Ok just got a quick question that i want answering because i have asked a few ppl and no one knows what the hell this thing is for. Im pretty sure it's not really important and at first i didn't really care. However my curiousity is starting to get to me and i want to know what this is! :laugh:

So lets play GUESS THIS PART!

What the hell is this thing in the HKS GT-RS kit?? I fitted the whole kit and it runs beautifully, but this part wasn't used and no where in the jap instructions does it say what it's for. So any one know or care to take a guess? I was thinking some sort of heat shield thing?

Pretty sure its the heat shield that goes over the orange silicon hose.

Search for a kit installed and you should see what i mean.

ahhhh!! That actually sounds correct, looks to be the same size as the hose aswell. I think you are right, hahaha what a stupid part :yes:

Thanks man, my curiousity is gone now :blink:

Thanks man, it looks sexy as in the car. Here's a pic of it all installed. I got the kit off of nengun and it was around $2500 delivered, so a very good price in my books.

I'm still running it on the stock ECU (I know, i know i need a ECU!), but it runs ok on it. Comes on boost really early and pulls hard, sounds absolutely unreal! Really loud spool/whistle sound, i love it! But yeah i wanna get a power FC for it soonish if i can get my hands on one, then the fun will begin :blink:

Stock injectors and AFM at the moment. I havnt had the car dynoed since the new turbo so ur guess is as good as mine to what it would make. Ill probably get a SAFC for now and see how far i can push that. The next performance step is to go a Power FC and injectors but like with most mods, money is holding me back for the time being.

Yeh i know what you mean!

Ive got around 200rwkw but am considering a turbo upgrade, but its all the stuff that has to go with it that is holding me back - pfc, injectors, afm, clutch - it all adds up so quickly!

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      And....if that could be true for all R34 GTTs, then it might be good. But in reality it is not really any better than my standard instruction to "go out and have a look at it yourself, and wave a tape measure around" etc etc, because as soon as you have any adjustable arms, or coilovers with smaller diameter springs, or tyres that have any bulge that goes out further than the rim, etc etc, then the simple version of the information is still potentially misleading. Plus, nothing in this is static. Everything is moving. At the rear the wheels swing inward at the top as they go up, so the clearances on the inside change as the suspension is compressed. At the front it's even worse. And then you have the difference in absolute wheel position in the arch can move around more, or less, depending on how compliant the bushes are. If, like me, you have sphericals on the front caster rods (and on the FUCAs also, but these are probably less dominant when it comes to wheel position), then your wheel will swing forward/backward under loads, as well as up/down, as well as steering angle. You end up having the simple numbers with 17 caveats/footnotes for each.

      Both windows operate normally while the engine is running but start to sag as soon as I switch off.  Does anyone know of reasonably priced replacements or other brands that will fit?

      Actually PowerFC is probably the easiest to get basic data from, it comes with a hand controller and display so you don't need to remember to pack a laptop every time you drive. It also has a PC based viewing/logging option if required. Nissan used consult on these because back in the mid 80s, ODB was just a glint in a standard's body's eyes.  They switched to OBD shape around 2000 (my 2001 Cima had OBD shaped but not OBD compliant port) With the standard ECU there is a cable and software available to give basic data too, I think it is called Nissan Data Scan or s
