hi all. i've just recently chosen an r34 gt4 for my first car.

what i'm now looking for are parts to upgrade the cosmetics of the car with going too outrageous. as being on red p's it's about all i can do.

Now the car is completely stock bar a catback exhaust. & i'm looking to do those little things to make it look better. i'd like to start with LED tail lights, clear front & side indicators all of which i'm looking to go to justjap for. next would be new rims as the ones it currently has aren't exactly what i'd call nice... IMO i'm looking for a more basic looking set. as for the body a GTR front bar is a must, to me it does much more credit to the car than the standard one & perhaps follow it through with the rest of the basic GTR kit. - badges obviously. makes it look more appealing but neater than alot of the other kits floating around.

now i know what i want, or atleast a basic style of what i'd like to get, now i must ask you guys where & for how much do you think i should get these parts for. i know the rear flares are harder to get & install as i've read & learnt quite alot from these forums but i'd like to know the places you guys personally reccomend & have had good experiences with. i know my stuff but am ultimately lacking the experience you lot would obviously have. any help would be great.

thanks.

Have a look hereat the link above, JSAI is located in Sydney. Josh who runs it is a top bloke.

nice, hey thanks mate you're a legend. these prices are MUCH better than what i'd been finding lol. know anyone who'd do the rear flares? i don't know many shops so i've spent most my time on justjap & powerplay.

Hey Dean, there's one thing you should know...this is for your sake.

A GTR badge belongs only on a GTR doesn't matter how good your car looks or how powerful it is.

It will never be a GTR, so why would you even bother trying to decieve people to think it is?

It just isn't right :D

i was being sarcastic?

i plan to shave it all but the gt badges lol. hence the - before a typed GTR badges up top. it's an n/a skyline, power is hardly on the cards to begin with & as for looks. the kit is all i want. don't like the gt stock kit at all. impul is growing on me.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.

      AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.

      As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.

      spot the stagea

      By AnimalGarage · Posted

      It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.

      Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
