someone from the rexnet forum was in japan and took some shots. Extremely clear. Really highlights how nice this car looks.

Isnt it funny how a lot of us skyline owners are bagging the look of the new GTR where on a Rex forum they love it specially compared to the new rexy (although some may argue thats not that hard given the 'hatch' like design of the new rexy) but the more pics i see of the new GTR the more i love it, anyone seen any high res pics in black??

yeh white and black look porn

That new rex looks like a kia rio. I think they've made a big mistake with this one. The people that liked the previous WRX wont want to drive a car that looks like their mum's hatchback, and the people that would want to buy a little hatchback wouldn't be paying that much and wouldn't go near a WRX...so that leaves their potential market with the die-hard subie fans that will buy it no matter what it looks like.

The lancer Evo X isn't much better IMO. The front looks very similar to an R34 GTR except that they've coloured it different to make the grill look different. Not saying they copied it, just that it looks good BECAUSE its a design that has looked good on other cars.

The rear of the Evo looks like a cheap honda though. just my opinion but I think they could have done a lot better with the styling of the rear.

On the whole though I'd definitely pick the lancer over the wrx. The front just looks mean. ;)

I think both WRX Sti and Evo are actually SLOWER than the previous models, although they'd hopefully be more economical. Still, would the buyers of these cars really care if it were the other way around (ie. faster & use more fuel)? I reckon it'll just push the prices of the previous models up a bit as people rush to buy the last good Evo/Sti.

Here's hoping the new GTR will bring R34GTR prices down so we can all afford one of those... (apologies to those who own one now...i'm just jealous) :(

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
