The cheapest one I've seen was 13K

That's what has me reconsidering as well as the issue of availability of standard replacement and aftermarket parts

I remember when I used to hunt for parts for my 205 gti, everything seemed like it was coated in gold. had a quote for $900 for a new set of radiator hoses. for rubber fucking hose

hence I will probably end up buying one of the old mustang shaped celicas and have fun with that.

The only thing I don't like about them though, is the engine bay is not as generous as in the 240z

Sink another 20k into the GTR. The depressing thing is 20k doesnt go very far lol.

I'd imagine it would make it a nice streetable GTR, I have no idea about the cost of parts on those though.

im actually the same as Martin, I would like another 20k to sink into mine for brakes, new suspension, track rubber, carbon bits and maybe some bigger turbos :mrt:

Word for word excactly what I would do. :D

Great minds think alike, and scrap bigger turbos, If i was going to upgrade I would go for a 35r, tried and proven....by you!

A great story for sure.

They will all get pots of money too for selling their story to the media

there isnt enough money in the world to entice me to go through that soit.

I hope they make huge bundles from it.

If you told me in advance I was going to be stuck in a cave for ~65 days and make a few million dollars I would do it in a snap.

If you told me there was going to be 32 mexicans in the cave with me I'd probably make you double it :)

But yeah, being stuck down there and not knowing when/if you will ever get out would sure suck. Definitely hope they all make good coin.

In other news, Duke Nukem Forever might actually be released?

F*CK YEAH XF! Duke FTW!

Gearbox are the perfect company to do it too, it might actually happen this time :ninja:

and wasn't there one fellow who had his wife, mistress and possibly a third girl waiting for him to be brought out.

The wife wasn't there when he surfaced, the mistress was. :ninja:

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
