    • There are two. One with "intelligent key" (proximity key) and one without. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/pm35/6844-vq35de/body/998 Doesn't look like a shared item outside of V35 Skylines which may be handy if looking for a wreck. https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/d8700cg027 https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/d8700ac228
    • G35x should be a match. Not sure if the 2008+ items will be a direct fit as they might need the front axles also - much like when upgrading to 370z rear bearings, but the 2004+ should since they are the same chassis as our PNM35 Stagea. For what it's worth, I used replacement bearings from JustJap last year which need to be pressed onto the hub.
    • Point 1. If you want to do this and want to use that engine, just buy the whole Stagea. You will hate yourself less by getting everything on it all at once and then having to dispose of the stuff you don't want, compared to how much you will hate yourself if you miss buying something and it isn't there when you need it. If you can't afford to buy the whole wreck, then you can't afford to do the swap anyway. 1996 Stagea does NOT have a Neo. It is a version of the vanilla RB25. There is a bit of a halfway-house RB25 that was in Stageas at that time that kinda look like a Neo, in that they look like they have some Neo looking parts on them. But they are not Neo. They have hydraulic lifters and the same old bottom end as the vanilla 25. So, technically, putting that engine and its ECU into an R34 might be challenging. There might be some shenanigans with ABS communication, for example. I'm only guessing, because I've never contemplated messing around with stuff from that era. Sadly, you probably cannot Nistune the ECU (I haven't checked, but R33 era RB25s don't have a Nistune option because they have a stupid orphan ECU). So you will possibly end up contemplating an aftermarket ECU to get it working. You will DEFINiTELY want to take the Stagea's auto trans. The one in your car will die in very short order, especially if you turn the boost up at all. This is true even if you add a turbo to your existing stuff. Hence why I suggest buying the whole wreck.
    • Hey @sycotixwhere did you get the spark plugs replaced?  was that somewhere in Hoppers crossing too?   I’m planning to go to Backlash Automotive in Hoppers when my clovers come but if you found a decent garage on this side to do spark plugs, I’d be interested too.    PS: also been reading the drama with the car at the start. Glad you got that sorted 
    • I thought you were remarkably coherent and made the most of the inane questions you were given to work with. I love the thumbnail shot with dust blowing up from the diffuser.
