I'm subscribed to autospeed.com (online mag), some very good articles in it, and without doubt more to come. Other than that I also get Option mags from japan via subscription.

I also buy HPI mags every month, just coz sometimes there's dull issues which aren't worth buying, and also because then I get to choose which bonus mag I want (usually at my local newsagent there's about 4 combinations of current isses and bonus mags). Although in the last 3 years I think I've only skipped about 6 issues (which I eventually got as bonus issues lol)

HPI, the occasional wheels, shame about Speed tho, it was a good magazine.

What ever replaced Speed, I think was 2dmax or shit like that was definitely not worth the 10 minutes of my life.

Also read the occasional autosalon but just way to much bling for my taste and Hot4s is something I just ingore full stop.

My fav is definitely HPI.

I buy both Wheels and Motor every month, but I haven't currently got a subscription (have had so in the past).  Best magazines on the market :(.

...I'm subscribed to autospeed.com...

Oh yeah, I get autospeed too, forgot aboot that! :lol:

Speed was the goods :)

Buy every issue of DB and HPI front Newsagent. Have always been quality.. Offload the free ones to mates.

Also ZOOM is good.. especially for tech

Used to get fast fours till I realized it was full of shit

Autosalon is also a waste of tree's

    • I'd be worried about having to parallel park a boat like that. Magnificent car though.
    • This car has run before on this z32 ecu can get the part number for you, I have tried with no AFM it didn’t change anything, I compression tested today 140-150 across all 6 cylinders, also set fuel pressure to 43psi. The only weird thing was cylinder 1 plug was black and fouled other 5 cylinders were just wet with fuel. Spun cas by hand and confirmed injectors are clicking 
    • Since you came here to ask for help, have you thought about answering our questions, that might help us lead you to why it was skipping, or have you given up on getting advice?
    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
