Hi All,

I'm new to the forum and the proud owner of an r34 after months of the horrible import wait!

I saved and worked long and hard to get the beast and once i can save up a bit more i want to start doing a few things just wanted to be pointed in the right direction;

I would like to upgrade the air filter from the stock box (have been looking at apexi but i dont know exactly what i would need)

Intercooler - Any brands/sizes/places to look recommended for good price and quality

Front dump pipe (pipe from turbo to the cat, mine only goes from cat back) - hope i have the terms right here =/

I then plan on tinting it etc and possibly suspension, rims and system.

Don't have a huge budget but if i know what i should be looking for then i can work towards it and do it in stages if need be.

My previous car was a 1.5 ltr lancer so this is a massive jump for me already, not looking to go too huge in terms of power or performance just

a few 'minor' upgrades. Apologies if my terms above are wrong I'm still learning and any advice or tips are greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

:)

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
