so with the racechrono which one exactly did you get its kind of confusing on the site to which one does what a little assistance please.

Or do you know of anything else that can display track and Speedo at the same time. I'm sure other people would be keen in knowing this too.

Hey Bryce

So the things you need.

Racechrono - This is the data logger. You download this to your Andriod or iPhone and just load up the software. So when you race you load up the race track your racing on. Press start and it does the rest :) So you download the software through your phone.

External GPS - This connects via blue tooth to the racechrono software. This is just for accuracy purposes. As the internal GPS in the phone is shit.

GoPro - Use this to record the video

When I race I mount my phone on the dash, that way I have live timing and sector times

Once finished export the Racechrono data logging to your computer.

Use racechrono2avi software to convert to avi.

Use a software program like Adobe Premier to overlay the two videos :)

Damn you google chrome !

Nice build. What kits are you going to use? Obviously gtr converting?

Tell me how you go with mounting the front bar by the way. My cruise gtr bar doesn't line up with the bonnet properly (there is a gap).

Thanks kit is from JDL, I have heard its a good fit. Yup GTR converting

Do you have pics of your setup? Is the gap due to the rubber strip not being there? Also what brand bonnet and front bumper?

Do you have the kit yet? I've heard it's a good fit but the fibreglass is a little thin?

The gap wouldn't be fixed by the rubber strip, and I'm yet to figure out whether it's the front bar or the bonnet creating it. Could also be related to the support bars underneath but all of my panel gaps are fine around fenders, etc (genuine gtr fenders).

CRUISE front bar, not sure on bonnet brand, bought it from the shop that did the work for cheap.

Only pic I have on this computer atm:

You can just see the gap there.

Wow

That is a very nice looking R34. Love to see more pics of it

Yeah I have the kit, but i know nothing of quality. Vu from DT Panels said he thought the fibreglass and kit were of good quality. So we shall see. The kit should be fitted in the next fortnight I would hope. Then he will do the respray after. WIll let you know how it goes

Bonnet to me looks like a seibon style bonnet due to the non-sharp edges of the bonnet fins. I also have a GTR carbon seibon bonnet

Appreciate the comment.

Yeah seibon rings a bell actually. It was around $1200 new but I got it much cheaper, so not sure if genuine or?

Are you moulding in gtr rear fenders or staying gtt?

If you don't mind me asking could I get some info on where you bought the JDL kit, parts you purchased, and roughly how much it cost shipped?

PM the above if you like.

Edit: Sorry to clutter your thread man, I'm just a 34 styling whore :P

Edited by TM7GTR

Ohhh I used to have the full JDL kit even with Z Tune guards got broke and I sold it. People said east bear this or not bit the JDL kit was actually damn good got mine into Aus for around $2200 full kit without bonnet.

Keen to see how it could have looked if I went ahead with it.

She'll be right I got my bonnet for only around $700

Moulding on GTR fenders, going the whole 9 yards

I have a contact of a workshop that ships JDL kits in the UK. JDL do not ship direct to overseas customers anymore. They have new owners. THe whole kit excl bonnet and rear bar costs a bit over $2k incl shipping

    • Well some mostly good news and some slight bad news.  Good news is cylinder 6 did in fact only require a honing and I'm good to run my 86.5mm pistons again. I should also get the block back by end of week. Bad news, had a few surprises pop up. First, main and rod bearings were trashed. No sign of any heat damage. I knew right away what caused this... I had not packed my oil pump originally and spent a lot more time than I would have liked cranking the motor to get oil pressure. It sounded fine once started so I chucked it up to luck and forgot about it. Luckily rod and crank are fine and just need new bearings. Engine builder agreed that this was the cause.    Another surprise that carbon covered up very well that I didn't catch, something got sucked up and went through cylinder 1, 2 and 3. Luckily this was no cause for concern, just needed a bit of cleaning up. Valves look fine but he will vacuum test the head this week to confirm. I'm presuming this was something left over from welding my intercooler piping, but we'll never know. I'm going to thoroughly reclean everything.    So all in all, happy the motor is fine, and I'll get it back much sooner than expected. I'll also be taking the time to convert my WMI system over to direct port. I'll snap some pictures of that when the parts come in. 
    • I understand, thanks. Yeah I wouldn't want the car to tip over, I'll try and use the sills, I don't want to risk smashing the chassis rails. I ordered some rubber pucks that have a hopefully big enough slotting. If the front right gives me trouble I can always just make a wood block. I'll measure and inspect the sills closer once I actually take the car up. I hope so, but the rubber blocks I had in hand so far were pretty damn firm, if they are that hard they won't give much way. I'll let you know what happens. Angle grinding rubber isn't one of my favorite tasks. I'll probably start a build thread soon, for my own documentation and "log" as well as sharing what's going on with the car.
    • Kinda something I have been thinking about.  To be honest, we bought it already driving like that.  So there's no telling how long it actually has been driving like this.  Hopefully damage is too bad when we drop the pan.   I am having a hard time finding a site that sells the solenoid for the 5 speed auto, do you have any suggestions?
    • That'll be most likely down the road...  LOL  
    • a stock / option or aftermarket?
