Yeah THANKS spud, (hope you don't mind the abrieviation),
Only had it 3days and would yu believe that some jealous gronky CU*T has already deep keyed three panels parked at the shopping centre for fu*k sake.
Shit mate this is a lot of car, I am that infatuated, i want another one.
Just wondering which would be the better all round car , ie price , performance, the 2.6o turb'ed manual or the 3.5 natural 6 speed like mine, any opps on that spud. Perhaps one of each, two is better than one they say. Hee hee hee

I love when people say spud haha, 

That would absolutely piss me off if someone keyed my car. 
I'm definitely more of a C34 Stagea guy, remember, when it comes to the Autech RB26 stagea, if something breaks you basically have to uy another gtr. I personally would buy a RS4S (2.5l Turbo Manual) if you want a C34, You could probably build up the RS4S to perform better than the Autech C34 and it may still end up being cheaper. Not really too sure when it comes to the M35 models, but I definitely respect a good looking one.

I'd love to have one of each haha

So its a 2wd manual? That makes it easier to modify if you're so inclined. The latest Link computers can run the 4 camshafts so time for a big single turbo!

I'm pretty sure they're just 6 speed auto, unless someone did a manual swap :D

Yep sweet as 6 speed manual. I think I got a little lucky donut, I mean I really like the only other 6speed the 260s, but everyone has a turb auto right, so if you gonna be different yu got to stand out in the crowd. This is not far off the mark, what yu recon donut .As for upgrades , might look at a chip n cam set, maybe some suspension which is pretty solid anyway, the head unit and thought the 260s wing just to confuse the experts Hertz.
Tell the missus yu can have your cake and eat it too with this little gem.

Good on ya spud. Had a family at school. all three boys we called spud, so it came sort of natural. Well yu sound like yu might know a bit more than a recent convert like myself, so I'll take your word for it on the specs. I'm pretty happy with it stock at the moment, but if I can get my grubby little mits on another low k's one cheap enough I might look some of the stuff yu mention, certainly like to maybe build a bittsa this n bittsa that, using all the best factory bits from across the skyline range, maybe a turn or two might fit that picture. One thing is for sure spud, two in the hand is much better than one in the bush, so yu are spot on, one of each would nothing hurt. All G in the H. Spud

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
