Not sure where the RB25DET engine torque figure listed above came from, but it's actually quoted by Nissan as 30.0kgm at 4800rpm - just under 295Nm.

The UK skyline forum and another source..... Nissan

seat of the pants you can feel a huge difference in mid range from S1 R34 and S2 models in the same state of tune , even more so when you add a 270.00 part it improves the car dramatically in the low to mid range punch to make it soooo much better to drive daily

Troy, either we have a simple case of miscommunication, or you've plucked that Nissan claim out of your backside mate. Are we talking about the R33 Series 2 RB25DET producing 319Nm peak torque? If we are, then I will happily stake large sums of money on it that Nissan claim 30.0kgm (just under 295Nm) at 4800rpm for the GTS25t RB25DET engine - the factory Nissan Japan 1997-1998 R33 Skyline GT-R and Skyline model range glossy specifications, options, and accessories catalogues on my desk at work tell me so :)

^^ But Nick, they do expect it to be a girly hairdresser's car - and it delivers :)

Muhahahahahahahahahahaha

j/k mate .... she is a good car :down:

whats going on with this new car of yours mate? been delayed again?

Where do you guys go for cheap (bargain) tyres?

At the moment I'm considering having a pair of Federal 595 SS sent from forum trader Access....

I just got some Federals from Option1Garage. Can't remember what type they are KU71 or something. I was trying to get their street legal semi slick but they didn't have any in stock. Cost me about $350 del for two new tires. Pretty good in my opinion

yeah Nick they replaced the vehicle speed sensors, but it didn't fix the problem - despite the ECU error code being 'vehicle speed sensors'. They are having another look at it Monday.

I am in no hurry to get it - in fact the longer it takes and the more things they fix/replace before I get it, the better for me, and the more time it gives me to sell my car (a guy who is interested is coming to look at it tomorrow). I was dreeading the thought of having 3 cars and only 2 garage spots. Meant I was going to have to put the new one out under the verandah where the R34 lived for the first 6 months of its time in Aus. Not easy then to just take either car to work in for the day depending on my fancy :)

Bah I like missionary though... the giving side of it... not the receiving. Because I'm so generous and all. :down:

Any way to scam the scammer and run off with $7k or so? :)

How about set up a fake Paypal account, get him to transfer the money into that one, once it has cleared, transfer it into your proper paypal account, then into your bank account. Or just tell him to get a bank to write out a personal cheque and send it to you.

What a shit day!

I woke up with a headache. Did some housework. Watched the Crows lose after getting reamed by the umpires in the first half. Decide to go and wash my car and get done by a red light/speed camera on the way to the car wash. I was doing exactly 80kmph in an 80 zone and was well into the intersection before the light went red. F**king $300 odd dollar car wash! How can you contest the bloody tickets without risking an even greater fine?

I should have stayed in bed.

I thought the same thing this morning when i got up for work, but it was alright, i played UT3 all day while drinking Ice Coffee.

215/40 on the front!

yeah but i'd have to run 235's front and rear for the 4WD so the tyres are no good and i wouldn't fit 18x9 +20 in my guards with 235's on them, as im running 18x9 +30 atm.

    • Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
    • There is an ABS pump and a few solenoids. You could trigger the front/rear solenoids with a pressure bleeder attached with a Consult 2. 
    • I love saying Samsonas lol. Maybe it's because I secretly want one, but also don't want to sell a kidney.
    • My budget has already blown way out but I've got most of the big-ticket items out of the way haha I just got the box back from the shop, got them to inspect it and install one of those refresh kits with all new syncros and bearings so should feel much nicer. But yeah if there's a weak point it'll be the gearbox, I'm gonna roll with it for now and hope it holds together. Do have an Xtreme organic sprung twinplate clutch to go in so if/when the box lets go I'll be back open for suggestions haha
    • Dose salivating at the prospect of being able to recommend a gearbox upgrade!
