hey everyone u may remember me as having an r34 4 door non turbo...... with the big f**k off blue stereo in the boot (see attached files) well due to lack of a snail sitting in my engine bay i have sole this particular vehicle ($20000) and gone and bought myself an R33 GTST with full nismo GTR kit 19" ROH DRIFT R rims and APEXI cat back stainless exhaust, also featuring tein super street coilover suspension with EDFC (around $2700)... i saw it sitting in the yard fresh off the boat fell instantly in love lol, i walked in and said ill take it...... took it for a run and instantly felt the difference in power and handling. (the salesman flicked the ass end sideways when we pulled out of the yard lol..... just put a FMIC from justjap on over the weekend and again pushed the performance up another level and sounds insane also just waiting for my stereo to be installed and once its all in will be getting more mods including bigger turbo, ecu, blow off boost controller and all the usual mods here are some pics attached let me know what y'all think (also attached are some pix of the old 34 just to jog ya memory)

heavy or not those rims still have trouble sticking too the road many a time i have just tramped it and ass end slides out and leaves a trail of smoke that would make a rev head proud...... lol. and as far as the badges go i cbf taking them off...... and i dont run ppl for the exact reason that they may beat me no real point running ppl when u know its still a stocker and u dont have the power behind u to beat a worked vehicle..... also i dont need to prove anything to anyone about whether its quick or not its my car im happy with it the way it is and if ppl wanna cry about my badges i just tell the truth it came from japan like that so i dont care lol.... but i am spewing about the rims as well it had on it originally 5zigen 18in lightweight racing rims on it...they were f**kin sexy but it just came off the boat and the yard wasnt selling them with the car so unfortunately i ended up with these rims..... they not bad but would have preferred the 5zigens...... the car looks the goods im happy with it

    • I might just check it out.. A Q among all those skylines.. lol
    • Time will tell, they're doing all the admin stuff at the moment. I've submitted all the required details, photos, etc.   I was under the impression that DC coupling is the best approach, i.e.: Solar Array -> Battery Invertor -> Battery  Where as AC Coupling is simpler, however less efficient, i.e.: Solar Array -> Solar Invertor -> Battery Invertor -> Battery
    • The price is really great for that kind of capacity. I thought similar setups cost way more. How's your efficiency been with the DC-coupling? I've heard sometimes there can be a bit of a performance loss.
    • Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.    
    • In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.
