luck, boy did we need some. a mad scramble to get car ready, and i know well that its the worst way to prepare for an event.

Saturday we had the car wheel aligned and made all the tin-work. Monday night we fitted the tin-work, made gear shifter and mounted handbrake lever, also made and fitted rear lexcen window.

tuesday organised fuel and some minor stuff and then took it too dyno. All looking good at this point.

When atempting to tune found that ECU was locked accidently and can only be unlocked by the persons software who locked it. After a few hours of trying to get around this problem we were left with no option but too leave it, get the ECU unlocked in the morning and then bring the car back up to tune.

After getting home at 1 and back up at 630 for the past 3 days i was shot. So up to sydney we drive again and have the car on the dyno by 9. after 8 hours of tuning and software downloads etc etc we got the car to run at about 80%. We called it a day at 6pm. 7 hours late for my track day lol. But more than happy as Yavus from Unigroup after hours of stuffing around with the HP tuner software broke its back and made real progress with the tune.

The car was making 302Kw @ 7000rpm at the tyres when we finished. He thinks its got a little bit left in it and some fine tuning to finish.

The car sounded strong in the end and was crazy to drive as i got to give it a skid in the car-park.

Huge thanks to The boys at Unigroup for a massive effort, as well as my brother and brother in-law who

travelled up and down with me. Also Ian for sticking around and helping out on tuesday night.

hope to have the tune finished in the next 2 weeks in order for the SAU track day.

Good luck today Stu!

Hope all goes well.

nice one mate. nothing ever goes perfectly but those problems are only minor. and one missed trackday is no biggie.

mmm 300 @ 7 will be some serious fun. what are the ratios like in the box that's behind it?

Hey Stuart is the rumour correct that you are chasing more killer wasps so that Bumble Bee will behave like a real "sprint car" and lift the front wheels off the ground under acceleration?

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.

      Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
