so you guys only got to 297rwkw!!

y not do a full engine rebuild and go for over 400rwkw???

What for? The point was to show what you can achieve without a full engine rebuild. In any case, with 297 at the wheels it was already becoming fairly compromised as a road car. Personally I think about the 250-260 mark is ideal for a RWD car this weight, unless you are building a car for drag racing only (which wasn't my intention). We may build a car specifically for drag in future, but if we do we won't start with something as heavy as an R34. More likely an R32.

Actually it still has the Tomei cams and HKS metal head gasket, which lets it run 0.8bar on the standard computer. Combined with the exhaust it goes surprisingly well. The handling is pretty special too.

i wouldnt pay that for a car i know has been flogged half its life. Im sure the engine after running close on 300kw wont be as clean as lots out there.. but thats my opinion.

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
