Niiiiiiiice

I'd have one but I'm scared of their engines

Cheers. Don't be. Like anything it depends how you treat it. The oil is half the price, easier to service (4 spark plugs under the car without needing to pull things a part to get to it.) And it's actually better than my R33 on fuel (until I start giving it some top end runs because this thing just doesnt run out of puff. :D). Sure it'll probably need a rebuild around 120,000. But hey, just an excuse to Bridgeport it. :bunny:

I always saw myself as a 34 GTR man but I fell in love with everything above plus the doors, race style interior/cockpit, and that sweet sweet rotor sound in the higher rev range.

Thanks Mandy. haha yeah I'm a bit of a maintainence freak. Gave it a 1.5 hr clean & wax today and covered up all the swirls, and already started mixing 2 stroke in the fuel. It's definitely like learning cars all over again but.

Hot As!

Where from?

Mods?

PM price please

is sex!

Thanks, was a private sale. Last owner had it for 6 months but he has to bail over east. Was originally a Fabcar so it's in top knick.

It's got a Nardi Torino wheel, turbo back exhaust and BOV. It's pretty damn quick but. It's sitting on Rays Gram Lights. I don't like them but so if anyone wants to buy them let me know. :D

oh and a 7"eclipse deck with GPS that's only good for spitting cd's out and thats about it. lol.

price, was good. lol.

cant wait to see this around Rocky

Thanks guys. :bunny:

Pal, I'm sure you'll see it a lot as I moved back to Rockingham today and it's my daily until I fix the R33 4 door. Don't suppose you have a spare AFM I could borrow buy any chance to check if that's what's wrong? I gave it a clean coz it was idling rough and stalling at low rpm after I put the stock ECU back in with contact cleaner. then I think it made it die completely. :D

I get just over 400km's to a tank. (76Litres). That's normal driving. When you make use of the TT you can watch the fuel gauge drop. :D I've been driving it pretty conservatively but due to being on double or nothing and my daily is out of order atm.

      Might import a stagea

      By iamhe77 · Posted

      Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.

      My BMW E39 528i touring

      By PranK · Posted

      Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.

      My BMW E39 528i touring

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Duncan · Posted

      OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
