Doesn't buying fake TE37's defeat the purpose of buying Te37's all together. Correct me if im wrong but isnt the value in the lightweight / strength / quality your getting? Without this all your left with is the image, in which case everyone will be commenting

Them nice Volk's

You: oh thanks but actually they're fake

Them: eh?

You: Yeh they're VoRRRk's not Volks

Them: LOL

I guess it's also possible to take the sticker off and put a real Volk sticker in its place depending on how desperate someone is to convince onlookers your Vorks are fake with genuine Volk stickers, which then begs the question if all that matters is the image, then just buy some chromies.

lol its one of those things though isn't it - some people have the $ to go all out, some dont and want to get a similar look/performance increase for cheap, and others are happy with plain jane stock wheels!

I have te37's but even if I didnt, I think id prefer stockers to rip offs, its like buying a fake handbag for your signifigant other and trying to pass it off as the real thing imo

Trying to pass off VORKS as VOLKS is a bit like a transvestite trying to pass off as a female, every now and then some poor bloke finds out the hard way. Moral of the story is no matter how good it looks at the time, at the end of the day you never end up with the real thing.

      R34 RB20DE NEO + T ONLY

      By Sxnjeet · Posted

      Hello, I'm trying to make this thread basically the thread with all the answers to common questions regarding specifically the RB20 DE NEO + T engine, that comes in the R34. Answers will and only should be provided by those who have done this conversion or actually have some relevant real life experience please. Please feel free to ask questions in the comments if you have any so other members can answer. I feel like this thread is really needed, especially with more Americans buying (unknowingly going to regret it too) rb20 neo r34s. My first question being - What do you guys use for tuning? I have purchased a haltech elite 2500 Plug and play kit for the rb25det NEO because the ecu plug is the same, but I am unsure if any of the pins would need to be repined to match. Second question that I see asked very often - After this conversion, did you install the boost solenoid/ actuator? I see many people doing a + T setup on their rb20 NEOs while running stock RB25DET NEO ECUs with no tune. I am wondering how they are going about doing that and consistently abusing the car because many of these people have had these untuned setups running for a very long time. That was my original plan, but my engine cuts out at 5 psi of boost using the stock ecu with no tune and no boost solenoid/actuator.

      interesting. ive read and heard otherwise over the past year. ive been doing this +t conversion on a rb20 neo using all oem rb25det neo parts including the ECU, and im having engine cut out issues when I hit around 5 psi of boost. Everywhere/everyone ive asked has told me its because I never wired in a boost solenoid/actuator to the ecu, so the ecu isn't getting the right signal once it hits 5 psi of boost, causing the engine to get shut off.

      Something strange is happening. I didn't touch the car since we last spoke on the forums. Yesterday was the first day of good weather, so i took it out for about 2 hours. It started up on first crank every time about 5 times total. I literally didn't do anything to do the car.

      I purchased this one. Very well priced and works great. I was rough with it to see if it will last and had no issues.  Teslong Two-Way Articulating Borescope with Light, Industrial Endoscope Inspection Camera with Articulated Probe, Flexible Mechanic Fiber Optic Snake Scope Cam for Wall Automotive Engine Inspect-5FT : Amazon.ca: Industrial & Scientific
