Thanks Howie... I decided on Saturday night that there would not be anymore spending on the '34 until 2009... should give you some time to catch up :ninja: 2009 looks pretty tame from where I'm sitting though: brakes, wheels, tints, and some paintwork...

Can anyone post some nice clean shots of the origional R34 subframes? I seem to remember there were some very nice high resolution photo's floating around of a R34 GTR drivetrain sitting in a showroom (complete with tyres etc), I need to cad up the stock suspension for a project and getting high resolution photo's of the subframes with everything in them un-racespecced is proving hard, all else fails if anyone has some high resolution photo's of the subframes themselves (must be the GTR frames) that would also be awesome.

OK, rushed out after work to get a couple of photos... excuse the shoddy photo work :P

Thanks for lookin'

Is that a bulge in your bonnet Stan or are you just happy to see me?

Ganador mirrors look sick too mate :yes: I want em bad.

Hehe... you're lucky I live just up the road else I wouldn't have been assed to drive out after work :P

Still need to sort that "bulge" out, it's a dead giveaway that there's something big hiding in the bay :yes:

ohh i like it nice touch was that ur idea? (black part-never seen it done before). should be able to custom fit a bonnet depending on what u like, cant go somethin too over the top with aggressive styles, then u might need to get a kit for the rest of the car..hmm i duno see if u can get anyone to do some photoshop work for ya and u can get a better idea.

i want ur engine btw looks sexy and dangerous. peace!

Never been a fan of OTT kits... so yes, the new bonnet (whatever it will be) will be subtle and functional. Thinking about just getting an OEM copy bonnet in CF or FRP, take it to a body shop, have them cut the entire middle section out and mould in a higher centre "rise" to clear the engine.

Mould in a NACA duct above the high mount turbo / dump pipe area and we're done :)

PS: thanks for the kind words all, feel free to check out some of my videos on Youtube... another update will be added there after Wednesday's efforts at the dyno room.

thats tops bakes... yeh except for the chick.. a) i cant believe you let her near it.. and b) she really doesnt do anything for the photo... your car doesnt need add ons.

top work.

my gf is right into photography.. might have to team up when my 32 is photographable and find some good spots around newy.. shes got a really good camera and loves taking those fancy atrsy photos. i found one spot on monday night that is really good, had too much traffic though to pull up and look at the lighting conditions, etc.

lols looks awesome satanic. i reckon the bonnet looks good like that. raised bonnet, track look. reduce heat by releasing it out.

anyways muck around with the coils yesterday just to see how stupidly they can possibly go. rears dont sit much lower than my nismo's, a finger gap on 18's. but the fronts are current on half in these pics. pretty weird design allowing fronts to be at that height with only halfway, and rears not being low at all on full.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
