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

I want HIDs..

Anyone got any they wna palm off?

We both buy some and you can do it for me.

You both buy the kits and i'll install them for ya. Easy as to install, did mine on the R33, took me a 2-3 hours to do, but i had no idea what i was doing....now i do :).

Would anyone recommend having the lights realigned since changing to HID's?

hey Matty, amazing how a bit of rubber can bring the tuff look out in a truck........4X4 + highway terrains = ghey!!

definitely.....however all terrains works for towing and daily driving. at least the ATZ 4 rib are a tough looking tyre that performs well without being noisy

i is bored.

Random note, narva is awesome. They make these factory looking dash switches that fit in most standard dash openings. Had to fix up a few things for my spotties (plus preparing for the extra lights im getting in a few weeks), and i bought a few of these (excuse the holes in the dash, have to make a trip to nissan and buy a few blank plates):

Which kit should I go for Abe?

Links? Prices?

Really comes down to how much you want to spend and brand you prefer. I myself went with a Bosch 6000k HID kit from the group buy, pictures here from my car blog - near the bottom of the page. I only went with Bosch as most of there other products are quite good, i went with 6000k as they aren't yellow and aren't too blue (illegal).

Group Buy link with pics. - I believe it has closed, but he may start another one in the next few weeks/months.

Would mine hitting you up soon about that install.. One of my headlights is out at the moment so I kinda want it fixed asap. But I would really love to get HID's.

Anyone know how to get the main headlight globe out of a R32 GTS-t? I can't work it out.

Might be a dumb Q, but is the tank from a non-EFI 31/pintara? I know with most of my previous projects, for ease of engineering and getting Regency approval for SR and CA transplants into a 1600/200B, an anti-surge bowl was grafted into the stock fuel tank. Beats having a swirl pot for the cops to see.

If its a stock non-EFI tank, then the fuel pump may not be adequately picking up the fuel. Its a guess, but my 2c worth.

Maybe also a ventilation issue with pressure in the tank?

as for the hole in the fuel tank, the best way to fix it aside from getting some brave kent to weld it is to use natural flagrance free soap. Scrub it on the hole while there is fuel in there, the soap reacts with the fuel and stops up the hole better than that putty crap u can get from the servo.

i thought it was dubious, but i tried it on the rollas fuel tank and it works a treat. The guy that i got the idea from has been driving around in his ae86 with his tank fixed like that for the last 2 1/2 years :P

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
