Not a bad list Sean, quite a lot of money for bugger all gain as with any VQ35, and that is why i sold my 350Z was gonna cost too much ....the $ vs HP gain. Full Exhaust, Intake and Flash tune will do wonders for your fuel economy on that engine, and give it a good extra 20-30kw. Need some JDM in ya face deep dish rims would set that car off nicely. I've got a nice set for ya but your will need wide bodykit ;) .

It's already got one. Palmyra. It's been built to suit the majority demographic in Mackay. Sad but true. I remember whan I lived in the area 20 years ago there was talk of one in Gladstone out near

You'd be suprised, there is a few more engine mods i can do to gain more killerwasps like a plenum spacer & better intake.

I'm still on my greens for another 12 months so i can't go crazy, but i think i will sell the car around then or at least throw a Vortech on it i'm really not sure.

I've got the same wheels i was going to sell, i put them on the car and liked them again.

Lol how do you go from hating to liking again crazy. I had a HKS turbo kit for my Zed that was gonna go on, ended up in the too hard basket. Supercharger would be good for a street/everyday car, low down grunt and plenty of torque and 0 lag.

Haha i know it's weird but when i got them out of the box i was like ehhhh not sure i like them.. then i put them on the car and lowered it and i liked them again.

Yeah i have heard impressive gains from Superchargers on these motors with not much work needed to the internals and what-not.

The only turbo/supercharged cars i've ever driven are F6/GT/GT-P's when i worked for Ford but never a built turbod car like a supra or skyline. I can't wait to get on my opens.

Why not Ikeya or cusco etc gear over the PoweredByMax stuff? not the greatest gear you can get, especially when your list has some of the 'bigger' name brands on the go

I had the Full Ikeya Formula Catalog on my R33 GTR don't get me wrong they are good but they just ain't worth the money i'm not forking out 5k + again for suspension arms, my mate down the road makes his own suspension arms and components on his off road buggy i could get him to make me some custom chromoly ones and copy the ikeya arms on the R32 Drag Car but couldn't be bothered i'm gonna give the PBM arms a go have heard plenty of good feedback about them. The car is gonna weight as much as a shopping trolley so i don't have to go overboard with heavy arse gear, the brake package i'm planning on putting on the car is better than the Scorch Racing S15 and that beast has 800rwhp and that thing is insane. I just read the latest Super Street Mag has a article on it... very nice piece of kit i'm gonna draw my inspiration off it.

Haha i have a couple of flat brim hats in the cardboard, the car will be dual purpose Rob just a matter of swapping tires and geometry, just wanna build something crazy and over the top, all my ideas i've wanted to do over the years put into one car.

Big f**k off GT Wing check! Low as f**k check! Massive deep dish wheels check! Sidepipe Titanium Exhaust check! V-mount intercooler/radiator check! Fully stripped out no dash and one seat check! Front splitter and Canards that would decapitate someone Fark yeah check!

Drive it like i stole it and hang the hell on, if it doesn't scare the shit out of me every time i drive it, white knuckling the bastard the whole lap and my arsehole chewing on that Bride seat then i'm afraid i have failed this project lol.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf

      Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.

      Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?

      R34 N/a And R34 Turbo (gtt) Transmission.. Uh, Problem.

      By albyz34gt · Posted

      @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man

      Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
