I don't have one yet but my dad doesn't mind and my mum is clueless about cars and hopefully things stay that way.

Having said that I would still get one if my parents were against it. :thumbsup::ermm:

Rhys, tell your mum you need a turbo to attract a member of the opposite gender so you can provide said grandkids :(

I totally agree. U need to the turbo to get the girls. All depends on what type of girls u want to attract!

Anyway, how old r u? Maybe a bit young to have kids? Im 24 and i think im way too young and imature to have kids.

I'm going on 34 so I did'nt exactly need my parents approval but some sort of positive note from them kind of made me feel better.

Myself: "Some Skylines are turbos"

My Dad: "You dont need a turbo in a car that small"

Once my R33 is bought my Dad has fun outrunning speeding b double trucks on the way home from Adelaide so I got my positive note eventually :P

I'm 18, but I still live at home. Therefore my parents can kick the car out of the garage (they're threatened that) and I HATE parking it outside, no matter where it is!

hmm. think you'll need more than a hand :D

BAHAHAHA!!! Good point Eric.

Karl... I'm going to have about $500 in my account soon. $1200 painting the new kit, $800 on tyres, $2500 on insurance... My account is drained :D Gonna stop (hopefully) spending money on my car, and put it up for sale when I have $5k. Then with the money I get from the sale, I'll be able to afford a GTS-t! And all the shit that comes with it :banana:

Anyone want to buy my R33 GTS for $160k so I can afford an R35??? Come on, you know you want to!

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
