I'm a van... I'm a van... suck my diiiiiiiiiiiick... I'm a van.

:rant:

I was just saying...

Don't worry :D

I know your cars a wingless.

BMW make vans..?

hey thanks scotty

how many pages is it

the one im looking for should be 150+ pages

its 204 pages and when you scroll to page 4 it says modification notice: GTR model has been introduced, i went through it a bit and it has the whole engine diagram and stuff like that.

yeah?

link me so i can see.... major cbf to look for myself atm :rofl:

i think you should do it right and go defi, it will go well with your car and you wont have these fake defi ones and think damn i wish i waited a bit longer and just got defi's.

I couldn't spend the money on defis.. just a gauge really they are so expensive.. I got cheap mechanical boost gauge and works fine.. hits 10PSI and stops like the car should

thats fair enough, im the opposite when i see something i want ill save up and get it i wont settle for second best, i like to buy the best when i can.

Also is that all that your gtr is running on 10psi?

yeh mate 10-11 psi AFAIK there is a 10 psi restrictor in it which is indicated by a yellow band on one of the 'boost tubes' (not sure what they are actually called >_<)

if i had a 34 gtr then might be a different story with gauges though :D , i would spend money on accessories depending on how much the car is worth in the first place i guess.. my general rule is to spend half the cars value doing it up.. IE if you buy a 10k GTST then spend like 5k max on mods.. or else your just throwing money away just my 2cents.

like my brother got his GTST for like 14k.. and has spent like 14k on it over the last few years on things like rims performance mods etc.. and now his kicking himself he didn't just buy a GTR.

dont need gauges for r34 gtr, i got the screen :O

thats a good rule to go by with mods too.

i didnt think you could ever find a gtr still with the boost restrictor in lol. mine was removed before i got it and it runs 1 bar and sometimes peaks a bit higher which im assuming is normal.

i think you should do it right and go defi, it will go well with your car and you wont have these fake defi ones and think damn i wish i waited a bit longer and just got defi's.

Yeah i probably will go defi

want a boost gauge and oil pressure too

pics when i find my cam cable

well hurry the fuck up then

yeh get some decent pics up, yesterday was good weather !

going to get my mate to take some good ones soon, when we both have free time

also in other news my NACA carbon vent came in today, just too late getting home to get it from post office :D

I think I'm queen of breaking that rule. Over $80,000 on a car that cost me $10,000. But I've had it for a long time.

    • I spent the entire of the long weekend going through my garage and I'm now, after 3.5yrs in this house, able to fit a car in. The garage is quite long and the back half has a high enough ceiling for a 2 post lift but it's going to just take too much space and I don't think I'd be able to get around the car if it was in the air. So, in comes the quick lift. It looks perfect. High enough to do most things, I reckon even getting a gearbox out would be doable.  Does anybody here have one? They're fairly cheap (~$3k) considering...  https://www.dtmtrading.com.au/product/quick-lift-portable-vehicle-hoist-3500-kg-worksafe-approved/ I'm also a bit of a non risk taker so I'd probably still use stands when under!  
    • Well now we all see it! I did the same. Then cut it out. Then melted half of it. Then discarded it entirely. So... you're in good company.
    • I just replaced the god awful, sagging, crunchy bonnet insulation. It's something nobody but I see but it's been at me for a while.
    • yeah the south island is stunning, the wifes family is from the west coast down there so we were down there for christmas.   a high 10 would be a stretch but hilarious if it happened. fourth gear is its party gear, i don't have traction to throw more at it at lower speeds. I've found passengers don't think its that fast, i think it's because it has a digital dash so they can't see the needle move so they have no sense of speed
    • You have (externally anyway) a lot of patience!  At the very least your patience has rewarded you financially even if you decided you were over it!! I only just read your first experience of seeing the car, that would have been amazing!  Well documented too! It must be exciting knowing there's only 10 months left until you can get it on a boat and on it's way!!!???
