hmmmm , nope havent got a clue. You keen on a kit like that are you?

Yeah i'am keen on the front bar, i was going to get a different kit until i seen this one online it looks great, it flows with the car shape nicely. The orange paint work also looks great, but i'am after the kit.pm me if anyone knows what it is as i'am going to keep looking as i have not found it yet.

i would recomend palmwoods smash repairs guy there called wayne top bloke i couldnt not recomend him... top work for the amount he charges :teehee:

yea my mate has gone through him plenty of times and always comes out happy, its not perfect but deffintaly worth the money he charges.

soon ill be getting a full respray not sure if the same colour but would be good to source someone that can do a good cheap job :sweat: hard to find i guess...

You get what you pay for...

speaking of getting what you pay for i just got a quote for a JimBerry clutch :/ Gotta save for an extra couple of weeks but should be awesome. Gonna get Marty to install.

yeah i got NPC clutch its good, havent had any problems with it yet but still running standard boost, its held up fine though for a 5 puck ceramic, a bit hard to get used to at first but after a while its great. im sure itll handle a bit of punishment once i mod it. payed around same for fitment. clutch was like $550 from memory.

if any 1 is looken for a job.... mechanic wise... guy i know is looken for some 1 willin to lern... >>>> 2nd-3rd year mechanic prefered << a bonus and will teach how to fit exhorst's

its nambour area

I didnt think a clutch would cost that much to fit. they only take about 3 hours. sometimes less.

Marty's doin it. hes gotta take out the clutch, send to brissy (freight charges involved) for JBC to build new one, machine flywheel, etc. then put it back in when it comes back up. Marty's hourly rate is pretty good too $70/hour i think. If it takes him less time than he quotes he wont charge it, same if it takes him longer. I don't mind payin when I know its going to be done right.

Yeah got a quote for $816 for an NPC thats why i went with the JB coz its pretty much the same $$$

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