20k damn! from a buyers perspective that may be bout right but from a sellers point of view that wants to make me cry.

like you say, the import market is at an all time low. id hate to think what price id have to sell mine for, but im just gonna bite the bullet and keep it for a long time. its good to maintain that mentallity, then you dont need to think about it at all. but if you want something else, then you really got to cut your losses and go for it

r33 sam. dont think 4wd car drift although i have seen footage of ones that have. must have pulled out plug that puts them into rwd mode.

ah, i missed the drifting part. they use a torque adjuster or something like that in GTRs to set ratio of front and rear wheel drive. 260RWKW, would be more than enough to drift, they say 150KW is about enough to drift a 180 nicely

ben has 165 odd rwkw's in his sil80. that drifts nicely although they are lighter power to weight ratio.

funny thing is Sil80 weighs 1200kg and R33 weighs 1370, maybe you should do your weight reduction experiment that you were gonna do

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
