hey guys, just wanted to show yous the new stag i picked up on friday night... its been tastefully modded with the usual front mount, apexi enhaust, hks gtrs kit, haltech interceptor, tein coilovers, 18" advanti's and camber and caster adjusters.

i really like the car and even better now that i own one.

look forward to talking to you guys about all the weird and wonderful things that are japanese!! lol

Nice well equipped car. Is the Haltech user adjustable and if so do you need a lap top or some kind of hand controller?

it can with a RWC with front mount and pod filter ? and aftermarket ECU ? and turbo !!! WTF

wanna swap ? if you got that for around 13-16k you saved a shit load in todays dollar for modding it :blink:

yeah it was no problem... i think the stuff like the ecu and the turbo wouldn't be a biggie as he probably didn't know what to look for. . yeah i paid about 17k for it. and its only got 71,xxx on the clock.

jezboosted - i'm actually from ipswich, close enough to brisbane.

KiwiRS4T - i believe its adjustable from a laptop as the serial leads hangs down from the dash and sits under that passenger floor mat. but the trick is that where he got it tuned the guy has locked it and won't give him the codes, and if you try to get in you can clear the password but it clears the tune aswell..

According to Haltech, the interceptors are only good for fuel trimming on most of the Nissan engines (inc RB). So it looks like it's the locally made equivalent of the SAFC or DFA.

I also noticed that there's a Malpassi Rising-rate regulator fitted in your engine bay.

they also do ignition the same way the SITC does by manipulating the cas signal. and yes, fuel the same way as a SAFC.

    • There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.
    • Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go. 
    • The roof is wrapped
    • This is how I last did this when I had a master cylinder fail and introduce air. Bleed before first stage, go oh shit through first stage, bleed at end of first stage, go oh shit through second stage, bleed at end of second stage, go oh shit through third stage, bleed at end of third stage, go oh shit through fourth stage, bleed at lunch, go oh shit through fifth stage, bleed at end of fifth stage, go oh shit through sixth stage....you get the idea. It did come good in the end. My Topdon scan tool can bleed the HY51 and V37, but it doesn't have a consult connector and I don't have an R34 to check that on. I think finding a tool in an Australian workshop other than Nissan that can bleed an R34 will be like rocking horse poo. No way will a generic ODB tool do it.
    • Hmm. Perhaps not the same engineers. The OE Nissan engineers did not forsee a future with spacers pushing the tie rod force application further away from the steering arm and creating that torque. The failures are happening since the advent of those things, and some 30 years after they designed the uprights. So latent casting deficiencies, 30+ yrs of wear and tear, + unexpected usage could quite easily = unforeseen failure. Meanwhile, the engineers who are designing the billet CNC or fabricated uprights are also designing, for the same parts makers, the correction tie rod ends. And they are designing and building these with motorsport (or, at the very least, the meth addled antics of drifters) in mind. So I would hope (in fact, I would expect) that their design work included the offset of that steering force. Doesn't mean that it is not totally valid to ask the question of them, before committing $$.
