whilst playing with coilpacks etc, i noticed that r34's have 2 butterflies? 1 in the throttle body, obviously, but one that remains open, that sits (looking top down) just right of the TB. what controls that?

anyone know who sells a cheapish front/dump pipe combo ?

need one today for under $200 locally !!!

hey Mitch, ring around, wreckers dude. bound to find something

if you really get stuck, i have a stock dump you can take off my hands for next to nothing, and you'll just need to source a front pipe to match.

i wish :P cant afford an evo, i would <3 a evo5 stripped/caged

got around 15k for a weekend/track car (obviously change from that is prefferable but you get what you pay for) motorkahna/hillclimb/grip are my main goals, the odd skid day wouldnt be frowned upon

R33 is pretty decent bang for buck, you can pick up one with some fairly decent mods for around the 15k mark. you can shove wide tyres on the rear for traction, throw in some adjustable arms, front sway bar, front and rear strut braces, half cage if you want to.

id stab myself in the neck before buying a 33, as cheap as they are now..... still would stab neck.

been lookin at:

32

s13

s14

180

id prefer one already set up for track use (built cars before, cbf doing it right now) so if possible cage/rims/tyres/few mods. ive been lurkin carsales/ns.com & here, found a few possibilities.

edit** if i cant find a worthy candidate from the import world ive got a mate who will sell me a modded sr20det with x-member and gearbox mounts to suit a mk2 escort..... a very tempting option

Note to self:

Sell black Stagea

Buy black Porsche

Drive Porsche thru city looking for imports to challenge (Stagea in this case)

Proceed to speed past at 80kph passing cops in the city in a 50kph zone

Watch in rear mirror as cops ignore Porsche and suss out speed limit obeying Stagea

:P

FAIL

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
