holy shit you make me want to give up my v8 commodore! Do you have higher res pics you can send me? I wouldn't mind one for my desktop wallpaper

What the hell you doing on here?! GTFO! :D

HA! Nah nah!! just kidding :) LOL! So you gona get a Skyline... ;)

Tharaka that looks awesome, nice purchase buddy!!!

Hope to see you and the car soon.

So is it a "hiflow VG30" or a "hiflow RB25 with a VG30 ext housing"?

My old turbo (RB25 with a VG30 ext housing) has been fitted to an R34, with an untouched std engine, for the last 2 years. It's making about 273rwkw on 15psi, without any issues, and this guy uses all it's ponies ;). More boost didn't see substantial increases, so 270rwkw is about it's limit.

Nice car in the flesh, saw it when i was on my smoko at work, u drove into the carpark at the back of my work when i was outside, had Ps on it. or am i wrong

Thanks!

Yep, it had P's on it

You work at Rue bar or something?

I remember seeing a Black 33 with a GTR wing in their carpark there

Thanks Al

240 still scares me, especially considering it was raining today...

I want to keep this car pretty reliable, so I might stay under 250.

Well done on the purchase dude. Ben is one of the most fussy pricks I know when it came to keeping that car clean... it's in top condition. The hks ssqv BOV is most annoying :huh:

Haha, I have a HKS SSQV as well. Some people love it, others hate it. But when youre driving through mount dandenong late a night on a cruise, everyone can hear it.

But that car looks mint mate. COngrats on the new purchase. And that should be plenty of power for road use.

Lolz...its ben's car...congrats mate...that has got to be the luckiest R34 around as it had the pissiest and weakest owner before you...i've never seen a car which had an easier life...ben did not do the car justice and it took the rest of us to bring out the car's best...but seriously...great buy...now whack the boost up on that sucker...

    • Nah, you failed to pay your washer cover subscription and BMW have revoked your access.
    • Haha thanks Lith,  So it's currently working quite well and the torque reduction is setup and working phenomenal. It also got a custom torque convertor from All Fast in WA. Stall speed somewhere around 5500rpm unlocked but still with the lockup. The car went back onto the dyno after a 3yr hiatus (even with the dbw, and other mods completed in this time) managed to make ~515kw at all 4 hubs. Sean setup the Torque reduction which now sounds awesome and working well. We setup adjustable torque controlled launch control aswell.  Man what a feature. Especially when drag racing on street tyres I Managed to get out to the drags late last year and tick a huge bucket list item off of running mine and the cars first 9. Car went a 9.98 @142 Still had the young fellas car seat in the back aswell.  This was on 255/40/17 Nankang AR-1.  Currently the Turbolamik is still completing it's own torque calcs and managing shift times from there. Unfortunately emtrons can export is still a little restrictive to export the ecu calculated torque just yet but I have recently been suggested a work around that I just haven't had a chance to trial yet.     
    • Yeah its bad eh. Ey! Watch your mouth. Yep, spot on. The rear's are always gone too though from brake checking. I had them perilously close to a tree that we had taken down. I think the tree peeps may have taken it. Either for a trophy, or accidentally.  
    • f**kin' yikes! That insulation is the shittest stuff I have ever seen. You need to do an insurance job on that f**ker, pronto. WRT to the washer cover, I would have said that there'd have to be some at a wrecker, then remembered that it's a BMW, and reasoned that every single wrecked one would have been tailgating and so the front end would be trashed.
