It's Jesus, lol.

I was faced with the same options but without dumping a whopping great V8 in my Nova ... buy the Skyline dude, if you live at home you'll always have a free hot meal and most of the living expenses are paid for. At least until you get a well paying job or pay off the car.

I'm actually looking to move out myself now that I have a decent paying job .. I can finally afford both =P

jesus never had a dad, what would he know about bonding with your old man while putting in a chev engine into your R32.

drop the 358... be different (and it'll be cheaper than moving out).

thats a really good point

thanks for the comments guys, just found out the place i was looking at and very keen on does not offer any car parks for any of its 500 residence, which is well f**ked for want of a better word.

however, the moving out is not off the table i just got to sort my shit out i guess.

Man, if you live at your home maybe. Live at my home its 15% (used to be 20% until the Ps paid off the house) of take home pay is board, and I have to cook tea at least 4 nites a week. Amoung other things.

You guys have it way too easy.

u think they have it easy.. all my mates are being given ther cars.. 16k yaris, 20k rollas and my bro got a 25k GTT.. and i worked my lil ass off for a 13k GTiR and sold for 15k :)

new gen have it sweet as..

My brother put in a carby chev into his 33 and it was a big mistake as so many things didnt fit and had to be custom made and cost over 20k (that did include a few other things)without it being complete yet. Its not the basic engine swap ppl think it is

Um just something to look into... im not sure exactly on the rules nowdays its been a long time since ive bothered looking.. But im pretty sure u cant put an engine in a car that wont meet at least its production years emission standards.

basic?!?!?! who said it was basic.....the amount of mod plates you need is crazy, and i am surprise he got away with it for 20k.

Keep looking, don't settle for somewhere you're not happy with :) When I used to rent we'd look for ages to make sure we got places with lock-up car parking.
You dont want to be living at home forever like mark
:laugh:

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
