Hi guyssss

im thinking of buying this R34 GTT.it has few mods like

Hks intercooler

hks boost controller

hks pod filer

hks cat back exaust.

power FC

there are some paint fading away in body kit.. i think he did a cheap job. so im gona have to re spray it..

how much it will roughly cost me to repray just the body kit. or is it worth repraying the whole car? big money difrents?

the car is currently not tuned. the owner stating the car will make more than 216 rwkw for sure in safeboost, and he is evevn willing to put it down in the contract??

for the stock turbo.. isnt it a bit too much?

if anyone kindah know anythink.. please just putting down.. anything will help.

thanks for your time guys...

and its a yellow car, which used to have a number plate "ulive-1"

Sounds like he has quality mods, which is always a good start. Not China crap

Spraying always costs a bit, but since its just the body kit, shouldn't be more than $1k. If the paint is fine on the rest, don't worry about it, just get the kit done. Not too cluey on colours, but some colours cost more due to difficulty to match and/or metallic etc. Whole car will cost you minimum $2.5k if you have a friend who will do it for cash on the weekend or something. Probably more like $3-3.5k.

That power doesn't sound too much for a stock turbo at all. With those mods, he's probably uped the boost to about 12psi. That is fine with the stock turbo, but I wouldn't take it much further. It can handle more, but then you're starting to push it a bit hard.

What does he mean by not tuned? has he had the power fc recently installed?

is the car making that power now or does he think that would be the figure after a tune.

Make sure you look at the condition of the brakes and suspension and the general condition of the engine bay

suspension you can look at the condition of the rubber boots eg. to get an idea of it's current condition.

thankx guys.....

i havnt got much experiance in chking all the suspension and stuff. but im gona take it a "cheaser" sopme full quality performanc machanic to do a full check up on the car before buying it.

he said he was making 200rwkw without the power fc. but he didnt tune the car yet after putting the power fc.and the machanic told him the car will make arnd 220rwkw with power fc.

lol i was looking at buying that car.. your details say you already got an r34 GTT???

yeah with those mods you will get somewhere between the 200 and 220 rwkw.. but it is advised to get the car tuned asap with the pfc installed.. dont turbo or be heavy footed as much as possible..

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
