I dont think i would buy any of those! I'll put in my vote in for the FPV. I like M3's but not the E36. I prefer the E30 and E42. Some other alternatives:

Plenty of quick sedans around that price range:

Alfa Romeo 156 GTA (V6, 184kw)

V35 Nissan Skyline GT-8 (V6, 206kw)

E34 BMW M5 (i6, 234kw)

B5 Audi S4 (V6 biturbo, 195kw)

W202 Mercedes C43 AMG (V8, 225kw)

X308 Jaguar XJR (V8 supercharged, 276kw)

Or some japanese coupes:

V35 Nissan 350GT Coupe (V6, 206kw)

Honda S2000 (i4, 176kw)

And my favourite (but horribly impractical) idea:

E31 BMW 850Ci (V12, 220kw) or BMW 850CSi (V12, 280kw), as shown below:

Mazda RX-7 Series 8 - My first choice also with a few mods.or 2nd hand job and do it up with the cash saved.

Nissan 350Z Z33 Track - My second choice.I have seen good reveiws about this car in BMI with a few mods.

BMW M3 E36 - My third choice.witha few power and handeling mods.cant go past that luxury and power

Toyota Supra 2JZ TT- meh.toss up between it and the BMW.It would out power the M3 but not outhandle.

I'd have to go the RX7, theyre fast, powerful, sleek, sexy, and sound really f**king nice...

second choice would be the Supra, but i know too many people with a supra, i dont know anyone personally with an RX7...

    • They should do. I have S14 (or something S chassis, anyway) driveshafts in my R32 (because my diff flanges have 3x2). They're the right length. When you go looking for R32/3/4 driveshafts (for turbos), they're all the same thing, so are the same length. So there really shouldn't be any reason why those cheapies from JJ won't also fit an R34. R32/3 NA should also be the same thing. The (3x the price) D-Max ones are uni-fit. They have 5x1 and 3x2 bolt holes and say they cover all the cars. So that would also suggest that they are all the same except for the flanges. And in that case, the flange goes both ways. I'd be buying the D-Max ones if I ever have to replace a shaft. Because that will open up diff options without needing to juggle shafts also. Juggling shafts is gay.
    • Yeah with the adaptors they do look like the photo above - just the fitment within the plenum itself and then further with the rail to the intake is questionable - we shall see tomorrow hopefully once I get some replies from Aeroflow, maybe those bosses are the missing piece....
    • Should be fine, if you have it sitting too far in, you end up just spraying the walls and have shit idle. You "can" run them like that, however I don't think it's a great idea (also depends on your plenum, might be good to just get the injector bosses first, mock it up and see if you need to get the bottom extension) Ideally your injectors, with the extension should look like this  (Not my photos, just Google)
    • Thanks for the replies guys, it's really appreciated.  It seems the kit was supposed to come with those injector bosses but hasn't. Unsure if they'll help as even with the adaptors to make them a 3/4 height injector they still sit too far out so mount the fuel rail?
    • Hello, I am looking to replace my two rear drive shafts in my R34 N/A Skyline but I'm finding conflicting information. Do S13/S14/S15 or R32 NA/ R33 NA fit? https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-rear-drive-shaft-l-h-nissan-silvia-s13-s14-s15-3x2-type?currency=AUD&srsltid=AfmBOoqY7EwDaYCUoUU3mxxZ_qrUXkVVHiV4MIN7ozoar6scjnEiekv- would this fit?
