Thought this might get more attention and responses than general maintence..

The RTA have kindly given me a 2 month holiday.......

My car is sitting out the front now..... taught the gf to take it for a drive today..... scary experience..... anyways while im unable to drive it im going to mod/fix it up......

Firstly its going to cop an awesome detailing job, polish, wax and interior.....

Looking at making an amp rack for the boot (pain in the ass for a 32) and doing some red vynal work for the door trims, painting brake calipers and trying to protect the rear guards from rusting out more (dont know how?!)

Apart from that ill need my boost fixes from my gf and mates and ill def be taking it to the track.... also whatever dosent go into petrol (which is alot) will be going into beer

can anyone think of anything else i can do or give me some pointers in doing the suggested above...

thanks guys.... 59 more days to go!!!

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
