Leather retrim for the GTR seats(or just buy 1 bride for driver's side.

Leather retrim for gear and handbrake boots

Respray the dash and other interior pieces to suit the new outer respray.

Get rid of the stock plenum and fuel rail, not sure what to get yet though.

Fit my clear cam cover

Fit my rollcage(rip out the rear seats)

Harnesses for both seats

Buy a new front strut brace

Camber rods

Carbon fibre bonnet

And still deciding wether or not to two tone the car, black roof, cf bonnet, cf wing and bayside blue body

Probably more but that's the main things

I might finally install the Power FC i've got sitting around so I can fcuk off this stupid JDM piggyback, maybe I'll give the dirty SR a set of HKS cams while I'm at it..

and other than that I'm in the process of acquiring skirts/pods/front lip and then getting bumpers repainted, and refitting my 17s

oh and I'll go to heasmans to get the suspension readjusted as dori dori spec is proving a handful on the street

not spending too much $$ on her as I got other things to do (overseas holidays > car)

      Exhaust silencers/varex exhausts

      By PotatoCake · Posted

      Exhaust end of this month, and then tune after that whenever there is availability. Still tossing up between a pure 98 tune or a flex 98/e85 combo.  The (lack of) milage in e85 isnt great. Start to get anxiety if i go for a long drive and there arent any united servo's nearby

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I mean I can be OCD'y but this is really over the top. At that point why not just run a full wideband fuel controller? Especially if you run 3 widebands. The system works pretty well, which is trimming low load stuff to be within a few percent of the base map. Pre-engine _change_ the base map was only 1-2% off, depending on ambient temp, elevation, etc. Under load the LS is really very straightforward to tune, enough that a wideband closed loop would be overkill. If I really cared (and I hope I don't) I can always just go back to the MAF system the car actually came with. Which does all those nice calculations for me (temp, altitude, etc), now that you can buy 102mm MAF's that do not cause restrictions.

      I'd be installing 2x widebands and using the NB simulation outputs to the ECU.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Nah, it's different across different engines and as the years went on. R32 era RB20, and hence also RB26, the TPS SWITCH is the idle command. The variable resistor is only for the TCU, as you say. On R33 era RB25 and onwards (but probably not RB26, as they still used the same basic ECU from the R32 era), the idle command is a voltage output of close to 0.45V from the variable resistor.
