All the information is usefull.... but its a deregistered cefiro that me and my mate have got...its not going to be chasing the fastest of times at the strip...its a car that me and him can take to the friday night drags and have some fun...becuase it cant exactly get street legal here in NZ.

I just wanted to do somthing that "i" thought would be cool...but was wondering about the performance etc because i still want a fast car!

and about the gt3040....its the turbo i have sitting in my shed...i dont have a couple of grand to spend on a new one...but the gt3040 can still get the job done. that brumby is pretty much what i was going for but just wanted some advice

cheers

Sup ,

I think it would give the car character :laugh: and also raise the chances of blowing a comp wheel from someshit getting stuk in it lmaoooo

(BITCH TIME)

Im also slowly starting to get sick of idiots giving shit to people who are "modifying" their cars.. mostly these people giving shit because they cant afford to do it them selves but honestly ... its becoming a joke u cant post anything on this forum with respect to doing some fun mods without being hounded by 50 year old jaguar enthusiasts who are STRICT on keeping their car FACTORY because all the smart engineers built the cars that way for a reason!!! ITS HIGH FOR A REASON ITS GOT BODY ROLL FOR A REASON BLA BLA BLA PUT SOME BLODDY COILOVERS ON IT N SHUT UR MOUTH sorry im just angry lol venting...etc.. what im saying is.. MOST of Nissans profits are from the modification aspect to their performance cars.. reason they dont put fkn heavyduty clutches in their cars.. COZ THEY KNOW they gona be profiting from all the clutch manufactures making HD clutches for their cars... hence u drop a patch and u need a new clutch... woah massive bitch ok im over it...

(BITCH OVER)

night boys :mad:

Couldn't agree more. If humans never considered a few dumb/off-centre/left-field ideas, where would we be? Good on him for thinking about something. Leave the boy alone!

(and so WHAT if someone wants to do something for looks. Looks is okay.)

No disrespect but you think Nissan make money on companies like Exedy, HKS, Blitz etc making clutches on their cars? You honestly think Nissan don't do something to a car because there plan is the car will be modified and some how they will make "MOST" of thier profits this way? So Nissan didn't put a $3000 triple plate carbon clutch into your R32 GTS4 not beacuse it would make no sense to do so on a car rated at 140kw, but because they knew you would modify it, go out and buy a super expensive 800HP clutch and this in turn would make them money?

I think you need to do a bit more research on the construction/engineering aspect of designing something.

R.I.P.S in NZ have built an r34 drag car with the turbo half sticking out of the bonnet and have a duct that goes directly to the turbo inlet, you can see the turbo, its like right there spinning away... These guys have built a fair few cars and mostly drag, so they might know what they are doing...

Bonnet%20hole%207.jpg

i got a spare fibreglass bonnet which i will be cutting into, and making like a ramp piece to guide air down to the inlet. its not my daily bonnet so just something to do at the drags.

Instead of running a pod, the other option like i have seen fairly often is a strong mesh cover over the inlet so it will stop most large-ish things getting in.

    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
