Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

was in the same situation you are a few months back, thought about going cheap king springs & shocks, but ended up waiting for a few more weeks, and sacrificing a little.

and ended up getting HKS adjustable coilovers and they were well worth the wait, makes a huge difference.

Plus second hand coilovers aren't that expensive these days, seen sets for like $800.

only 12 spots left in the SAU AFL Fantasy Footy league! see sig.

also, any (decent) offers for my wheels?

You'll never sell those rims... you may as well get a metal saw and cut them into bits so u can see as 'Genuine DamoR34 paperweights, limited edition vpec 3'

Damo have you tried selling those wheels in the main for sale section

also have the price a bit lower i guess.....coz you can get those Doriftotecks for like $1400 for 18's

just a suggestions

loose $200 or so bucks to get rid of those wheels i think is worthwhile

or another suggestion is wrap them in semi slicks for some mad track days

Do R34 skylines have factory immobilizers?

How do you know if your alarm complies with AS406??

Trying to answer stupid insurance questions!........

Stupid indeed, who asked you that, all the times i've asked they just wanted to know if i had an alarm, not if it complies with AS406 etc..

lol, conversation with JustCar

"how can i help you?"

"oh i installed an alarm in my car, just wanted to update you guys"

"yep thats fine, anything else?"

That's not what happened with me.

They didn't care at all about an alarm, they wanted and I mean mandatory a black wired 2 point (at least) immobiliser. So I had to have removed an alarm/immobilisor I had put in the car a week earlier that did not comply and have another installed that did comply.

Threw $380 down the toilet because I didn't do my homework in regards to Aus standards and what just car insurance required

ahh ok i did mine over the phone, r34 i suppose it would say on the alarm/immobilizer unit itself AS406, but since it's from japan, which i believe they did have a factory immobilizer, probably not.

Just tick yes lol, and upgrade to an aftermarket alarm from like Tisonics etc

      Just as a thought, if it's in neutral, thats your drive line disconnect, not the clutch. Clutch slip at the dyno with pedal fully out, is actually adding a second disconnect. So it's not a clutch issue if you're in neutral. Just a bit of friction dragging the output around while in the air.

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The HG high flow is excellent, and costs about the $$ you're talking about. But it, and probably every other highflow, uses a diffeent core than the original turo, and the original Hitatchi core is quite long. So, I think it is inevitable that there is likely no such thing as a highflow that just "bolts on" with no other effort required. And the same is likely true for HG's outright replacement "bolt on" turbos (the ATR things). And the same is likely true for anything similar from elsewhere. I have no idea if the cheap Chinese/Taiwanese complete turbos from eBay/Temu/etc are as bolt on as they claim. I mean, they claim the bolt onto the NAs as well as the turbos, and we know that can't be "bolt on". But it wouldn't matter because I'm not buying a $169 4 psi turbo for anything other than a paddock basher.

      Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD?

      Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.

      So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
