now that we have our cars of choice all up and running, should hook up next time you're down in brighton - we can cruise church and hampton st :P j/k

i heard the handling on these cars are just outta this world... plenty of power yet to be untapped too i'm sure...

congrats mate!

shannons came through with the goods for me as well! Said the only reason they gave me insurance for a 34 under 25yr old was cos i was a SAU Member - yet another advantage of being a member peeps! :D

Thanks for all the replies and comments guys. Just took it down to Gippsland for a drive round some tracks and the handling is awesome. Flicked it onto the Gravel setting and the balance is superb. Stuff I used to drive the Lib in and get body roll, this doesnt even flinch.

Certainly will be at DECA although I am not promising any good results!

Need to find an owners manual and get a spare key cut now so will try Mitsubishi first.

Cheers guys :dry:

Awesome looking bit of kit...... :(

Im becoming more & more keen on these cars the more I see of them. Maybe one day.

No Shark fins?? Or were these evo8 onwards or a factory option?

Are these the things in a row that span the width of the roof above the rear window? If so, I think they are 8's onwards and optioned so I dont have them. We saw one with those on at Sandown. James was talking to the guy about them so probably knows more than me on it. :)

I was actually after a 6 until I found this one and am very glad I got this for a few 000 extra and a lot newer with less km's so the look has really grown on me in the past few weeks.

LOL! at pre thrashed! I think all the other test drivers will come out of the woodwork now, damn you SAU hoons!

Hey Darren, long time no speak mate, catch you on MSN next time. I really needed something I could easily clock 20,000-30,000 a year km's in and that I could hang on to for 5 years or so.

Went for a passenger ride in West's mate 6 (sorry forgot your name!) and that was the final ticket really for me to get one.

      Hypergear Turbochargers and High flow Services Development thread

      Lower at the hubs. Funny I forgot to mention that part. Do this pull here I turned the camera off too soon but the graph shows a drop at the top and that was because the pipe from the turbo blew off. The tuner said we could’ve made possibly another 15 whp. He also added if I switched to ethanol we could up the boost some more as well. I was comfortable capping it at the most of 20 pounds. Turns out the turbo pipe just needed a new worm clamp. Got home replaced that then did a third gear pull from 3k to 7200 rpm and the power was great to the top. I just got an ecu mounting bracket from IEE that I need to try and get everything to fit well. It’s a PITA to get the harness and ecu fit properly behind that kick plate

      R34 Manual conversion Speedometer

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      He means "as opposed to mechanical cable drive". Older cars (R32 for ex.) had cable drive. Later cars with essentially the same gearbox, ie R34 GT (NA RB25) used essentially the same box as the R32 GTSt, but instead of a cable drive, had an electronic speed sender plugged into the same hole in the box, running from the same little gear that would have run the cable. Some of the shittier later cars use a speed sender on the nose of the diff, or the ABS sensors.

      Lower than engine, or lower than it should at the hubs? Either way, that is a nice power figure and I'm not surprised you say it rips now. What stopped you from turning it up any more? Injectors? Or did it just stop responding to boost?

      Got my 34 gtt tuned last week. Car made 362 wheel horsepower at 19 psi. Turbo was the ATR43SS. Only other upgrades were haltech 2000 series. 650cc injectors, walbro 250, fmic. Pro hub dyno reads 6% lower than actual figure according to my tuner. Car is a real ripper now.  IMG_7261.mov

      Looking for someone with a R34 front bar

      By DraftySquash · Posted

      Hi everyone, I'm wondering if anyone in Melbourne (preferably West) has a non-S2 R34 front bar. If it's already off the car, even better!  Nothing too weird, I just need to get a cut-out of the hole that the front indicators clip into 🤣 (image attached for reference)   I've got a front bar from JSAI Aero, but those holes need to be cut myself, and I want to get it right so the indicators will clip securely. And my OEM bumper is a S2, so I have no reference. So looking for a member who might be able to spare me a few minutes to make a cardboard cut-out using your front bar.
