series 3 (especialy 1998) fetch a higher price

maybe cos its the very last ones to be made before the R34 started rolling out.

series 3 has a better interior in my opinion, the red in the seats and door trims looks hot

not to mention the series 3 gearbox :D

yeah, for series 3 - gearbox synchros were revised.

some of the easier tell tale vspec signs are a finned diff and an active LSD light in the dash. on a side note - vspec weighs a bit more.

vspec is also a tad lower and technically is meant to be a few thousand more :D

Main differences between series 1 and series 3 are:

- Xenon headlights

- Deeper/fatter lower lip

- Red stitching on interior seats/door trims

- Right hand rear tailight has a red fog light in place of reverse light

- Stronger synchros in gearbox

- KR4 silver was not available in Series 1

- KL0 silver was not available in Series 3

There may be more but those are the most common...

hey KR4-GTR when u fitted the pfc.. how much power gain did you get from it ???

someone told me depending on safe tune or heavy tune it can vary from 30-50 kw gain

now i dont believe that.. but seeing as u have just fitted yours, do you know how much it would be

i have 217kw at all four wheels

- cat back exhaust

- apexi air filters

- boosted to 14 psi

and now the pfc..

im getting it tuned next week at Gas Motorsport.. or do you guys know anyone better then this in the sydney region

hey mate, it was 178kw @ wheels originally before tune and power fc.

now it is 222 @ wheels @ a SAFE tune - 12psi. i told them i wanted economy over power.

would be interesting to see what you got if you were to put a power fc in.

post results please!

on a side note, just filled up again - i didnt leave it until it touched the E but i did the math and i would have gotten around 470 to the full tank, daily driving.

after research, i've also learnt that a r33 gtr tank is 65 litres. a r32 gtr tank is 72 litres! :)

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.

      There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.

      I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
