whilst playing with coilpacks etc, i noticed that r34's have 2 butterflies? 1 in the throttle body, obviously, but one that remains open, that sits (looking top down) just right of the TB. what controls that?

anyone know who sells a cheapish front/dump pipe combo ?

need one today for under $200 locally !!!

hey Mitch, ring around, wreckers dude. bound to find something

if you really get stuck, i have a stock dump you can take off my hands for next to nothing, and you'll just need to source a front pipe to match.

i wish :P cant afford an evo, i would <3 a evo5 stripped/caged

got around 15k for a weekend/track car (obviously change from that is prefferable but you get what you pay for) motorkahna/hillclimb/grip are my main goals, the odd skid day wouldnt be frowned upon

R33 is pretty decent bang for buck, you can pick up one with some fairly decent mods for around the 15k mark. you can shove wide tyres on the rear for traction, throw in some adjustable arms, front sway bar, front and rear strut braces, half cage if you want to.

id stab myself in the neck before buying a 33, as cheap as they are now..... still would stab neck.

been lookin at:

32

s13

s14

180

id prefer one already set up for track use (built cars before, cbf doing it right now) so if possible cage/rims/tyres/few mods. ive been lurkin carsales/ns.com & here, found a few possibilities.

edit** if i cant find a worthy candidate from the import world ive got a mate who will sell me a modded sr20det with x-member and gearbox mounts to suit a mk2 escort..... a very tempting option

Note to self:

Sell black Stagea

Buy black Porsche

Drive Porsche thru city looking for imports to challenge (Stagea in this case)

Proceed to speed past at 80kph passing cops in the city in a 50kph zone

Watch in rear mirror as cops ignore Porsche and suss out speed limit obeying Stagea

:P

FAIL

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
