Hi everyone,,
Well its time to find a new home for my much loved afro-mobile,,
It’s an off-road go-kart which will be suited to large paddocks etc.
Its basically stock standard , besides the following mods ,, :wassup:
Suzuki GT-250 Motorbike engine,
2-Stroke
Twin Cylinder – Twin Carbi engine
Twin exhausts,,
Hydraulic disc brake on the rear axle
Engine has its own oil tank which means no pre-mixing of fuel and oil is required.
Four point harness
Fully padded roll-cage
“6” Speed gearbox – (just like a R34 GTR, hehe) :bahaha:
It does about 80 to 90km/hr
But can go faster if larger diameter wheels are used or gearing is changed.
Do doubt I had to add a touch of Nissan in there somewhere,, so its got a Nissan silva seat,,,
Would like to see it go to a good home,,
Priced to sell a.s.a.p
$900 ono (will consider all reasonable offers)
Prefer Brisbane buyers (might be a little bit too big to send through the post)

ya its really annoying having the dark coloured engine bay,, you wouldn't believe how many times i've had to say "the car was NOT black before!, the engine bay is Meant to be black!"
lots of people think that the car has been re-sprayed blue....
have u compared ur car against a series I?? is there any difference in performance? (acceleration/power etc etc)?
-
The Series II’s also have a different turbo, Garret with metal compressor and steel turbine. Boost is set at about 900kpa and I believe the ECU is different as well.
Instruments have silver faces that light up orange, oil press and boost read in kpa vice kg/cm.
Center console is painted a bronze color and has the same radio options as the later GT-R. Shift boot is different and the shifter has about 10% shorter throws.
A good upgrade for Series I GT-t’s is to put a Series II shifter in as it is almost identical to the NISMO one and costs less.
Also the cover for the three gauges in the center has a better finish on it, more like the rest of the dash as does the center vent assy with the hazard button.
The power mirror controls are different as well. And the glove box does not lock.
ummmm
isn't 900kpa like 9bar?? that isn't right,,
on mine , car boosts up till 0.75-0.8 bar approx (10-11psi) (car is stock standard),,
also found out i "used" to have fog lights!!!! but they were removed because a c-west front bar was fitted in japan,!!! doh!!!!
also!!! there was a factory option of "cup holders" at the rear of the center console!! under the ash tray,,,
i don't have an ash tray or cup holders,,, just a plastic cover,, for both... hehe,,,
is ur engine bay bayside blue or is it a really dark navy blue (almost black)??, mine is painted the dark colour, ( so is demon dave's r34) ,, i can't see y nissan didn't just paint the engine bay blue,,,
still,,,,,,, Bayside Blue rules,,

i used to own a series II r33,
had it for 1 yr , thought it was time to upgrade,, so bought r34 gtt
ya,, it drives better,, has more power to start with,
had the new car smell!! loll :wassup:
personally think it looks better than the r33,, when fitted with a nice kit

C-West have a kit for the 34 Bass Junky.
Looks like it extends down to the grill area.
You can just see it here
i've been searching for that c-west air intake,, but can't seem to find out the price to get one to australia,,
but with the radiator guide now,, i don't know if it'll become an overkill,, of even if it'll fit!!,,
-
coz i wanna remove it,,looks like it takes up some of the volume in the lid,,,
so just wanna confirm what its there for exactly,,
-
I can't see any pics of the mods ?!!
also,, umm, u know how under the airbox (inside) lid is a black foam thingy,,
is it a good idea to remove this?? is it there to reduce turbulence or absorb moisture?
does anyone what i'm talking about,,?? if not i can post up some pics,, later on,,,
or if possible can someone email me the pics of the airbox mods
thanks

i have to modify mine alot (c-west front bar),
i started modifying the front bar,, but than decided to hack up the guide,,
so didn't do to much damage to the bar, will show in pics later,,
i'll have to remove the whole front lip of the guide, coz my front grill/mesh wont fit, the front lip of the guide sticks out too far,, once again will post pics later on,,
will update the changes soon,,,
thanks

ya,, the dimensions of the core is 600 X 280 X 80
that means the front of the cooler will need to be atleast 150mm (80 + 65mm pipe) from the air/con fan if the cooler piping is to clear..
i don't think the rotate thing would be a good idea, don't wanna spend any money modifying it if i buy it,, ya i can sorta see how the piping "could" restrict some of the air flow from the cooler,
but i dont think it would be a major disadvantage ( i hope)
man i can't seem to find any info on this sort of cooler piping,, well mr google hasen't been very helpfull yet , :confused:
hoping someone out there has some pics or comments about this cooler,,,
thanks

i was thinking of using 2.5" piping all around,, coz doesn't the engine bay use all 2.5" piping up till the intake manifold? The apexi cooler has 2.5" outlets i think.
or should i use 3" piping from the cooler up till the engine bay?
-
the apexi one is a little diff to that,, the pipe will end up coming right across the air-con fan (will go at an angle from top to bottom),, urs goes just under the fan right? ,,
hey how much did u end up spending on ur cooler?
i've seen only the cooler for sale,, but will have do buy/make up my own piping,,,
can u also give me the dimensions of ur hks cooler please...
did u have to cut/modify ur front bar support to fit the cooler??
thanks heaps dude,,
