Not the infamous R34 coil packs? They die if you look at them sideways, splitfires!!!

yep i agree it happened to me. your engine light comes on for no reason and it can run rough or other times the light is just on and still idles smoothly. i bought splitfires and put them in and everything is ace. :) . except for a truck cracking my windscreen and a car reversing into me in the parking lot when i wasnt there resulting in me having to pay for it all. :P . but i still love my car and yours looks great congrats.

ps. keep the bonnet its awsome.

good work,

my spark plugs were some crappy ones from america

nothing beats jdm iridium ones !

vikz, i just got excited im near the cabramatta region LOL!!!!!!

but i head down there once in a while!

come down to our next KK at liverpool cruissssssse !

ttys buddddddy!

Hey everyone,

Ive been hunting around for about 3 weeks tossing and turning between a non-turbo R33, R34, Supra or an Autech s15 (if i magically win 5 grand)

I was looking at the one that MR XTC recently bought, the bastard hasnt brought the add down so i just discovered he got it. :blink:

I'm trying to set myself a limit of $16 000 unless a mint autech comes along for cheap then ill go so far in debt ill have to feed myself through the ass.

Anyways here is the R34 thats at the top of my list

Lines look clean, fair amount of Km's. Being a friggin Red P plater in the grand old State of NSW killed my chances of buyin a 33 GTST from a mate at work.

My plans for the car cosmetically are minor, wing and side skirts. Engine wise i will mainly just go a cat back exhaust system, and anything i can hide from the cops.

I have plenty of time (gotta a few months of payin off another loan before car) so any and all feedback on what to look out for on a good/bad skyline would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Dave

Did we not just have a thread on this?

Did we not reach a decision in the last thread?

Are the 2 34's not the same?

Quick rundown.

34 is better than 33.

NA Supra is too Heavy to be a solid NA (In my opinion)

Autech S15 is fat too expensive and the last thing you want to do at a young age is bury urself in debit

Buy an NA S13, 1.8L MX5, Type R instead.

    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
