urghhh... i need help

Dude, you can get cheaper, but the condition / kms get worse. It depends on WHAT you want. A nice clean [undamaged] low km vehicle with 5spd and turbo will be at least $33k. I am sure you can knock some off that price too [$36.5], you should be able to get it for under or around 35k I think.

Here is an example of a slightly damaged / cheaper 34, 5spd turbo: Prestige Motorsport

Bear in mind this car is still in Japan and price does [obviously] not include tyres and on-roads. But it is a nice price!

Ps make sure you check the condition notes...

It also looks lowered to me! Do you know what suspension is in it? Adjustable?

Edit: I just saw your other thread on suspension.

nismoR34.. u coming to ballarat this saturday mate???

I will give you a definate answer on friday - i need to call the guy I bought my car off to see if he has got the parts i am after...

If you want PM me with your number and i will call you tomorrow [friday]. Also let me know where your travelling from!

*EDIT* I dont think i will go, the guy hasnt got the parts out of quarantine yet - bloody crap! I would be just going for the hell of it and dont really have the fuel atm...

sorry nismor34... didn't get your post...

went with pushead and i put a deposit on it already.

Q: they have 17inch buddy club P1 wheels...don't know if it's x 7, 8 or 9 inch. I know the back is wider. At the moment it has 225/45 tyres and they don't really fill out the rims.

Front is ok, but back need wider tyres. What's a good size as i don't wanna go too wide, or it will look like 4wd wheels or a fat chick trying to fit into Satch jeans.

cheers

No worries Creation, thats cool. Good to hear you are buying the beast!

Check this site for a Tyre Guide This should help you choose a tyre that is roughly the same circumference as the stock setup [225 / 45 ~ 17 x 7.5]

You dont want to just put ANY size tyre on, or you will stuff up your tacho / speedo / odometer / etc!

My car currently has:

Front: 17 x 8, 235 / 45

Rear: 17 x 9, 255 / 40

Hope this helps :)

thanks... done some research.. i think front 17x8 rear 17x9 (guessing)... which would be the same as the Evolution R 200sx. He has front 215/45 rear 235/45. I might go the same or 10mm wider front and rear. The profile will be 45 as thisi s what it is on the stock r34 alloys.

    • Oh yeah forgot to also mention need to also unplug the IACV as well. Thanks for the reminder @MBS206 Unplugging the TPS takes it out of closed loop so you're able to screw down the IACV without the ECU trying to add/subtract timing to maintain the idle (not sure PowerFC can even do this, but Nistune and the OEM definitely does)
    • For sale is my 1999 Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T, tuned to 234 kW / 313 hp. I've had the car for a few years as my daily driver. The car is original (as far as Skylines go), with only a few minor upgrades to enhance performance and driving experience, as typical for such a car of its age. Overall, it is in great condition with no body rust, thanks to its earlier import date. It features a top-notch security system (not literally, but it's great!) with remote start and still functional 4-wheel steering via HICAS. It comes with several performance and handling upgrades, including:     Hypergear 450HP Turbocharger running 17 PSI boost, installed mid-2021 by Jaustech     550cc injectors     Nistune ECU     Front-Mount Return-Flow Intercooler     X-Force Stainless Steel Exhaust     Upgraded engine mounts     Bottom end bearings replaced     BC Coilovers     Lenso DR1 rims     Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin RE003 TL 245/40R18 97W tires, fitted early 2023 The interior is mostly stock, with a few additions:     Viper Satellite Tracking System with remote start     Bluetooth Double-Din Touchscreen Head Unit     Steering wheel cover Cons:     A few paint imperfections here and there     Driver’s seat shows more wear than the others. It's not torn at all, but I've added a seat cover to protect its condition. I also have a CarVX Vehicle History report available for serious buyers, so you don’t need to purchase it yourself. Price: $26,000 ONO.
    • I've had two suzukis in the past have an extremely hard time turning over and not starting after sitting for a few weeks. Ended up the alternator would seize up causing the starter to force. Same issue both times.  Maybe they're sourcing their alternators from the same place...
    • Ah right. Maybe my rb just loves chewing through batteries lol.
    • On the R34 can't you just unplug the IACV? This is the way I've always done it on the R33. Disconnect IACV, get it idling around 650rpm, and then do a power reset on the ECU to get it to relearn idle (factory ECU).   The big reason no one has touched on as to why you'd want to get the base idle right, is that it means the computer needs to make smaller adjustments to get a good idle at 700-750rpm.   Also, cleaning the IACV won't normally make the car suddenly idle lower or higher. The main issue with the IACV gumming up is that the valve sticks. This means the inputs the ECU gives, aren't translating to changes in air flow. This can cause idle choppy ness as the ECU is now needing to give a lot of input to get movement, but then it moves too far, and then has to do the same in reverse, and it can mean the ECU can't catch stalls quickly either.
