that part is mostly taken care for due to revhead and his old 33 coupe. wife wants to look at a 33 sedan (auto) and possibly drive one. looking for someone here that has one we can look at so she has an idea. the starlet isnt big enough anymore and need somthing that is bigger and I will not see a need to modify.

I'm strongly considering this one:

Yeah 4 doors have some really great advantages, I like the white 4 doors, Auto makes it drivable by all wives... :laugh:

Very nice choice Chris... Also have a look at the tiptronic R34 GTT in the for sale section... Its not bad value either...

jon,

ta! she likes the idea of a 33 after I explained how the whole import thing works. in regard to yours , I may take you up on it. though 33 is all I can really afford (starlet is being sold and I want to do a straight swap cash wise.)

Rb25DET is the one I'm after

when are you available?

mushroom,

ta. can always catch up with SMR33 for that though. need a sedan.

Prego,

yep I know he does.

keep them coming. would like to have this car sorted by the end of next week and underway (pending wife approval..)

That would have been mine?

I'd be happy to let you have a spin in my 34 as well if you wanted. Don't know the difference between the 33's and 34's (cost & driving) though. I would say push for the 34, but $$ wise I'm not sure if it's really worth the headache of convincing the wife to spend the extra.

ben,

it was yours. she doenst know how big the car is in comparison to a local 99 camry. I know a 33 and 34 is bigger she just needs to see it. pref a 33 as thats what I'm looking at.

    • 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 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
