Make sure you get it surface ground on a magnetic table Shane.

We could do it for you but we are a little bit out of the way.

Thanks heaps for the replys guys!

Just got off the phone with Dan, he can do it for me :D

Cheers for the heads up paul. It only needs to last 6 months or so until i get the rb26/30 in, then i'll be heading to jim for a custom clutch.

I rang Jim today at lunch but i got some other bloke, gave him my details n told him what i needed but he never called me back...

As for the clutch....I can get you whatever clutch you want....any specs you want. Just as good as Jim Berry and probably a fraction of the cost.

See how you go though.

Not trying to start an argument. But that is a BIG BIG call.

It's all good. I know Jim Berry is one of the best. I also know Doug is just as good.

Not saying either is better than the other but I have used clutches made from both on many occasions so I know first hand. It's not like I would bag Jim out or anything, I have massive respect for him....I just prefer to use Doug as he has always looked after me and I know you are the same with Jim.

BTW...what was the big call?

Hmm, I should have phrased better. Jims advice on what to get to suit the application is probably why his are so good. He makes sure you get the right clutch for what you are using it for, then explains why. Jim and SK are the only two people I have ever come across to spend the time and have practical knowledge, to make sure you know what you are spending your money on, and why you are wasting it going down another path. For that even if I could get the EXACT same product cheaper I would still go with Jim just out of courtesy. That and does anyone else do his carbon clutches?

Doug is exactly the same. Only difference is that Doug doesn't bag out Jim but Jim bags out Nick's Clutch Service. Both are very good at what they do...the best in fact. Both are great for info.

And yes...Doug does do the Carbon clutches. I assume you are referring to the ATS style ones?

      Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ?

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
