So what is this cheater GT-R anyway Nick? Pics in Show me your Racing thread please :P

yeah okay will do... I didn't build it tho... after building up my GTSt I realised it would be more economical to buy something already mostly done and just tweak it... If I weren't completely hopeless with a spanner it might be worth it but when your paying for it all it really adds up... as I'm sure your already aware! :D

Yeh, hire cars are costing me too much money and am doing some touring around Ireland, so have have another 4.5weeks of out and about. Will be leaving it with a friend to either sell or store depending on work has me doing in the new year. At $4,000 i can absorb the short term hit in the hip pocket

yeah good choice! go the warmed over pommy GTST and fang that for a few weeks. will cost the same as a hire car. at say $100 a day you'll be up over $3K in hire care costs anyway and have nothing at the end of it and be driving some rubbish for 5 weeks. buy the GTST, enjoy it for a month or so, then either sell it and you'll still be in front. :P

LOL, there is still a chance, but i need "Import Baron" to tell me how to get it back to Aus :). Will sms you my UK number :)

..edit. Shit, just rang the guy and took a deposit on Monday :D Oh well, there is the other one i was looking at last week, only its more expensive :(

    • 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 ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • 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  
    • 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.
