is anyone gonna take photos of the FMIC installation? Would be good if someone could post it up after its done since I don't think I can make it on Saturday

Someone tell me the address plz, I'll pop by on sunday

Hopefully the installation will be quite well documented... I'll be at work from 8am to 2pm so I don't know what the plan is yet...

For the final time: this event is on this SATURDAY

FMIC going in today :):(:D

At the moment I'm still at work - anxious couple of hours before I go back North to see my baby get a new set of lungs :P

Who's there? I don't know... what will the 34 look like when I get back? I don't know... The only thing I do know is that by sunset I will have a new FMIC and SAFC2 in there!!!

Nice to meet you too Steve :blink:

The Latest News:

Well the FMIC has been installed and it works brilliantly right now... you guys should hear the noise that comes from that turbo now :D All in all it took about 10 hours all up including complete dissasembly, fabrications, and modifications. But the overall experience was well worth the wait and sweat. Biggest dilemmas included: getting bonnet to close properly, getting the fan right so it doesn't hit the piping, and finally (and most obviously) getting the front bar modified so that it still looks like an R34 :rofl:

On a positive note though, just like to say that the JustJap intercooler and the R34 Piping from JustSR were simply fantastic! Everything bolted together nicely without any head scratching - cheers to those two places for their help on this one :D

Once again, I'd like to thank Mitch at GCWP for all the hard work... actually got him up at 7am LOL. Looking forward to next time already. Also a big thanks to all those who droped by to have a chat and offer advice.

The bad news is that the factory air snorkel no longer fits so I will have to decide on either having to fabricate a new snorkel that does, or go pod?!? Still weighing up those two options.

The second piece of bad news, well not so bad actually, is that we didn't get around to installing the SAFC2 which was a shame. But there is always next week for that :D :D Can't wait.

All of the photos and a full write up is being developed on Project R34 - SATANIC so wait for that one to be released.

Oh yes, there will be quite a lot of stock R34 gear being put up for sale in the FOR SALE section... so keep an eye out there.

Looking at getting my rear speakers (and front splits if they arrive on time) installed this weekend... same place as always; just need to check with my mate to see what time he's free :)

Also going to get my clear indicators installed - sick of the amber colored plastic which you can see from a mile away :( Picked up a set of Front and Side Clear Nismo's from Kudos Motorsports...

  • 3 weeks later...

Purchased a front lip for the 34 from carmate... It was advertised as a GTR-style lip, but other members have informed me that it is a copy of the factory GTT lip. Bloody false advertising!

Anyways, fitting will be on Saturday for all those interested. Hopefully our mate who is a body kit expert will be there to guide us along :D

any chance of a location of where you are getting it fitted? keen to pop by on a number of occasion but was alway so damn busy. Finally free this weekend, really interested in seeing it go on.

cheers all

    • who can tell me what this is and why my car talks to me? i think it's hilarious. it's on my r34 right above the drivers-side storage compartment. the characters under the wrench say "inspection". every 10 or 20 startups, a voice starts talking in japanese from some speaker in this area below the dashboard. it says a few sentences then shuts off. different from the ETC card reader voice that happens every time i start the car. I've never found the speaker, i've never been able to catch the voice and translate what it says, and i've never found a forum thread that tells me how to reset the warnings. the holes in between the symbols are NOT buttons you can press to reset the warnings. anyone else have this? has the demon lord from Hereditary infected my car?!
    • Would you ever vent this bonnet or will it be unnecessary?
    • Happy new years folks! Wishing you all a successful year of money pit ownership!  So the subframe bushes are out....   Ok, who else has done that job before??  What a C U Next Tuesday of a job that is!  Be glad to not do that again in a hurry! I think I explored every option available to chop the middle section of the bushes out, most of them unsuccessfully! I tried a holesaw, die grinder, normal drill bit, air chisel, etc, etc. The true success happened by accident when I'd decided to try a step drill I spotted on the bench on the way passed.  See, there are benefits to never cleaning up after yourself! It RIPPED through so so much better than the drill bit. It has to be the skinniest one available so its small enough to fit between the inner tube and outer casing but it made easy work of it.  First one i hammered the shit out of... New method- 20250102_185506.mp4   I did the other 5 in less time than I fluffed around with the first one. With the first couple I used the cut off saw (sawsall as the yanks love to call them) to cut a break in the outer casings. Even with that they're still a prick to hammer or air chisel out.  The last few i just went rambo with the air chisel without cutting them. I over cut one of the early ones so will hit the with the mig to fill the cut then sand it off smooth.  The carnage left over-   I've also been "nesting" ie, cleaning up my babies nursery,  ie cleaning the f**king pig sty of a shed. I've got that much shit laying around it's as cluttered as my head!  Getting things put away, in boxes, on shelves, hanging off walls, all to get some working space back again.  Hopefully that keeps me motivated....
    • AFAIK does the base map for Haltech even have the 4D compensation enabled? It's been a while but when I looked at it I remember it was actually using pure TPS as one load signal and MAP for another. Seemed workable but not ideal by any stretch. A lot of people have "make the event-itis" which leads to stuff like this happening.
