Nice car man congrats :) If i were doing my car over again, as in from stock. I would DEFINATELY get an ecu first. No questions asked. I tried to do it the other way round and learnt the hard way. :) If you do it first, then your car will be so much beeter off in every mod you do and from then on its easy street. :)

nice clean 34. Depending on whether u want to go power or aesthetics first. For the "looks" dept. Below are the basics in order.

1. Wheels

2. Suspension

3. Bodykit (optional)

OH and make sure u have covered the essentials first like full comp insurance and alarm/immobiliser.

Yeh the decision can be tough, been looking at exhausts, don't want bigger than a 3", trying to figure out what would be the best type to go with, short of that, i definatly need to do a stereo upgrade, i love my music,

but the one thing im 100% on is the bodykit, its gonna be the package from DMD, (funnily enough i bought the car from someone who works there) the Bomex Sides and Rear with the Do-Luck front, I've always thought it looked hot, sorry to those who already have it lol

@ MissR34

- That looks nice, did you have the holes in the boot lid filled?

Ii've always thought tht 34's look sweet with out the spoiler, i think ever since seeing the 'MR DMD' R34 with that gorgeous catalunya spalsh

I saw it when i picked up my car, with its Do-Luck front and Bomex sides and Rear, Im gona feel like such a copy cat when i get around to buying the kit... lol

  • 4 weeks later...
i reckon strip the spoiler as well

Nice car man! :whistling:

I am tossing between stripping the spoiler on my one also.

I've seen a few R34s (all non white), it just didnt look right without the wing....

Umm guess it gives me something to do tomorrow.

Thnks 4 all the comments people -

@ MAYHEM - Yeh im not sure about the spoiler, i too like the spoiler-less look but not sure if i actually like it over having one on there

but man i must say those rims of urs are tight, those are 20's right? I've fallen in love with the black rim/polished lip look, or something of the sort, but i don't think ill go over 19's when i get to that stage lol, love ur ride

    • The interesting part of tests like IM240 is they measure the exhaust output. But they never measure the gases going into the engine... Imagine doing the test in a densely populated city with higher CO2 levels around... Instant disadvantage...
    • I have two German Shepherds that like to bite things that are in places they shouldn't be. Plus the cars/batteries on chargers are inside a locked garage, inside that fully fenced and locked yard. If you can get the car out, you can have it, as I'll be having one hell of a laugh at your expense.
    • Looks like they changed the wording in the manual for the new model. I have a different model. Mine is CC1206. Not CC1206-XLI. Mine doesn't support lithium at all. I can't find the manual for my model online and they don't list the model on the Century website anymore either. In my manual it says what I quoted and that they recommend to not leave it on 🤷‍♂️ Sounds like you'd be fine with this one now.
    • Thanks for actually answering every single point! I noticed the date only after posting. And yes, looks like things have changed a little bit since then. FWIW, looks like Government Gazette No 253 has the current emissions test procedure. Sounds pretty reasonable altogether. One thing I learned from this is that it's possible to check whether a catalyst does any work by measuring the temperature. Catalyst outlet temp is at least 40°C higher than inlet temps if there is a reaction happening. I'd be curious to check this on mine but don't have a thermometer. Because purely going by smell it can't be doing much. Personally I'd be okay to pay for the test as long as it's within reason. My main concern would be to lose my rego because it definitely wouldn't pass the test in its current state. I'll see if I can do a bit more digging and see what's involved in doing this nowadays.   To be fair I don't think it's stopping many people from doing the modifications anyway. It just puts a barrier up to doing things right  
    • Uhhh if anyone sees this - I bought a BRZ years ago, on my fulls soon so back on the market for the R34!
