Received this in the email at work. It's from NDSOC (Nissan Datsun SportsOwners Club).

G'Day All,

A film company needs an R34 for a shoot (this Friday night if possible) in Nth Melbourne- the more modified the car is the better.

You will be paid for the evening - about 3 hours or so.

Your plates will be covered, the car is parked and does not move- the filming is around it.

Please let me know ASAP- if you know someone who would be interested feel free to pass this one- but they need to find one quickly!

Thanks

Karyn

I hope it's not for a TAC "hoon" advertisement!

there is one, but no engine in it haha

and just read your fine print, be funny if they, go on like " if you own a car like this and jazz it up like this and like that, well get you, and do all that we can to get hoons of the road"

Haha it's probably a trap to defect R34's in the hope that several will turn up on the Friday night. It's a legitimate email and car club though. Easy money and semi-fame for an R34. I'd do it if I had one.

Yeah I'm surprised no one has jumped on this. Getting paid to stand around for 3 hours while your car is parked...you can't beat that.

Just because people dont post does not mean they have not emailed :P

I saw a few people checking the thread out before, i have a feeling they would have sent emails off :D

def worth doing something like this - my jazz was used for a commercial paid $400 bux on the spot :P

Hi Guys,

Thanks to everyone who emailed me (and yes there were quite a few).

A car has been found that ticks all the boxes..... the plates are hidden, the car isn't driven - it is stationary (so wouldn'tve mattered what it looked like on the inside), but once again i appreciate you all contacting me, and to birds who posted it.

Not a bad way to earn $100's whilst you do nothing for 3 hours..!!!!

I don't know who the client is, just, was just contacted and asked to find an R34, I have a fair idea, and believe it's comedy rather than drama based.

Apparantly, they tell there is a slight possibility of another project needing a Skyline in the future so i'll let you all know if anything comes of it.

Cheers,

      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.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
