Hey Guys,

I picked up my R34 yesterday. I'm so happy, so I had to post up some pics :blush: They are a bit covered in rain, but this is the only gap I got :D

Thanks :banana: Yea, I have pretty big plans actually.

I'm building it to mainly compete in the autotest series. For this braking and suspension are key. Also, bucket loads of power will not do any favours, so to start I'll be going for between 200 and 210 rwkw. Here is the list to get there...

Engine

- RB20 wastegate actuator (increases boost to 10psi)

- FMIC

- CAI

- High flow filter

- Power FC (if I can find one :D)

- 3" turbo back exhaust

- Iridium sparkies

- Tomei Fuel pump

- Surge tank

Suspension wise

- Tein SS with EDFC

- Pretty much a whole heap of whiteline stuff to make everything adjustable

Braking

- G4 Racing brakes all round with nice big rotors for big stopping power

Body Kit

- C-West front, sides and rear

- z-tune front fenders

- Cross Factory rear fenders

- 18x10.5 Work Meister rims with some 285 or 295 rubber (lots of grip )

- East Bear vented bonnet

- R34 GTR spoiler

ICE

- Pretty much pioneer everything from head unit to two shallow 12" subs in a custom moulded boot

Thankyou to which ever mod reopened the thread :banana:

I gotta say dude you got a damn fine ride there, looks real clean.

Looks like you've got a good plan on where your going :)

If you want to change from center triple gauges to GTR mfd screen, I might be able to help with the wiring :D

Thanks for the comments guys :)

Yea, there is definately a big difference between the R33 NA and the R34. Turbo pulls a lot harder, thats for sure :banana:

Yes... it is definately a manual this time. After driving an auto for a while, I was definately missing the manual. Wouldn't go auto ever again lol

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
