Nice car man congrats :) If i were doing my car over again, as in from stock. I would DEFINATELY get an ecu first. No questions asked. I tried to do it the other way round and learnt the hard way. :) If you do it first, then your car will be so much beeter off in every mod you do and from then on its easy street. :)

nice clean 34. Depending on whether u want to go power or aesthetics first. For the "looks" dept. Below are the basics in order.

1. Wheels

2. Suspension

3. Bodykit (optional)

OH and make sure u have covered the essentials first like full comp insurance and alarm/immobiliser.

Yeh the decision can be tough, been looking at exhausts, don't want bigger than a 3", trying to figure out what would be the best type to go with, short of that, i definatly need to do a stereo upgrade, i love my music,

but the one thing im 100% on is the bodykit, its gonna be the package from DMD, (funnily enough i bought the car from someone who works there) the Bomex Sides and Rear with the Do-Luck front, I've always thought it looked hot, sorry to those who already have it lol

@ MissR34

- That looks nice, did you have the holes in the boot lid filled?

Ii've always thought tht 34's look sweet with out the spoiler, i think ever since seeing the 'MR DMD' R34 with that gorgeous catalunya spalsh

I saw it when i picked up my car, with its Do-Luck front and Bomex sides and Rear, Im gona feel like such a copy cat when i get around to buying the kit... lol

i reckon strip the spoiler as well

Nice car man! :whistling:

I am tossing between stripping the spoiler on my one also.

I've seen a few R34s (all non white), it just didnt look right without the wing....

Umm guess it gives me something to do tomorrow.

Thnks 4 all the comments people -

@ MAYHEM - Yeh im not sure about the spoiler, i too like the spoiler-less look but not sure if i actually like it over having one on there

but man i must say those rims of urs are tight, those are 20's right? I've fallen in love with the black rim/polished lip look, or something of the sort, but i don't think ill go over 19's when i get to that stage lol, love ur ride

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By djr81 · Posted

      Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
