yeah predator, i was thinking do the paint/body and leave it, sell it

no point putting too much more into it, but if i do ill be keeping the car for another couple of years

but id much prefer a better platform or more so, not lose too much money when selling the R33

the bonnet if u looked closely was pretty shocking, i had these weird stains on it that were under the gloss and under fluro light u can see some shocking shades :S

Well as far as my mods go I'm picking up my C's short shift kit tomorrow....

Then in a couple months time go PowerFC + hand controller + boost control kit... already used to the current power....

err..yes jet.. you will have the fastest.

as long as you don't throw a piston or something no, you won't have to worry about anybody getting anything remotely close to 400rwkw anytime soon :D

Jack: yours will go even more like stink then, scary!

There just is something about that GTR powerslide.. was admiring it Saturday from behind :D

Mine is back to stock, and while it hasn't got any power now :( it just feels "more complete" right across the range like the stock ECU isn't playing "catchup". I'm thnking that is what a proper ECU properly installed must be like, like a came out of the factory with XXX kw

ha - i'm 27 on Saturday... makes u realise cars can't hold u too back in life. I guess at 21 i woula been all go go go but i was still at uni then where life was cheap :D Gotta think about boring stuff like buying a house myself pretty soon b4 it all gets too expensive.

hmm.. off track.. oops, this thread is interesting - don't want it closed

anybody else got car plans wanna jump in the thread ?? :(

argh, when i was running the stock ecu with all the gear off bar the intercooler the power was all over the place through out the rev range

huge flat spots here and there, was frustrating at times

but it feels good to be dead stock in the morning passing your EPA, then getting your hands into it and putting every back on my 7pm that night instantly getting your power back

    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
