Hey guys,

i have recently been defected for having after market "DRIFT" bucket seats in my R34. I was wondering if s15 seats would fit into the car as i can the front seats off a mate, or if you have any other ideas for seats that would pass the inspection, and fit into the r34? Cheers Mike.

Not sure if they fit, best option is to borrow some standard R34 seats.

Which Drift seats did you get done for? Pics? I was under the impression that they were ADR approved?

yeah if they are DRIFT seats they are ADR approved and thus not defectable. S series seat rails are slighly shorter on 1 hole! other 3 will bolt up i believe

I thought that was the case... OP please get pics and then if that is the only defect you received then i would be fighting it!

+1

on the bottom of the seat will be the ADR tag or underneathe, if they are genuine then fight it and forget about the defect! if in NSW call SDRO and the ombudsman and fight!

cost you a little time but we need to stand against this b/s all the time

lol getting photo's for you, nah i also got done for pod filter not in sealed, my BOV venting to the atmosphere ride height its at 90mm i think it has to be 100mm? i have fully adjustable pedders coil over's but i was told that these are illegal also, by a mate..............?

Well get the pod filter and BOV sorted out, that is asking for trouble and not really doing you any favours in terms of performance gains!

yeah i didn't realise the bov was ilegal so im getting a stock one and fixing the intake, its just the seats that are gonna screw me but if the are adr approved? i attached a photo of them..........i only picked up the car last sat the rego wasn't even transferred into my name yet, the bloke was just on a power trip

    • Because that’s not what any of them are building these heads or blocks for. It’s to hold over over 1000hp at the wheels without breaking and none of that stuff is required to make power 
    • Dort sounds above 3k rpm are dorty 🤣 I might krinkle black the alloy 🤔
    • It makes you wonder, all these people starting to make a billet replacement head, I wonder if any have thought about trying to adapt tech from newer engines into them. You're already at the full design stage to make a billet head... Why not really spice it up and had some more modern tech into the mix too...
    • Connect all the plumbing up properly. The actual worst part about having the turbo unable to actually build boost, is you can and likely would over soon the turbo if you drove the car (free rev while stationary isnt likely to manage it).   If you do have an air leak as Duncan suggested, you'll have a bad time as the AFM will be saying different to reality.   As you have had the engine out, I'd go over all electrical connections again. If you have a consult cable, plug it in, and see what the ECU thinks is going on. Did you touch the timing belt? If so, double check your timing on the gears is correct AND put a timing light on it while it's idling and see what ignition setting you have. Is the AFM you've installed the one that was in the car previously? You said you replaced seals, what seals exactly? What have you had apart?   From memory when I had my RB25DET with factory throttle, there was two plugs the TPS plug on the loom could go to. One would leave the car running like shit, the other made it work, I think one plug on the TPS area was for something else (an option). It's too many years since I saw that part of the loom to remember properly though.   Is the car idling smooth (as smooth as an RB can)? Does it smell fuelled up?   I have a feeling either timing in timing belt is off, or a sensor isn't right.
    • Theres still skid pan and motokhana days up in QLD at least that are $100 or less. The ones that are ran as "driver training" less so, they're expensive, but just normal skid pan days like SAU ran are still low cost. And thats one of the places I learned to be a lariken, purely by asking for passenger rides, and how people were doing crazy things. Reese gave me plenty of pointers back in the day for skid pan! And yes Duncan, I will never forget your pointers for track work. Especially after Neil got out saying "I am NEVER getting in the car with him again!" 😛
