Back to the exhaust talk and pics for a sec a few weeks back...

Got to exprience the car as a passenger in the rear seats, as a driver the exhaust seems to be just loud and it just hums in your ear.

I always thought it would be a killer for the rear passengers.

Sat at the back today while i let someone else try and it was normal, it was fine :nyaanyaa:

As long as i can bare with the exhaust, i don't care anymore :cheers: woohoo!

Oh, and for the first time today the rear right wheel i heard scrub going around a corner. But there were 3 people in the rear.

BTW! nice cars to everyone above.

The R34 with Meisters looks nice. The front looks of too much white. The 2 bottom lips would look better black. (IMO). My lip is and the front diffuser when i find it will remain black aswell.

nice looking car you have there grant. If you dont mind me asking, how much were those rims, they look amazing on the car. (my r34 is about as low as yours now :) )

just off the topic, i do like the look of no wing from the front and side, but i dont think i liek the look from the ass

Pm'ed on the wheels dude

Cheers for the comment aswell, as Basti said, it needs a deeper rear bar and the side skirts to complete the look. If you take spoilers off, usually you have to ad something down low so the the rear doesnt look so small.

Nismo skirts for the side and the Nismo S tune rear bar and my car will suit the no spoiler look alot more im hoping. oh and as usual it looks alot better in real life then in the pics. R34s look so boxy in pics, but i think you have to see them in real life to notice they are not so basic in design ;)

Me and mate were chilling at his place and he had these 20s (20 x 9) lying around so we decided to chuck em on the 34 to see if it will fit.

Despite having rolled guards and such, they fit under the guards, but the rear bar will be hit if the shocks compress ie. speed hump or such.

Now I am planning on getting some similar wheels the same size, just not as wide this weekend - I think 8s should fit without posing threat to snapping the rear bar.

Looks super fat though on the dirty dirty black car...

Those 20's look great :D

quick question, which rims would be best on my 34. the imagines i have got -

or these:

mmm... both nice, but I think I prefer the ones pictured on your car.

They also look a little less common than the other ones.

i couldn't be bothered making a new thread to ask, and i figured majority of veiwers in this thread actually own R34s, just wondering, when u brake, ((when the lights are off) how many rear taillights come on, and which ones.

i saw a r34 the other day and he had the opposite taillights to me working when braking :D

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
