id put the spoiler back on the rear, change the side mirrors, change the skirts to something a bit more even with the front bar :rofl:

looking nice :rofl:

what you been smoking akeenan :D have u seen the old spoiler?

what you mean Jar, spoiler "ftw"?

bugger, i wouldn't have minded some for half price, if they were the same - yeah, def need 18's.

yeah very similar to GT4's but without the $$$, like $1050 a rim for 18's? or was that $700... something huge... i would love the GT4's from the ZTune (black, shadow chrome, whatever), but too pricey... and i don't think you quite get the effect without them being on a GTR - where as these rims have that inward spoke look already...

yeah apparently $1050 per rim..ridiculous coz i want them too lol

let me know how you go with the bee-r ones in 18"...what prices etc and where from

"ftw" means for the win, and is quite possibly the most annoying and lame abbreviation, used WAY too much on this site...ban it i say

prices on the Bee-Rs in 18s are actually quite reasonable... even after the importer tacks there bit onto it.

When i was looking at importing a set Bee-R had a special on and it worked out to just over 1800 landed.

Nice front bar.

But the whole car looks a bit uneven now, you might need some different skirts or rear bar as it looks very nose heavy.

And putting on 18's will probably not solve your height issue as your 18's will have a very similar rolling diameter to your 17's.

Even up the rest of the car with the front bar, and itll be sweet!

yeah, i'm trying to sus some skirts/rear bars out but haven't heard back as yet... too be honest i wouldn't even know what else is really out there... not a fan of those bomex type skirts/rear bar...

well 18's are going to make it sit a little higher, fill the guards up a bit more, which then means i can lower it down a little back to where it is now (which is ok, don't really scrape if i attack some steep things at an angle)

so the whole combo of a little higher, a little more filling out of guards and then being able to lower it a little should make enough of a difference i'm guessing..

respray it bayside blue... go on... do it!

frontend conversion looks hot as. well done... well if it's had troy's hands on it you can't expect anything else.

i would love to do it TV2... but hmm... dunno... that means engine out... more $$ - i'm grown to like black... looks pretty tough and hasn't been the nightmare cleaning job that some ppl make out

if i was going to do anything different, it would be the Lambo fiery orange/pearl colour with a carbon bonnet... but i'm going to struggle to pay for any respray and i've been told a repsray to the same colour is easier/cheaper? yes no?

no troy won't be doing the respray. I need to metal weld the spoiler holes on the rear quarters, and also the annoying rust spot under the centre brake light that so many 34's have... that's extra, quoted $1500 only just to spray/weld rear quarters and boot (rust spot)... guy said, for another $1500, he'd do the whole car...

well, who's going to hook me up with a good deal for a TV2 then? :D:rofl:

go LX0

or, the champagne metallic on the r34 gtr

Whats everyone going on about bigger wheels filling the gaurds more and giving it more clearence? how does that work? Since when you go up a wheel size you reduce the profile n the tyre to keep the same rolling diamater, which means your car ends up the same height and same gap between the tyre and the guard... you just have more rim and less tyre.........

or am i missing something here?

ps, R34 GTR fronts look so tough!

I'd also be worried about a 3k paintjob... i've never had a full respray but for a proper one they have to remove the windows/lights etc.. which i would of thought would cost a lot more than 3k......

Ahhhhh so that was YOUR car I saw there. Interesting.

Bar is good but you will never be able to lower the car, I saw how low it sat stock, you'd loose it first curb or speed bump you mount!

I saw the work on the bonent, Troy did a good job. Should look good finished.

Nice work Chinny,

I'm with Ferni, bigger wheels will not work for clearance because you are limited by the suspension and guards on your rolling diameter.

Air bag it!

Best of both worlds.

;)

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
