I'd like to see some before and after proof of the V-Cam system working (i.e. actually tuned correctly)... I'm in very close contact with the HKS tuner from Sydney and it's not just as simple as what you've put down.

HKS people will tell you getting the f-con software and dongle is impossible but it is available if you know the right people, 4k and its yours.... in english. i have no doubt beno did the v-cam in his sleep :blink:

Let's start from the very beginning...... 2002 BNR34 VSpec II NUR purchased from Zele International in Japan through Powerplay Imports. It was delivered over two years ago. The car was in 5A condit

Picture of Racepace stage one exhaust as requested. This may look like any garden variety aftermarket exhaust, but there are lots of hidden sneaky tricks to make the turbos spool hard and fast.

Just another admirer of this amazing build. You've built something totally unique, tasteful, and still personalised.

It would take a lot of balls to spend this much on a Skyline. I dare say a few people have scoffed and asked why you didn't buy one of the exotics, but i'm glad we're not all the same, or builds like this wouldn't happen. Thanks for sharing.

Congrats on the Amazing build Matt,

For those discussing the V-cam, I found this clip from best motoring where Tsuchia takes out the HKS Driving Performer 34 GTR which is fitted with V-cam. Just something to look at.

The HKS 34 comes in around the 5min mark

Bit of a noob question, but why did you lose the EBD, trac control, stability control? Can it not be maintained with these modifications? Is it simply a computer thing? In the cars that I am used to modifing you can keep these features even when running 400rwkw.

By the way, this is a very classy car. you should be proud.

school holidays huh??

pretty sure R34 GTR never came out with any of that stuff

No not school holidays, just an honest question. Stability control is something you would expect on a car of this caliber.

Don't jump to conclusions.

definitely no stability control... well, not in the Euro type sense. No TC i'm pretty sure either. GT-T has it though.

EBD???

EBD: Electronic Brake Force Distribution

It says earlier in the thread this feature was lost.

Mate,

Awesome car. I've got a 2002 R34 M Spec Nur GTR tuned from factory by Mines. Puts outs 425KW at all four wheels. Scary fast. It's had over NZ$350k invested into it over the years and has a full Mines VX Titanium exhaust.

You can check it out here: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=259634078

Look forward to hearing about your future plans and progress with the Nur.

Cheers

Phil

EBD wasn't lost as the car never had it.

I think you were getting confused with what Matt thought was a little scary about having this car WITHOUT a million electronic aids, ie relative to a R35. Not that he laments the fact of 'losing' them.

The car has ATESSA (sp?) torque split type 4WD, that's the 'safety' net i guess you could say

Yes, SS8_Gohan is spot on with the explanation.

I didn't mean to create confusion. BNR34 came with NO electronic stability aids, only ATTESA (acronym for Advanced Total Traction Engineering System for All-Terrain).

Thanks Phil! Your car is well known internationally! I drew inspiration from your car and a few other well known ones - the Top Secret Competizione R34; Jay's JDMEgo R34 in The States; 'Darkchild's BNR34 from Malaysia etc.

Please don't sell it (if you were thinking about selling it)

I love your car in black as well.

Cheers

OK, That was the explanation I was after. I can see how it would be rather hairy, but that is half the fun of it. I think you need to take it to the track.... Wakefield maybe... a bit far for you I know, but thats my local. Once again... Enjoy!

I have been a good boy all year, so Santa rewarded me with some of JDM's finest for Christmas....

Nismo Heaven! Dry carbon spoiler flap - supposedly 750g weight saving (big deal) and more downforce at speed due to raised gurney at the trailing edge according to Nismo. To me its an obsession with carbon fibre!

Look at the perfectly symmetrical and even dry carbon weave up close:

Even the striation of the weave is visible. Unlike 'wet' carbon, there is NO gloss clear resin overlay on 'dry' carbon. I UV protected it with a few coats of 'Zaino'

Next up Garage Defend Carbon Cooling radiator panel. The supposed benefit is that the panel will divert more air to the intercooler and radiator. But again its my obsession with carbon fibre again!

Last, thank you to Import Monster, I was able to get my hands on these out of production Tein RS Circuit Master from Yahoo Japan. There are rare and are hard to acquire. The spring rates are F12K R10K with helper spring setup. Fully damper and rebound adjustable. The cool reservoir oil canisters look trick. The shock cylinders are fully anodized aluminum in cool Tein green. The surface is textured with fine vertical striae for a more 'upmarket' feel. The sturt tops are a bit weathered because they are 'used' afterall. They will be overhauled and revalved in custom Racepace spec in the New Year most likely by Fulcrum in QLD who is the official Tein distributor in Australia. The Racepace suspension setup is proven on a number of competitive Targa and circuit cars.

Enough of specs, now the pictures:

Yes, I know I am insane and obsessed with my build. A birdie tells me I need some serious counseling in 2010. :)

Happy New Year everyone! Safe Driving!

      R34 Diff oil

      Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in

      R34 Diff oil

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
