Get involved in motorsports and then you'll get the opposite.

"shit mate that car is fast - how much power are you making?"

"it's pretty stock actually. I dunno 200kw's or something"

"but doesn't it have a HKS 2.8L with twin 2860-5's"

"ah yep. But its pretty standard otherwise"

"other than the hollinger, dry sump, RS shocks, cf panels, bigger brakes etc"

"yep other than them pretty standard as I said"

reminds me of this bloke i met once. i was then making 260rwk in my gtst and one bloke from the area is like my mate raced you and you just lost man. lol.

i asked him how much power his friend has and hes like " its got a exhaust and boost making 200 at the wheels". I laughed so hard.

i responded it must be a absolute freak to keep up... then i showed him the dyno sheet. The look on this guys face was so priceless.

i wanted to punch him in the face but i found it too funny :)

I can think of worse, someone trying to convince you your car is something it isn't.

The R34:

"OMG, that's a GT-R."

Me: "No, it's a four GT-T."

"I know my Skylines."

Me: "I can promise you it's not."

"It has a GT-R engine though."

Me: "No it doesn't."

and so on and so forth.

N15:

"Is that one of those AWD Pulsars."

Me: "No, it's front wheel drive."

or

"Is it turbo?"

Me: "Do you think the front mount is there for looks?"

Eventually I just give in and let them believe whatever makes them happy.

when i first got car i went to dyno day and it made 139kw so i always use that figure :)

I'm with you on this one... ...Went to a Dyno Day at RE Customs and got almost 150kws... ...So I tell people that... ...It's got what it's got...

However... ...If you're a tool in a Comedydor and you ask me at the lights I might just say it's a little shy of 250kws... ...And then let you tear up those sweet looking steel stockies as you try to prove you've got more ba-- *ahem* power... :)

Oh snap. I was going to post that Ash :mad:

I mean I wanted to just get right into it but I thought f*ck it. What the point….

Exactly.

Who cares what power other people claim to have... good for them. If it's not true then they're only fooling themself :yucky:

    • It's almost certainly a reluctor generating an "AC" waveform. No, ECUs don't generally read those - they're usually set up for PWM square wave 0-5v stuff.
    • 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.
