@Colin: I may be able to drive the GT-R to willowbank for the drags for ya :D

I also mang it up in the office.

A mang is... well webster's dictionary defines it as...

umm...

It's a cool word though mang

Gramlight 57d got those fluoro colours and they're pretty affordable.

gramlights affordable? ;)

With the R33 I'd be going for a 5 or 6 spoke rim. LMGT4, TE37, GTCs or go for mesh rims like BBS LMs or Work VS-XX

In other news the unit now has power :) Only phone n internets to sort out now. Win.

Yes. Not all Gramlight but the specific design I'm suggesting. The 57d were quoted by Streeter

Gram Light 57D 18" x 9.5J +12 22,910yen eachRough costs on that would be something like this...

Cost of item ¥91,640

Ship item to me ¥0

Bank fee to pay seller ¥630

My commission ¥7,000

Removing 4 tyres ¥0

Shipping to Aus via Sea assuming 13 kg ¥31,200

* (I could be off with the weight but what ever it costs to send Ill

pass on to you)

ROUGH TOTAL in Yen: ¥130,470

ROUGH TOTAL: $1,875

Comparing to

TE37 in 18" x 10.5J +22 52390yen each

*this quote is based on sea post, they are over max size so there is

a change they might have to be sent by EMS.

Rough costs on that would be something like this...

Cost of item ¥209,560

Ship item to me ¥0

Bank fee to pay seller ¥630

My commission ¥14,000

Removing 4 tyres ¥0

Shipping to Aus via Sea assuming 12 kg x4 ¥29,800

* (I could be off with the weight but what ever it costs to send Ill

pass on to you)

ROUGH TOTAL in Yen: ¥253,990

ROUGH TOTAL: $3,649

*depending on exchange rate. current rate is 72.9

These would be a lot cheaper with the current exchange rate sitting around 85?

I got told today theres a high chance of me heading up to site either in Jan or Feb.... WOOOOOooooo COILOVER HERE I COME!

Dudeman why dont u just get a job on a mine site and then you can earn sweet moneys ?

Nah dw Martin I think it's probably better my car doesn't go the drags. The noises the gearbox is making atm are pretty disgusting. Another thing on the list for while its off the road.

Yeah but those gramlights are pretty gay. If you're going to have them you have to have the 57 Pros.

What site?

All the arse rape puts me off working in the mines.

I wanna know the design part of things rather than operational for starters. And I'll need the commission experience if I wanna go down the path I'm planning.

    • 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.
