Hi mate, Hate EBAY! But interested in your gear for sale... What's the price just outright, no bidding? Also, do you need vehicle specific wiring harnesses for the e-manage? I have a R34GTT...

Thanks Gary, as always you live up to your reputation of being GOD! That was great information, and I will surely base a lot on it... Replies: 1) The turbo I am going for will be similar to the GCG hi-flow variants; it will be bolt on using all the stock lines (bored out for greater cooling via oil + coolant). This shouldn't be too much overkill as it will allow for further power later on when a reliable ECU system becomes available. 2) The FPR is relatively easy to source; I'm assuimg it must be adjustable and that a gauge fitted would probably be a better option for tuning. On to the fuel pump, your calculations say 144L per hour. Would the Bosch 040 pump be ok for this application? What are the issues with having a fuel pump that is too big? 3) I will be getting the split front/dump pipe from BATMBL soon as well as a hi-flow cat. Obviously this will all go in before the turbo so the setup is all good to go. As for cams, I read somewhere that the cams didn't do anything on the R34NEO engine? Or am I mistaken... Porting is an option I am yet to look into, now that you've brought it up, I might take a closer look 4) I've looked for the SITC before, but have failed to come across any! Are you saying that the SAFC + SITC combo would be sufficient for this new turbo upgrade? My tuner is the ex-owner of Haltech and I've started looking into their line of ECUs, maybe this could be the go as it'll work out being the same cost anyway. Furthermore, having one ECU unit will be easier to tune than having two. 5) Max power perhaps was the wrong words to use, just something that feels like I haven't blown a few thousand on without results... stability and reliability are the keywords here. Definitely don't want something that blows up in my face Anyways, thanks for your input, I'll be sure to talk to a few people and tell them your opinion!

Hi all, I'm looking at a turbo upgrade within the next 1 to 2 months and have begun doing some research, pricing and evaluations of the project as a whole. The car is a 98 R34 GTT with Tiptronic Automatic transmission. As many know, the stock ECU for the auto is a problem for the GTT as it cannot be replaced with something like say a Power FC; as such a "bandaid" solution is required to get this new setup working. Current Modifications: * 3" Exhaust * Front Mount Intercooler * Apexi Power Intake * Manual Boost Controller (soon to be EBC) * SAFC2 The plan is to upgrade the standard turbo to one rated around 400HP. New fuel pump and fuel pressure regulator will be used as well. The turbo is capable of going to 20psi + but I don't think I'll be boosting it anywhere near that mark. The question is; once this is installed and say set to 14-15psi, will the SAFC2 be sufficient in tuning it for normal running with the occasional "spirited" driving? In theorey, if I set it to a lower boost the fuel system should still be able to cope as I've compensated with the bigger fuel pump and FPR. I would go larger injectors, say 480cc but that would require a new ECU to control it. Until I find a reliable and effective way of changing the ECU system this will be a later upgrade. Car runs at 10psi now without any dramas, just want to know your opinions on this new turbo upgrade and whether 1) it will work with my intended quick-fix and 2) whether it will be stable throughout the entire RPM range. Thanks in advance for reading this and giving any opinions/ideas. Much appreciated! Stan

Maybe they swap you a GTR they have out the back

Spotted ecl (or his brother) roaring up the express way from North Sydney when going home on bus 5:30 - 5:45 pm Better not be my wheels + tyres Eric Car looks hot now, well done on the bodykit!

Let me be the first to say that this car is AWESOME! I've been cruising with Rukus heaps and have personally seen the potential out of this thing The fun doesn't stop there... if you think this thing is fast from the outside, just wait until you're INSIDE! Power means nothing if you can't stop, and this thing STOPS! So the best of both worlds, power to burn, brakes to keep you alive! Good luck with the sale Ruk, I am saddened to see it go

Oh the memorie Goodbye DRFTD ~

OZ GTR02V and NYL83R copies of SNS DVD sent out today Thanks guys; hope you get them before Friday! Also - Chris you have PM

Thanks darK Below are some of the stills from the video I took on Friday night, as stated, weather was crap all weekend so much of it came out rather poorly. About the angles though, you can pretty much get any type of angle depending on where you mount this thing. I put it in the top left corner of the windscreen to get this angle - it was just the most convenient place for me that night.

Yeah I spotted you too Danny.... I was the one who said, hey isn't that Danny's car

Spotted 1 silver 32, and a blue 32 at Beacon Hill McDees today whilst getting lunch

OMG WHAT HAVE I DONE Definitely got to make a note of this "grand" achievement somewhere Beer Baron: How farkin' slow was that cabby going eh? I ended up getting the shits as you may have seen Flip: The front lip was from CarMate... $280 me thinks, not including spraying and fitting/modifying to fit

Could someone please close this thread before it turns into another slag-fest!

OK here's an update... Been trying to test this thing in full over the weekend but the weather has been completely screwed up!!! All the footage is clear for like 15minutes, then comes up all blocked by rain/fog I've discovered how you make the head a "quick" release... you put the support stand in before the mounting head Still a bit tricky but saves the 15minutes required to set everything up again. Putting it simply, cost price is $165.00 incl. GST - obviously my uncle is not going to do that for everyone so I guess the lowest people can get them for is $175.00 (small charge for processing, ordering etc.) If people want them, just let me know... I'll organize a pay-per-unit thing if you want them, it'll be $175.00 (pickup) Happy Days... Original post changed!

I made two as well... car made one, and I personally made one

Yeah got most if not ALL of it on film... there were some issues with it though being the first time I've used it Nevertheless, will edit and upload for general distribution; not going the whole DVD thing for this one!

Yes peeps... told you cruise whore was cruise daddy Nah, was just pimping at Liz's waiting to go to a party

Great info darK! OK people, testing has been done from Friday night Great news is that it works perfectly for my Sony Mini DV camcorder. As darK has said, this is way more suited for small camcorders (mini DV) as it is obviously smaller and more light weight! Only problems so far (more like bitches) 1) The mounting head is not a quick release 2) The angle from the mount needs to be finely adjusted BEFORE you drive/film. * Quick release would be good so you can take the camera out without having to unscrew everything

Couldn't resist

Spotted a whole bunch of you whores all over the joint tonight

Yes, left the other car at home had to make do with Mum's car Great night, pity about the weather and one or two little "incidents"... generally good all round Lingeringsoul: I knew I shouldn't have agreed to that photo! Highlights;[/b 1) Jeff's Petrol Stop 2) Turbo Feroza 3) Audi prang... LOL at the sideskirts 4) Skyline Joy Rides for 14/15 y.o. girls 5) Seeing Sambo at work Well that's it from me... happy boostin' but not too hard, saw one big accident at St Leonards

SOFT! nate33t this is the 2nd cruise you've piked on

Sorry mate, only just got it during my lunch break today... first test run will be tonight on the cruise I've asked around and there are guys who mount these on during their runs around Wakefield - it seems to be dead steady. The most "unstable" bit of the unit is the mounting head I would have thought, but they have designed it in 3 pieces with clamps and spring screws - the thing is solid as a rock! *above statements made whilst mounted on desk* Real testing in 4 hours

Hi all, As some of you may know, my uncle owns a camera shop in Sydney and is able to get a lot of goods at supplier/cost price. I have recently purchased a Manfrotto 241v camera mount from them and thought a few others here may be interested. Basically, the photo above speaks for itself. You'll be able to mount this both inside and outside your of your 'line and either snap/film while you are driving (filming is the goal in my case). Personally, my chosen mounting position/s will be from the windscreen and driver/passenger door. The position shown in the photo is probably not recommended on your Skyline (even with the support leg in place) Being Manfrotto, quality is assured... the entire unit is made in Italy using really good materials~ Suction is strong enough to lift an office desk complete with PC and Folders Straight from Manfrotto Website: Attaches to most non-porous surfaces. Ideal camera support in automobile or next to a window. Weight 1.5000 kg Load capacity 3.0000 kg * By load they mean the actual camera mass and not the load that can be applied to the suction cup * Group Buy Details Start Date: 06/01/2006 Finish Date: 06/02/2006 Normal RRP: $200.00 ~ $225.00 (depending on shop) Group Buy Price: $175.00 per unit including GST Payment: Payment will be required before the end of this group buy to secure your Manfrotto 241v; this is simply because my uncle does not stock these usually and has to order them in. Payment method will be via Direct Deposit into my Commonwealth Bank account. Delivery/Pickup Local Pickup is available Mon-Sat from my uncle's shop... buyers will be issued with an official document to prove your purhase so you don't look like an idiot when you walk in there Delivery interstate can be organized as well, not sure of the pricing for normal registered/express (estimating around $20-$25) Please note that other Manfrotto accessories / attachments can be sourced as well - if you wish to get it all together; please PM me or post it up here. Questions or interest, please post up here of PM me.

SWEET NEWS!!!! Just picked up my camera mount for in-car and out-o-car filming Thing sucks like a whore picked up my office desk with it Anyways, who's up for some "spirited" driving
