R34s are still over priced and at 50k you are probably getting the higher k ones, the higher k ones are starting to show up pretty often for rebuilds now so factor in that too!

Just had a quick look and 45k will get you a new SS Commodore, Ford 6 turbo or an XR5 Mondeo...

The 34 won't depreciate nearly as badly as a new car. May aswell by an 08/09 Commodore/Ford and save yourself 15k.

I've already got an 05 xr6, I really want to get into a gtr; something different than the old taxi. I don't really give two shits about the depreciation on the skyline, it'll be something I'll keep for a number of years to come which is why I was thinking a 34 gtr or a rebuilt 32 like the one that's for sale on here at the moment.

Bunta, what do you mean by alot of them are coming in for rebuilds? Any particular reason or do they kick the bucket after 100k or so?

Buy this one

Very well priced for what you get.

I don't know of any specific problems with the 34, I assume they will have the same problems as the 32s and 33s being poor oil control and ceramic turbos dying.

They shouldnt kill oil pumps like the earlier 32s though since they have the bigger oil pump drive on the crank. Other than that I'm not sure.

Oil control is the main one

Bingo!

And that is a damn well sorted 32 there!

I know right! 2.8 + 2530s = Drool

I considred a HKS 2.8 after talking to Dave Chilton, He bloody loves them, Claims they are the best kits he has seen and when he puts them in the balancing rig most of the time they need none or very very little. Sadly the budget didnt reach that far as the kits are dear as poison and my turbos would not have suited any more so even more $$ :)

Yeah 10k for crank, rods and pistons is a bitter pill to swallow. If I was to do a stroker it would be a toss up between the HKS and Jun. The Jun cranks are work of art and the lightest of the stroker cranks from the info I can find on em. They weigh the same as the stock crank.

Yeah they would be another great option *sigh* needs more money!

In other news...I think my non stroker engine is getting tuned today, if not today very very soon.

Awesome news :) When is it coming to Baskins?

Wouldn't mind going a 30DETT either. If there is a way to get the bonnet to close properly etc that's the way I would go.

yeah i considered that too, but yeah the whole bonnet closing thing didnt appeal and once again i would have been up for new turbos! I will just have to be happy with what i got until i get rich!

You guys is idiots sometimes.

You want to overtake the whoretown thread... but you keep posting in it!

Lol I thought that as well. Won't make much difference though :)

Yeah bonnet closing thing would piss me off I think. Need to win lotto. Or rob a bank. Or become a politician...

      Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

      Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.

      I have an elite 2500 running an adapter harness on an rb25de neo r34. I took the butterfly out and removed all that junk. But I also went Plus+t at the same time. The butterfly thing works in reverse to the boost solenoid on the Gtt if that makes sense
