after selling my RB26 S13 start of last year to fund my track car i have finally got it to the stage where i am happy to just drive it.

It has come a long way (no pun intended) since i shipped it over from JPC in Western Australia. Turning up with a dead clutch (which was replaced by the seller) and a fairly average body after finishing up second in the WA drift series last year i had a lot of maintenance to do to get it up to scratch.

Tidied it up a fair bit and took it to its first track day, was a success even tho i managed to shatter a cast rear hub :/ got it replaced over night and finished somewhere in the top 10.

Did some more tidying up, picked up a few local sponsors, 8 new matching rims, some vinyl and decent tyre's and we were back at the track. The new grip was amazing but car was severely down on power which we couldn't work out track side (ended up being dead EBC) and still managed to smash a drive shaft. But got some more valuable seat time in the car.

Pulled the car apart one last time and removed the S15 front for good. Custom 180sx conversion guards, type X front bar and a S13 bonnet with projector headlights had the car looking alot meaner. replaced drive shaft with a reco unit and back to the track with Ferds and Project D guys for a prac day at WSID on the return road (video below)

The night before i stopped in to see Chea at Powertune and had a freshen up tune performed. Made 250kw keeping it ultra safe at my request.

Was a killer day at WSID the following day and got some more valuable seat time with some fast 3rd gear entries and learning alot about how the car handles with some pace behind it. Blew another drives haft, same side but luckily someone had a spare, some cash exchanged hands and we were back on the track.

After this day i managed to secure a few extra minor sponsors to help out, and the car has received a full CAMO vinyl wrap for the 2012 season. Just waiting for some room at the signwriters so i can take car back in for the sponsor decals to be fitted.

Would like to welcome to the team

      Compatible rear drive shafts R34 N/A?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      They should do. I have S14 (or something S chassis, anyway) driveshafts in my R32 (because my diff flanges have 3x2). They're the right length. When you go looking for R32/3/4 driveshafts (for turbos), they're all the same thing, so are the same length. So there really shouldn't be any reason why those cheapies from JJ won't also fit an R34. R32/3 NA should also be the same thing. The (3x the price) D-Max ones are uni-fit. They have 5x1 and 3x2 bolt holes and say they cover all the cars. So that would also suggest that they are all the same except for the flanges. And in that case, the flange goes both ways. I'd be buying the D-Max ones if I ever have to replace a shaft. Because that will open up diff options without needing to juggle shafts also. Juggling shafts is gay.

      GReddy Injector Help!

      By ChoppedSpots · Posted

      Yeah with the adaptors they do look like the photo above - just the fitment within the plenum itself and then further with the rail to the intake is questionable - we shall see tomorrow hopefully once I get some replies from Aeroflow, maybe those bosses are the missing piece....

      GReddy Injector Help!

      Should be fine, if you have it sitting too far in, you end up just spraying the walls and have shit idle. You "can" run them like that, however I don't think it's a great idea (also depends on your plenum, might be good to just get the injector bosses first, mock it up and see if you need to get the bottom extension) Ideally your injectors, with the extension should look like this  (Not my photos, just Google)

      GReddy Injector Help!

      By ChoppedSpots · Posted

      Thanks for the replies guys, it's really appreciated.  It seems the kit was supposed to come with those injector bosses but hasn't. Unsure if they'll help as even with the adaptors to make them a 3/4 height injector they still sit too far out so mount the fuel rail?

      Hello, I am looking to replace my two rear drive shafts in my R34 N/A Skyline but I'm finding conflicting information. Do S13/S14/S15 or R32 NA/ R33 NA fit? https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-rear-drive-shaft-l-h-nissan-silvia-s13-s14-s15-3x2-type?currency=AUD&srsltid=AfmBOoqY7EwDaYCUoUU3mxxZ_qrUXkVVHiV4MIN7ozoar6scjnEiekv- would this fit?
