I have good days and bad days but I am on the road to recovery. I put R33 GTR seats in the GTS-T when I first hurt my back and they do make a big difference. The GTR is a V-Spec and she does ride reasonably hard.

Glad to hear about the "recovery" part

wow, after reading everything here, i can relate to it so close. I make the PTSHH sounds diving around. I miss the power, I miss pulling up at lights, I miss going to parties, ah god its all too much....

Withrawals are getting pretty bad now. At least its a good feeling knowing your line is coming back with probs 200 more pony's to play with, and a couple of more gizmoes!

Its good to know im not the only person who thinks of there car in the same way lol.

On a positive note, at least it's not depreciating like most other cars :D

It'll have been exactly 6 months since my accident (big rear-ender into my car) Wednesday next week. I still haven't gotten the car back, but it's getting close.

I've been driving my little N14 SSS daily since, but it's not quite the same with 80fwkw compared to the ol' 183rwkw R34 GTT.

In the meantime I've been gathering various parts - oil cooler, bigger radiator, swaybars, various nismo parts (speedo cluster, short-shifter, wheel nuts), etc. Gotta do something whilst I wait for it come back to keep my skyline-love alive.

Fatz - that sounds about right - we have four Skylines and that way there is always at least one or two going while the other ones are undergoing a build phase or upgrades or repairs.

Problem solved :banana:

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      brake clearance depends on spoke design GT-R size I'd go 9.5 +15 or +12, and if you've rolled your guards, 10" +20. People run 10.5 but I reckon that's too wide.

      I was using Realdash App on my entertainment unit in the sil80. Can connect over USB/bluetooth, can set up warnings and is discreet and doesn't stand out bonus was using android auto so had maps and music still going. Put the dollars saved from a screen into decent ecu, sensors and other upgrades.

      Here’s something I was wondering. From the colour of the fuel that came out of the old filter and how hard it was to take it out, I would assume that was clogged AF! Do you think the car was running lean during those times? And would it now run better now that the flow is better? Or would it run rich for a while and then start adjusting?  I’m not really sure if the R34 ECU adjusts to changes like this. I mean it’s an ECU from 2000, not AI 😂 But also, interested to know if anything like that is there.

      Rob's S Chassis track cars. Now with more s15 and less 180sx

      By robbo_rb180 · Posted

      Have made a start on the dump pipe. Ordered a few 3.5 inch bends and pie cuts. To make fit up and tacking a bit easier cut some slots in an old t bolt clamp. It's been a tight fit but managedto get it down under the car but still sits about 5-6mm below the chassis rail. Have started to weld it out but not had much time. Also got new orings and gasket so intake and injectors are back in with all the water bypass done. Another box arrived with bits for making a  swirl pot off the upper coolant neck. PWR are still waiting to make my intercooler and radiator but should be ready in 2 weeks. Slowly making a plan for a few suspension arm upgrades for when all engine/driveline is done. Got a busy period for work  ext few weeks so not much will happen on the car.

      By robbo_rb180 · Posted

      I've had this happen with some cheaper kits and found the efihardware ones don't do this. I would go be pwm the pump no way need it at 100% all the time.
