What's a charge gauge? Different to the volt meter?
-
Nice pickup! Hopefully you keep this thread updated with all the DIY repairs. These seem tempting because they drop value hard when warranty ends haha.

You can go for a mild cam. IMO spending money on the SOHC head isn't worth the money, unless you really like the single cam. You can easily put a VL turbo "kit" on it if you're on a tight budget. But I'd save up and do turbo conversion properly. Quite a bit of info around here and on a site more focused on the R31 Skyline

Projector is probably at end of thread, wind it the other way. It might have popped out of the screw thread. So bake it apart, remove shitty halogen projector, install a good D2S projector, aim, assemble and enjoy.

As per diagram, looks like it's held in by two clips? -

You can look your VIN up on gtr-registry.com and see what comes up -
Wreckers, ebay, gumtree, Facebook groups. I haven't seen roof racks for sale in forums for a long time.

R32 GTR Rear Strut replacement
niZmO_Man replied to Jjtxaz24's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
Before sending the car to auctions, owner in Japan probably swapped out suspension for stuff laying around in a workshop or whatever. But yeah, I'd seriously consider those TEIN streets. -
Professional Help/Advice Needed!
niZmO_Man replied to thebbwing's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
My guesses: Car wants LS1 Fusible links at positive battery, or some sort of connector (e.g. ECU) being dodgy Sell it and buy a WRX oh wait wrong forum -
@shehris hey I don't have an R34 so I can't say, I just go off the Nismo sizes. Ditto to what Kiwi said, those offsets are off. Play with the willtheyfit calculator and crack out tape measure and try to imagine how it would sit on your car.

RB25DET misfire under load/boost
niZmO_Man replied to BASHERnissan's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
Not really, $600-odd for bolt in is good. When you compare it to cheapo red/yellow ones, yes, but they're on par with OEM and cheaper than the R35 route. In the mean time, gap your spark plugs to 0.7mm and see if that makes a difference. -
R32 GTR Rear Strut replacement
niZmO_Man replied to Jjtxaz24's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
Comparing used Bilstein in my Subaru wagon, the TEIN Street Basis Z is quite comfortable. Body control is overall on par (some positives, some negatives). For example, the short travel you can definitely feel, but the "softer" dampening controls bumps quite well even on 6kg/5kg springs. Considering the price, if you're after some standard replacements + lowering they are great. Note that Street is different to the other TEINs, which would be rough as (e.g. the old ones that I had on my 32R). It really depends on your intended use and how much you want to spend. -
Doesn't look like it

Yep, especially when TEIN street starts from less than 400 pounds https://www.demon-tweeks.com/uk/tein-street-advance-z-coilovers-teigsn14-91ss2/ -

Not meeeeeee OP, you should have local Koni and Bilstein options. Hell, if you have standard springs, throw some KYB dampers in and enjoy. If you're after adjustability, spend the money on KW (unless you just want height adjustment, then you can get TEIN street, they're relatively comfortable and cheaper). Nismo S-Tune is a good bolt in upgrade, KYB dampers and uprated springs. Dunno if it's worth the money though.

A31 RB20DET igniter wiring vs R32
niZmO_Man replied to cefiro4's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
Maybe because they came out in 1988, Nissan was like "hmm we have a heap of redtop wiring harnesses lying around, stuff making new silvertop ones, use those instead!"
