BLOODY OATH!!

hahaahha, lovin life, seems like good weather today, taking it in for a clean =D

MRXTCZ

Lolz good to hear. you might see me drive past one day. i'm usually everywhere. so i'm gonna horn at cha ass! i'll be the one driving a white n/a s15 :)

btw share some more photos of your 34 when you get the chance yeah. cheers buddy!

if you drive normally on an N/a and a turbo

the turbo will definitely consume less petrol (from experience)

but... wehn u begin to hit boost... dont those vtec just happen to be next to you?

haha n/a are actually ok, im getting around ... 10L --> but i can tell my car running a bit rich.

but i drive like a grandma. nothing over 2500 rpm hahahhah

see ya lads!

:D Until the turbo kicks in, its basically a NA, And with Turbo skylines, the compression ratio is lower than in a NA, so you basically have less power = less fuel consumption, that is until the turbo spools up and you hit boost and fuel starts pumping in like niagra falls.

Haha yeah Mingy, dun worri we'll hit the strip one day hehe .

Anyways, nah man no new pics till she goes to the car wash, and that aint anytime soon looking at the weather lol.

Had some bad experiences with my other cars, wash it for an hour or 2 including polish and interior, then it starts to pour down !

Worst thing lmao.

Alright no worries. keep us updated. :)

btw i've heard polish and wax is pretty much useless. it comes off after 1 wash or 2. so i'd recommend detailing. i got my family civic done recently. its black so swirls and sh1t shows real easy. i used a product called Paint Protection Shielding. basically its a product which covers your whole car with a protection coat and makes your car shiny. it protects against sun, acid rain, bird/bat poo and other chemicals. good thing is that its permanent so doesn't come out after washes. it only cost me $250 all up including labour. might wanna give it a go!

Autech S15 for same price as Spec R FTL

NA Supra will kick an NA R34's arse...

NA Supra is just as quick as a Twin Turbo Soarer, mean car just a bit heavy... in saying that Supra's can look porn...

someone here said NA's have awesome handling as opposed to Turbo car and my comment to that is 'what..?'

R33 or R34 - i discussed this before in the other thread, R34 = newer, nicer interior and in my personal opinion, exterior (not biased even though i own a GT-T) blah blah blah...

i've never been in an NA Skyline ever but i wouldn't say a Turbo car is basically the same as an NA until turbo kicks in... from when you put the pedal to the floor before your Turbo is fully spooled up you're building sweet speed with the turbo... oh whatever, i'm too tired to discuss this...

Autech S15 FTL

NA Supra can be good...

R34 > R33

Well it does get boring behind my desk lmao, so might aswell put some brains on here, and look around. I swear everytime i visit the forum i learn something new!!

haha, anyways, hope this thread here helps future N/A buyers :P ..

    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
