Been putting off a power fc for a while now, might buy myself one for Christmas! Probably have to buy one already here though to avoid a poor exchange!! Also a set of re55's would be nice if any one wants to donate! ;)

What are you guys buying your car for Christmas?!?!!?

With a bit of luck people, we might be able to help eachother with this thread.

If someone has what the other person wants, maybe they could be extra generous over the festive season and offer their unwanted/un-needed parts @ Cheap prices!!!!!

Just a thought!!!!

This question is very cunningly put!! Lolz

Buying for my car c.f. buying for myself! Well rationalised!!

OK Santa - how about a rear carbon diffuser for my 'Line?

It's funny mate, i was thinking of you when i posed the question!

My car needs me, without me it just sits around all day!

+1 on the carbon diffuser!

Just bought a Greddy air diversion plate and a Trust Strut Bar. Xmas came early.

Wish list: Power FC, 700cc Injectors, Garrett 2860R-5 turbos, HKS clutch. Dont think Santa (my wife) will let me have them this Christmas, maybe next year ;)

mxfly! Santa at Powerplay Imports has or had front Endless pads for the R34 GTR on special!

Johnny! Unique Auto Sports has or had Front DBA Racing discs with curved vanes and fish-hook slots at a good price for your R34 GTR!

And Bakes, you've already bought GT-Cs, Side skirts, rear pods as well. Not to mention that your washed car, side-by-side with your wife makes her look like a pauper!

The Truth sets me freeeee!

Thanks Terry,

I already have CC-R pads. I'm looking to the next level. Endless big brake kit with 6 pot Racing calipers up front and 370mm rotors, and 4 pot Racing calipers at the back with 345mm rotors. Much like my old 350 had.

      I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp

      Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
