Guys,

This is probably a weird request but just on the off chance someone with an R34 4 door can lend me their bootlid for a couple of days.

Reason is, my current bootlid has a rust spot inside which is getting bigger and needs to be cut out and rewelded. Have already got a quote and estimate time to do it is 3 working days as the whole bootlid will need to be resprayed and I will be removing my wing and getting the holes welded up as well.

My dillema is, I only have one car now as the S13 has been sold and the 34 is my work car. I can drop my bootlid off to be fixed but won't be able to drive around bootlidless :thumbsup:

So if anyone out there has their 34 sitting in their garage as a weekend warrior and you don't mind lending me ur bootlid, let me know. Will work out an agreed form of compensation to you :)

Cheers,

Jon

are you sure coupes and sedans have different bootlids jon?

actually, i could help you out depending on when your looking at getting bootlid surgery as long as you can put up with having a silver bootlid on your white car.

PM me and we'll talk somemore if you like

Thanks Reg! Will be in contact soon. And yes, the coupes and sedans definately have a different bootlid.

Jon, the simple answer is drive without the bootlid. Less weight means more powah!!!!! :sorcerer:

Can I ask where the rust hole is? Also what are you doing with the wing?

Thanks guys, I have had a few fellow 34 owners offer to lend me the bootlid, however after a bit more thought, I've decided to put this plan on hold for the meantime..too much stuffing around. The rust spot is on the inside lower corner (I'll post pics up later) Its about the size of a dollar coin and its starting to show on the outside with a few pin sized bubbles.

Smurf80: If and when I remove the wing will look at selling it most likely.

Thanks for all the offers! :(

how much was ur quote on ur bootlid to be resprayed ?

coz mine has a rust too :P

Quote was $400 from Cameron's bodyworks. That includes, cutting out the rust, rewelding, also removing wing and welding up holes and respraying the whole bootlid in factory 3 layer pearl (QT1).

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
