You'll all get a ride sooner or later :) .... I really don't think it's as exciting as you all make out :D .... and she'll be fairly stock, so it will be no PCOTY in terms of performance!

come on, u are asking about high flow turbo in other thread :crazy:

that GCG will pull 265rwkw! :uh-huh:

Sam - nah she is not sold yet - have had a few bites, but still waiting for the right person to come along.

Chapman - I am still throwing around various ideas at the moment - but I promised Carolyn I wouldn't be spending any money on this car. So I have already broken that promise, but I don't intend to spend much more.

I am, however, worried about the fragile nature of the nylon impeller on the R34 turbo -

hence my thoughts about a GCG rebuild/high flow.

Duc - nah not yet - I have other much more important things to spend money on at this stage. Plus, those roof-mounted things are illegal to use while the car is moving - as it supposedly distracts drivers behind you. If/when I do it, they will be 2 headrest mounted screens. I am hoping to put an all-in-one double din LCD screen/TV/DVD/MP3 player in sooner or later - like this one http://www.brashimports.com.au/CA1605.htm - just have to find the money first. I am hoping to come home from Vegas after some nice winnings and it may fund this and other mods. Fingers crossed.

hahah..

Sounds like a few lines I have thrown my other half.

Here's a few. :)

I need a new motor as this one has done quite a few kays and is 13yrs old, if we want to drive interstate we should really have a reliable new motor. :(

I need a PFC as the tune isn't the best and it will stuff the motor up if we drive interstate, it will also return better fuel economy.

I need injectors as they are maxed out and its dangerous for them to be running like that, the current ones are buggered and new ones that flow better will return better fuel economy for the drive interstate.

I need a bigger turbo as this one is running at its max all the time which is going to have it blow soon, if it blows it may damage the motor and we don't want it blowing while driving interstate.

:D

yeah, unfortunately (money-wise) we are shortly going on a month-long holiday to the USA, so money isn't exactly plentiful. But you get that.

Yes, the bill for getting it on the road is climbing and climbing - but now is the best time to play with wheels/disks, exhaust etc, while it is off the road! It will have quite a few toys, you know I can't help myself! But, it's still gonna be stock *cough* *cough*

Hey guys! I got it through the group buy that GR33dy organised, for $940 delivered. It left japan on friday, got to melbourne on monday, adelaide on monday night, and arrived here yesterday, then i picked it up at lunchtime today :D only problem is i have no car to install it in :D

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
