Alright guys, I didn't start this thread to talk about politics, or to whinge about how much money other people are making. Lets keep it on topic eh?

Judging by the responses so far, I would say that an ECU is the best bet.

O/T maybe some rears for my 34 (1934 not r34)

i missed the part where i said the global recession was labors fault?

you might want to find out how to spell a party's name before voting for them

Where is the part where I say you said the global recession is labours fault.

Nice work there sparky (JonnoHoward)..lol

and its good to see kevin07 sticking with labour tradition and wasting all the money from budget surplus's under liberal. good stuff kev, keep up the good work

What my post says in a sarcastic way is: do you think he has a say in the matter? Do the rest of the planet also have it wrong or are they all following Kev07's misguided Labour lead.

He's blowing all the Liberal parties money...doofus

I speak and write in English, not American English.

I spell colour with a U the same way I spell labour with a U, you can follow the Americanisation of all things if you wish.

Here's a clue

During the early years of the ALP, the Party was referred to by various titles differing from colony to colony. It was at the 1908 Interstate (federal) Conference that the name 'Australian Labour Party' was adopted. In its shortened form the Party was frequently referred to as both 'Labor' and 'Labour', however the former spelling was adopted from 1912 onwards, due to the influence of the American labor movement

I repeat I do not speak American what ever that may be and never will.

Fo shizzle I won't.. :)

nice work idiot... you really are quite simply aren't you...

owned.

now back on topic, to the OP, i still say REMAP, not FC.

I too will be spending this money on the car. Was going to spend on interior, but pretty much scrapping that idea.

I have most the suspension sorted, adj sway bars, shocks, springs, camber kits.

Power stuff...

-full 3" exhaust

-high flow turbo

-fuel pump

-injectors

-blitz spec r ebc

-remap

-rev210 intake mod

-FMIC

-splitfires (not really power)

i think that's about it. Got good tyres, 18" forged rims (GTR), good brake pads, brake stopper thingy...

i'm going to tip in $100, so i can spend $1k. don't know where to go now though? Any thoughts?

I'm really quite simply what? Imbecile.

As I was explaining to your fellow simpleton.

I do not use "American" English, It's a bastardisation of OUR language.

Did you miss that part of the post or was it beyond your comprehension?

You really are clever aren't you.

Thanks for your input Gonad, appreciated.

Boned!

I'm giving my handout back...

REGO! :P

I think I'll bank the change in protest... or to just continue the trend with what a large number of recipients will do... minimally stimulating the economy.

But in answer to Dreamr33's question, if i were you I'd spend it on suspension mods. Like someone mentioned earlier sways, and a front and rear strut brace, or some second hand shocks in good condition.

well, there you go... a piece of history from 1912, i was not aware of this. But where is this influence now?

i apologise and withdraw my comments (if i could edit)

to the OP, how many k's has your 33 done? $900 prob won't cover it, but will go quite close to doing a 100,000km service

Not 100% sure, Might give Jim Berry a call and see what he can do for me.

I have heard he can do a pretty good set up for about $900. Even if it's a bit more it doesn't worry me.

I just don't want something that is going to be heavy and a dog in traffic.

Looks like I'll be putting the money towards a new set of tyres

yup $500 of ours went on marshal mactra tx's

making a rear swaybar atm, another 25$ for some solid steel rod, and wednesday is dyno-day.

200 change out of that ^ to put towards cosmetic touchups, maybe even panda-style :)

yes, but you still run into the problem of tuning. Yeah, you can just run a new turbo with a boost controller but you don't really see the value out of any of these extra mods unless you get it tuned.

I still say ECU Remap @ Status Tuning, this way whatever mods you do in the future, you can get the most potential out of them.

    • Howdy friends, So another weird one today, I was looking into replacing some broken clips holding the front grille for the R32 GTR (part number 01553-03831), and noticed the brackets which are supposed to hold the grille in place were also missing 😑. I do recall seeing this issue many years ago, but didn't fix it at the time. A quick look on eBay and I was able to find the genuine brackets, along with all the screws which suited the headlights (part numbers 26042-08U05,26092-08U05). Happy days!....  Once they arrived however there was an extra nut in the packaging which implied that there should also be a bolt or a stud, and sure enough, after a bit of searching I found this thread from 2013, and @Ants clearly shows a stud should be present. Reading around a bit more, it's possible the headlights on my car are the "povo pack" headlights as mentioned by @funkymonkey in this thread way back in 2008. This could explain why the studs are missing on my set of headlights. Looking at the headlight diagram I wasn't able to see a suitable part number for the stud itself. The headlight did indeed have a recess that looked like it would accept a stud, but interestingly no thread or anything obvious how the stud would be affixed to the headlight, I suspect it may have been glued in, press fit, or melted into the plastic at the factory. Another member may be able to clarify if they happen to have a genuine set of N1 headlamps. The only thing we have to work with within the recess is a keyway which likely is there to prevent the stud from rotating within the recess. In any case, back to 3D printing, I put together a model which acts like a pug with a friction fit inside this recess, making use of the keyway so it doesn't rotate while tightening a bolt. Printing in TPU will allow it to slightly swell making a nice snug fit without cracking the part. I've designed the adaptor it to accept an 20 mm M6 bolt (stainless with a cap head in my case), as opposed to the standard M5 stud and I made use of the standard galvanised split washer that came with the genuine brackets from Nissan. Once the bolt and screws were all in place, giving the bracket a gentle shake gave the classic "shaking the car" feeling, very solid, which gives me confidence this is going to be able to hold on much better than the janky solution which seems to have been here for the past decade or so. Overall I'm really pleased with how this turned out and maybe there are more people out there running these headlights without a centre stud at all!

    • Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.
    • Hope the cans went down well at least 
    • 255 can't go wrong with the price.
    • When I was replacing my pump due to being stranded in the wrong state, I went with the Deatschwerks 320lph kit. It is a direct plug in to the stock wires, harness, everything. It comes with a plug... but you can plug the OEM plug directly into this thing. https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD Downside: Won't actually flow that much on boost if you want to push it on E85, but it's comparable to the 040/255 etc. Little more actually.
