Hey guys, the time has come to road reg my R32, so I need to find a stock airbox. It's roadworthy right now, but I'd rather not take any chances with the rego as I'm only in town till friday to do the rego and getting a second appointment could take forever.

I just need an R32 GTSt airbox (apparently the GTS one dosen't line up properly but I could be wrong) for the rego check and I'll have it back to you as soon as I'm done.

If anyone has one lying around I can come and pick it up anytime before Wednesday.

Cheers,

Shan

wow... thanks guys... i can feel the love :pirate:

Gonna borrow Kaz's sometime before Wed arvo as she's not far from my place (just worked out that its 3 left turns and a right turn).

I'll see you all on Sunday morning for brekky tho. Hopefully with my newly registered car.

Altho I just found out the engineer's cert I had expired not long ago and the engineer who issued it is in New Zealand atm :O lets hope they accept the older one.

the car's already had an inspection, and it passed everything, cept I couldn't pay the rego as I had just paid the rego on the cef and was $50 short. How embarassment.

Then I went to syd for interviews n stuff, so left the R32 here. Now I'm back to get my car, I rang VicRoads and the guy asked me if I had already rego'd it under my name, coz the VIN and my details were already on it.

So lets hope they're a lil more leniant as it's already been inspected with that engineer's cert. I've got a current roady, so it shouldn't be that much of an issue, unless they're real diligent.

Otherwise I might have to extend my stay in VIC for a lil while until the engineer's cert's gets redone.

Im local ;) - come get whatever you need from my R32 when you're up here

Airbox etc.....

I would... cept I'm keepin my cars all with VIC reg :D sif get a roadworthy cert every year and deal with multicoloured slips for different things.... most. confusing. registry. process. ever.

Hey Kaz, do you mind if I come pick it up tomorrow morning? I'll give you a call beforehand.

Redid the booking for monday, gonna get the engineer to redo the cert on friday, and should be 100% fine then.

Which means I'll be comin to the breakfast meet in a Hyundai :D

sorry only just saw this, had no net today.. networking issues!

Anyway should be ok, going to city nissan again at some point though, about what time?

I was going to try and see if I could drop it over to you last night but I blew a hose in the city in peak hour, had to get a tow home from jack. :)

Eva fell asleep in jacks truck LOL. Smooth ride I guess :D

Just for that I'm gonna come knocking on your door with a bottle of scotch and something for you to jam under my cluster.

Anywho, turns out the roadworthy guys, VICroads and the engineer didn't need the airbox fitted, so I went ahead and got it all sorted out.

Thanks for the offers in any case guys.

COOL I'm sleeping in then :) (hopefully!)

Oh probably a bit late now, but don't ever go to Carlton Vicroads.. that old grey guy in the 'drivethrough' is an utter (& bitter) prick. Greensborough Vicroads are fairly reasonable/nice though.

Burwood Vicroads is where I got it done... they're pretty easy going, although he did give me some hassle about the VIN number being stamped on the strut tower instead of the firewall.

Other than that, all done and ready to go.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By silviaz · Posted

      I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.

      So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about

      This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but..

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By AdiR34 · Posted

      Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
