hey ruby rs4, luving the black series 2, is that how the car came, with the front bar? is that just a standard nismo one is it? wat about the grill? did you paint it black youself?

the bar is from vivagarage.. how'd it fit roo?

the grill is standard

visited the parents and tested out their new camera. canon sx1. tell you what it takes a nice photo for just point and shoot auto mode, and the HD video is good too. after taking photos, realised camera was not set to "fine" mode. bugger.

No. My S2 originally came with a Dayz bodykit. I since removed it and fitted a Dolphin kit and now I changed the front bar, yet again, for an Aero type M bar from Viva Garage. The grille is standard, I just took the double unicorn off. Got a Viva grille coming.

Altho my S2 came with Nismo badging on it, I'm trying to figure out what makes it so "Nismo" special? It has a Momo wheel, and some chrome handle on the back of the tailgate, Nismo badges, it did have GTR style rims (since replaced with 18"), but I'm still yet to discover any other items. I've seen a "Nismo" special Stag on ebay, but his looks more stock than mine (it doesn't even have Nismo badging). So I reckon mines a proper Nismo stag, but not fully aware of all the Nismo touches I'm sure.

noticed you've changed your front bar ruby, is there some place that makes them or somthing ?

Yep. Viva Garage here in Adelaide :)

roo that bar looks rather Viva garage like? How is the quility of it and was it direct bolt on?

Are you leaving it matte?

I drilled all the required holes myself and it bolted on no problem, altho the indicators took a bit of fiddling to fit.

No, I'll be painting it gloss black, but couldn't get it into the shop before the car show this weekend. So it goes in matt black for now. Didn't want to do a rush job.

:)

I've been thinking about getting the entire Stag resprayed Satin Black. :laugh:

That Viva bar looks great on your car mate and you pic just helped me heaps..

I have a S1 with the same dolphin kit and have been tossing up weither to get a Viva Type M bar or another Monkey Warehouse Nismo bar as mine is cracked to the sh!thouse and your pic just made up my mind :(

i realise this, however he bought a copy locally from viva >_<

I realised that as well, my response was more for BCK34 as he saked what style the bar is.

MIKE have you worked out what re-spray colour your car is?

i'll pm you also, but im pretty certain it is 'athlete silver' (i believe that's kv2?) it came on bnr34's

nice stag bubba, ok peoples so after waiting nearly 2 months i have finally got my new rims on my stag hope yous like, (and if ya dont, TOO BAD i do hahahah)

I've got a nice lip that would fit nicely on that front bar of yours :)

    • Hey guys, Just want some advice on r34 GTT ac system. Since I’ve owned it, the ac compressor, doesn’t matter the set temperature or ambient temperature, runs for around 10 seconds then disengages the clutch, then re-engages everywhere 30 seconds or so and keeps repeating this.    is this normal?   I had it recharged today as it was slightly low and thought it would fix it but still does it. it cools fine in summer even prior to the recharge, except for the usual warmup when stopped or in traffic (still yet to wire overheat fan to on with ac)   any thoughts would be much appreciated 
    • To plug the hole. The engine plant may not have known whether the car it was going into had a gauge or not. It was a long time ago and the integrations might not have been fully modern. Or they might not have cared because the extra inventory and processes to save a few cents on the sender might have cost more anyway. But please tell me you are not still confusing the idea of a pressure gauge sender, and an oil pressure light switch. The switch will be out there. In a separate hole. Probably with only one wire running to it. Running the light.
    • Blower needs to go low on the exhaust side, displacing the AC and PS, which you have to decide whether you want to keep and how and where to relocate if you do. Electric option for PS is, at least, helpful. Sadly, there is no workable 12V electric AC of any value. Whilst the blower is the last compression step before the throttle, and so it might seem a good idea to have it near the inlet manifold (as mentioned above), you probably want it to go through an intercooler first, so, having it on the opposite side of the car facilitates that air flow path. The turbo discharges into the blower, so proximity of the turbo's compressor outlet to the blower's inlet is nice. But then you might want to intercool that too, before boosting it again....which would probably be a ball ache. Routing pipes out to the front and back could be a bit shit. If there was room for (at least) a small (but preferably larger) water to air core on that side, then that would probably be the best approach. I guess a reasonable alternative would be to locate the blower where the alternator is (more or less, associated with the inlet manifold, per Matt's thought), and somehow incorporate a water to air core into the manifold, sort of like they do for modern blown V8s. The big difference here though is that those V8s have only the one throttle (upstream the blower) and only the one compression step (the blower) and no need for too much in the way of bypass/blowoff valves. Whereas in a twin charged 6, you do need to think about one or two bypass valves associated with the 2 compressors and you would prefer to have the intercooling done before the air has to pass through the throttle. You'd like the throttle to work approx the same no matter what the compression is doing. But if it is located in hot air stream before a cooler, then sometimes the air will be real hot, sometimes it will be quite cool, and the throttle mapping/response will be quite different between those two cases. The throttle, if sized for hot air, would be too large for cold conditions. It's all a ball ache.
    • Package SC on exhaust side. Remote mount turbo. Still a fair bit of room when you get creative on the inlet side of the motor too. Especially if you can get really creative with the welding, and effectively build it into the bottom of the inlet manifold. Would definitely take some design work, and some trial and error, to make sure flow works well still! Might be easier to just start with the Nissan March though... All the work is already done for you...
