well the tips are around 3-4k cheaper and less likely to have a shagged clutch or box.. replacement R34 boxes are 1500+

last time i checked.. mans wer 27k autos wer around 24k.. thats when we pick up ours :thumbsup:

they should be around 20k.. if i only had 20k ill get the tip... but if it wasnt an issue ill go the manual :D

yea i know, but if something needs fixing itll get done straight away. i been lookin on carsales, seen some beautiful manuals for only 23K, i dont mind spending that at all. they are pretty stock, but i would rather get a stock one and get the satisfaction of doing it up myself. id be going through private seller btw, dealers are just way too expensive.

autos are for lazy bastards who cant change gears for shit :cool: all jokes aside i just wouldnt mind a 34 gtt at all, but im a tight arse.

I thoroughly enjoy driving manual cars. I find them very responsive and like the feeling of having total control. R33Cruisers car was a pleasure to drive and has a very nice clutch system, very tough running gear i must say.

Can't really agree about the lazy part. Some of us just cant afford the gap of 4-7 Grand... Which in todies society is quite acceptable. Either way, its about enjoying what you have and respecting your right to use the road. I quite enjoy my Skyline, regardless of transmission. :wub:

Any plans for this weekend? Thinking i might wash my car. (hasnt been washed for over 8 days!!!!!)

Cheers

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By Duncan · Posted

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By CF.Panda · Posted

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
