Looks pretty clean Adam, not sure about the shopping list on the door as it may attract unwanted police attention for mods but if you like it then its all good :)

Plenty of cars around NSW and certainly around Sydney, check the events section for any cruises etc

Oh and if you plan on sticking around, sign up as a member with SAU NSW as its a good thing to have when events etc come up (Like the SAU Nats in November)

To be honest i want the stickers gone and the wheels, but there were a few stickers on the back window that took sooo long to take off, so looking at the shopping list every single letter needs to be peeled off.

Any tips on that? And do you think i would have any luck selling those rims so i could buy something nice?

Thanks for the welcomes.

Spending a long time going through the 100 pages of wheel fitment sizes yikes!!!

Probably a heat gun or leave it in the sun for a while will help! NO blades or anything to wreck your paint!

GOOD call on the wheels too, what sort of look do you want? Are you into performance and handling or simply chasing looks? It will alter your options :)

Yea im not for bling. Loving the GTR wheels but not the price tag..... Also has rego due next month. The 350z wheels are cheap as chips and look ok.......

But im not sure, dont know i could stretch for rays or work wheels as nice as they would be.

At the moment with the car i want to fix replace any broken worn stuff before mods.

The centre console trim, vents door handles were all sprayed white and looked terrible so i went to a wreckers and just replaced all thoses bits.

Sounds like youve saved the poor car from its embarrassing stunt as a F&F stunt double :P

GTR rims look good, suit 32GTR's better than ours but I always wanted a set in black for track days etc!!

For cheap wheels you have the Rota/Varstoen (can't remember spelling) but they are imitations of name brand rims, could be an option until you save for a nice set down the track?

Cool i will keep an eye out for those brands, and i feel i am saving the poor old girl.

You should see the front mount return pipe, it travels across under the car!!!!!!

It scrapes on everything sooo dodgy poor thing.

Just got a Blitz return flow to replace all the dodgyness and use the stock holes pipes.

welcome.

Haha the R34 is tough as nails..... I thrashed mine for 3 years before deciding to upgrade to where I am now.... Loved it!

    • So we have most the interior back in, and for the first time with one OEM speaker hooked up. The 31 is running, driving and now tunes!!! Hahaha yet another step for the sub that sat 10m under for two weeks!!! unbelievable really 👌 lots of love work and not giving up on her. Seen so many youngsters part way less, and in way better condition. I’m stubborn, thinking another problem is just a hurdle to overcome, One at a time. IMG_9277.mov
    • That is correct. I'm using a modified ABS ring and a ZF speed sensor on my rear diff for speed input. I'm running a Haltech ecu. 
    • Been busy with the newborn. We originally thought we were going to go for a third, but we're good with two lol. He's starting to actually sleep now so I've had some energy to work on the car. It's been parked away in the garage since late November due to winter.  I went ahead and redid all my head oil drains. I originally had my front and rear head drain going into the same pipe but have since split them up. I also added an Ethanol content sensor to get ready to run E85 this summer. Tossed it on my return line. Sensor sits nicely under my intake manifold.    I also have a lot of parts that came in for my rear end. I'll be swapping over to a 3.3 final drive and doing the GK teck anti squat mod. While the rear subframe is off, I'll also change every bushing. We're planning on buying another house soon with the condition that I get at a minimum a 2 door garage, so I'll wait to have more room for this. Now onto the strange things that recently happened... After changing the lower rad hose (It had been sitting in my cabinet for well over a year and was the last hose I had to replace), I let the car idle in the garage to bleed my coolant. After running for a few minutes, it started missing. Got much worst within a minute or two and then stalled and would not restart. My crank sensor decided to crap itself. No damage, no explanation, just died. I went ahead and replaced it with another ZF sensor but the heavier duty stainless model with a shield. Tossed that in and started right up. Has anyone else seen this? I hate when things fail without cause. Luckily this was a blessing in disguise... This lead me to recheck my timing. It seems I may have had a beer or two the last time I had set my TDC angle as I was off exactly 5 degrees... I miscounted a line haha. I was running 5 degrees less then commanded. It's a little embarrassing but helps explain why my dyno operator seemed to think I should be making more then 478rwkws.        
    • Sharing results from recent Liberty Walk R35 GTR, since they are still considered as somesort of a V36 Skyline. We do them turbos too.

The build list for R35 GTR enthusiasts as follow : HyperGear high flowed stock turbos in SS1 (G25-660 specs) Custom titanium intake pipes. Vspec performance titanium front pipes. Vspec performance 4" titanium exhaust. Upgrade fuel pumps. 1200cc injectors. Ignition coilpacks Hks intake plenum. Hks intercooler piping. Greddy intercooler. Greddy bovs. Top-secret coolant reservoir. Emtron ecu. Straight E85. Built gear box.  
    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
