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.

I've seen you blasting past Maccas a few times (the one just up from the freeway, trying not to go into too much detail here!) good to see the car being enjoyed!

Thanks guys. I have bought multiple copies to keep as momento. I am absolutely thrilled.

Cheers Matt

It was a white GTR Racepace special :) Nice work on the feature.

Hi Matt,

The looks hot in the Mag good work, i see your using a PFC Apexi how does the car drive?

Regards

Bobby

Thanks Bobby. The Power FC works well and car drives smoothly even with v Cam inetgrated with it. The idling is stable on Cold start. All other systems work well - air con; etc.

I am sure looking forward to a prominent magazine feature of your R34 build.

cheers

Matt

Yeah, I will be very soon. Going to be difficult to let her go, but sacrifices need to be made, unfortunately.

Good luck with the sale, I hope it goes to a worthy home!

Deposit taken for ownership transfer.

Good luck to the pending new owner! I am confident that he will look after her as much as I have.

I have certainly taken a 'big' financial loss, but I still look at this entire build experience as being a gain and absolutely 'priceless', especially the friendships built over the years with fellow forum enthusiasts. I guess the finale was the feature in HPI.

A sincere thank you for all who have taken interest in this car.

(Apologies for all photos will be deleted to respect privacy of new owner)

Cheers

Matt

Well done on the build and feature. It's a shame it had to move on, but you just made someone very happy.

Hope they're on the forum and we can keep track of her progress, and lap times.

The owner is on here but there most likely won't be any lap times.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Interesting that it has 2 to the USB stick. Are the ones to the USB stick different? Or labelled anything at all? Telstra 4G is Band 28 is the long range one you want, it's 700mHz. I'm trying to do some reading on the Cel-Fi stuff, but I can't find any decent info online that makes me feel comfortable being able to work out the sort of antennas we could get away to swapping it over to. The antennas I'm starting to do some stuff with at work, are a transparent antenna. They're designed to stick onto the window. Which means you wouldn't even have the antenna outside the car. Volkswagen have just started using the exact same types of antennas on some of their new cars (And from the same antenna manufacturer). But, RF stuff is a bit of a dark art some days, and getting it wrong in your car could make for a terrible waste of money trying to swap antennas :S

      What do you do with all the spares?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm not going to lie Duncan, Saturday and Sunday were pretty rough days. The sort of work I was doing would previously have ended up with me spending about an hour and a half chatting with Neil. Firstly about something I had a question about, and then both of us rambling off on tangents.  I think how Neil did things, and his attitude to getting it done is helping me in part to get this stuff done. Then I can actually do the things I enjoy more easily

      ER, HR bonnet question

      By RBjay34 · Posted

      Talked to another R34 GT-T owner, he said bonnet of his car once fell and slammed from full height because of strong wind at a car show and nothing was damaged or broken, so I guess I'm just overthinking some things but yeah, just making sure I'm not damaging the car anyhow cause wanna keep it for a long time.

      ER, HR bonnet question

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I would say 100% that it doesn't matter at all. I have an Al bonnet and I drop it sometimes, push it others. Have done so for 25 years and there's no way to tell that either has caused any problems (because there are no problems).
