump, nismo 550cc injectors, nismo s-tune suspension (coil-overs to stiff for roads out here) and r33 gtr brembos running on 245/35/18 possibly nankang rubber (cheaper and still perform well when hot), splitfire coilpacks (thats a given) run a 3 inch turbo back exhaust with a deleted cat and a 3076r steel wheel ball bearing turbo, front mount trust intercooler with twin thermofans (no clutch fan). I am fairly capable behind the wheel but by no means a racecar driver, this thing will be pushed well above 200km/h so it needs to handle and perform well.
  4. Yeah righto, so pretty much all the running gear needs replacing. That sucks ass, might try find a wrecked 34 gt-t for cheap or just trade mine up
  5. Cant you piggy back the manual ecu's anyway? I only just read this the other day so perhaps its bullshit. I didnt think the gearboxes were any different between a turbo & non turbo 34 except perhaps the ratios, I was thinking gtr syncros though cuz I know the syncros in those boxes suck ass. I will be chasing a diff though, 4.11 is great but not for high speeds. If I can run 300kw eventually I will be happy, im only aiming for about 200 at the wheels at the moment though so I can get used to driving some proper power. Cheers for the info ill have a read
  6. Not to be "that guy" but I've got an n/a neo thats looking at being replaced by a turbo neo in the next 12 months....regardless of the engine everyone seems to get great results from turbo'ing n/a motors but it seems to be the general concensus that they pretty much turn into hand grenades if you choose to go down this path...so my question is how many km's have you done since your de+t and how hard do you drive it? My skyline is my toy so I treat it mean but am fairly scrputenous on maintenence. I personally think im far better off dropping an already turbo'd neo motor into it...what is your oppinion? I want something thats going to last as opposed to a better low end torque curve.
  7. What are micro-beads? I also thought what if I went with metal mend to give it some strength and then a smear of bog for the finish
  8. If you get the time you should, well worth a read. Really informative, gives a great breakdown of the whole process, shows some good ways around dilemas and some good ways to do things, ill vouch for him and say this guy knows his shit! Your an admin aren't you?
  9. And Lhs headlight will buy both if I have too only if they're xenons though
  10. G'day mate extemely interested in bonnet, left hand side front guard, the front aero panel if you have it(not the one that sits under the engine the one that sits directly behind the fron bumper bar, and if you have it the windscreen washer pump for the front windscreen.
  11. Yeah sweet go man, dont wanna hassle ya before christmas though. haha I keep forgetting its nearly christmas. f**k me man that list of mods....you didnt do it half assed that thing will be f**ken bulletproof! Im frothing at the mouth to see this thing in the flesh
  12. Shit yeah!! Catch up with you sometime this week man was reading the description like "huh? I know that setup!!"
  13. G'day guys saw this thread is quite old but still relevant. I need some advise on what to fill the cracks with from the front? do i use the fibreglass glue? do i use some bog? or a combination of the two i.e fill it in as much as i can with the fibreglass resin then bog over the top? just seems to me that if i just pack bog into it they will lose a lot of the structural integrity and a slight bump and she will be busted again. Your advice is muchly appreciated thank you Regards Nick
  14. Yeah my R34 did exactly the same thing. The light came on for about 2 weeks no problems whatsoever, the light went away for a couple more weeks then came back and one of the coil packs had shit the tin intermittently in the process.
  15. G'day guys hopefully you see this before i do the job but, im doing a repair on a silver (KV2) R34, to the LHS quarter panel, it's all sanded back, and I've just applied bog to a small area that i decided was waaayyyy more of a pain to try tap out that to just slap a small smear of bog over the top and respray. so my question is, what is the best way to get any residual bog off from the paint that hasnt been sanded back to be resprayed??
