Hahaha i definately <3 those pics too... I put a couple on facebook and got whored by many females hahahahahahaha

I just don't get it....... like, AT ALL. There's nothing appealing to me at all. Ahhh dear.

On another note, do we know anyone with an R34 4 door, plates EIN34? Saw her at aspley about 9pm, I was about to wave, and had a stupid sheepish grin on my face like 'HEY LOOK AT ME I KNOW SAU' and she just snobbed me bigtime hahahaha. Fail.

I hate this twilight shit.

The end.

So I'm probably a no show this Thursday. The car is hiccuping and hesitating like I have a leak somewhere. My other thought it that it might be my injectors, not sure yet. All fluids are fine, temperature is fine, but whenever I accelerate she hesitates and then goes from no boost to full boost, or struggles to hold boost (especially uphill).

I don't want to risk blowing something up, so for now I'm semi offroad until I get some fundage together to get the car looked at. That probably won't be until the new year thanks to the Christmas season sucking away all my money :blink:

So this also means I'm out for this weekend down the coast. And probably out from Wednesday/Thursday meets until I can sort out the problem.

Thats fkd man. Could be the fuel pump too

Hahaha, sorry man. I have a spare r33 stock fuel pump that might be of use? Not sure if it fits the r32 bracket though, but can't imagine it won't considering gtr pumps fit nicely. I dont have the filter though cos the walbro ones are shit which is what I got mine replaced with. Actually.... the walbro pumps are shit in general, worst upgrade done to my car.

Thanks man, I'll see if I can find out if it'll fit. The filter is fine, that was replaced when I got the car.

Tomorrow I'm going to check all my hoses and make sure none are split. Then see if I can hit my cousin up to use his hoist and make sure that I don't have any gaps in my exhaust etc. I'm just hoping that it's not a dead turbo.

Yeah man, no worries. I was talking about the filter on the fuel pump itself. They come with this mesh pocket thing, stock one should be sweet though. Normally you can see oil splattering around the turbo if it's dead cos the seals blow out first. I could be wrong though. If it is dead, be a good excuse for a highflow. Not a major job on your car either :) Gaps in the exhaust you can normally hear or smell them. My money's on the fuel pump or a fkd injector maybe

Ahhh good point about being able to smell an exhaust hole. I think I was worrying so much I forgot about that. I never smell fuel/exhaust so that's a step in the right direction.

Highflow? Cat? Don't need one ;)

I'll get into the engine bay tomorrow and double check everything. Do some tightening of clamps etc.

Hahaha, emo much? Summer semester at uni is hommus. Makes me wanna be emo too :)

;)

im rad

when my stock turbo on the 32 was on the way out i had the same thing - itd boost and then nothing at all

i found it slowly got worse the long i drove - like once the car was warm and i started hitting boost it was ok, but if i smashed it/clutch kicked it - after that shot of boost it'd go to shit for a bit

im sorry to hear your misfortune bro - im happy to help where i can

Suitcase full of money? :)

with that said - rb25 turbos are cheap and a great bang for buck upgrade ;)

yeah, the plan was an R34 turbo when this one died. Might be a sooner than expected upgrade

my luck is just bad as yours mate ;) - plus i just had to buy a new engine

nigga what? Was your old one that rooted it couldn't get rebuilt? That sucks man....

I got 'kinda' lucky with my car. Havne't had any problems yet (touches wood), besides a fkd spigot bearing, leaking rocker cover gasket seal, fkd air con bush and a timing belt needing replacement. Cars = money pits :)

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
