Dude I was scared for you, I was following close but your car was all over the place!!

You need Coilovers and sway bars immediately!!!

I was scared for all of us at times given the hard braking and err:.. 'drafting' going on :P how's ur lip billy? Hehe

Rim spec spend a bit extra and get a nicely modified gtr and you'll still have money left over for the work car.

Modified 33gtr + work car > m3

nah dont want a modified gtr engine wise has to be stock

but yeah it would be the wiser/least selfish thing to do

and not sure if you mean you wouldn't modify it, or you want a stock one because you think it will be less thrashed, but don't always assume modified means thrashed..Often means that the person has the money to look after it properly, and might actually respect it..

ah in that case buy one for ~$20k, throw some wheels and suspension at it and you're done for ~$26k

mmm something like that

Stock or modded, no difference really.

If you want untrashed car, buy new car.

stock - you'll get pulled over and let off.

modded - you wont get let off

Buy mine :D

Nah not ready to get rid of it just yet still having my fun :P

now i know not to buy yours :P

but it has the right colour combo and is series 3 = win. if you dont mind me asking what did you pay for it?

22.5, if my memory serves me correctly (just came with a cat-back system and rims). I don't mind talking about what I paid - sure I could of gotten one of the cheaper ones but I wanted this one and that was that, its a 98 as well which I'm happy about last year they were made only real issue is there was a small crack on the front lip but dads pretty handy with fixing plastic and shit around the house so fixed it awesome for me back to its normal strength.

ah thats alright. yeah it would have to be a 98, dont wanna go backwards age wise

Just buy stock looking modded GTR.

that wont help when you get pulled over :rolleyes:zero hassles meaning i dont wanna spend a cent clearing defects/EPAs and i'd like to drive it anytime i want stress free

Just do the basics exhaust, intake, boost just make sure you get a quiet exhaust.

basics are fine. thing is i plan on keeping my next car for atleast 3 years so i rather it lasts, than to make it go quicker and shorten its life

im still keeping the M3 and a 34R as options but atm leaning towards the 33. fml.

that wont help when you get pulled over :rolleyes:zero hassles meaning i dont wanna spend a cent clearing defects/EPAs and i'd like to drive it anytime i want stress free

I never had issues with my previous GTR and my current GTR both has aftermarket turbos and noisy exhaust (granted that I don't drive 32R much).

It sounds like you're after stockest of the stock. Good luck finding one.

thats the right attitude, who cares how cheap it is if its a heap of shit? quality when will people learn.

on another note, i fkn hate labor governments and i'm never donating again! theiving scum.

thank god i voted liberal and can blame everyone else who voted labor

    • Power is fed to the ECU when the ignition switch is switched to IGN, at terminal 58. That same wire also connects to the ECCS relay to provide both the coil power and the contact side. When the ECU sees power at 58 it switches 16 to earth, which pulls the ECCS relay on, which feeds main power into the ECU and also to a bunch of other things. None of this is directly involved in the fuel pump - it just has to happen first. The ECU will pull terminal 18 to earth when it wants the fuel pump to run. This allows the fuel pump relay to pull in, which switches power on into the rest of the fuel pump control equipment. The fuel pump control regulator is controlled from terminal 104 on the ECU and is switched high or low depending on whether the ECU thinks the pump needs to run high or low. (I don't know which way around that is, and it really doesn't matter right now). The fuel pump control reg is really just a resistor that controls how the power through the pump goes to earth. Either straight to earth, or via the resistor. This part doesn't matter much to us today. The power to the fuel pump relay comes from one of the switched wires from the IGN switch and fusebox that is not shown off to the left of this page. That power runs the fuel pump relay coil and a number of other engine peripherals. Those peripherals don't really matter. All that matters is that there should be power available at the relay when the key is in the right position. At least - I think it's switched. If it's not switched, then power will be there all the time. Either way, if you don't have power there when you need it (ie, key on) then it won't work. The input-output switching side of the relay gains its power from a line similar (but not the same as) the one that feeds the ECU. SO I presume that is switched. Again, if there is not power there when you need it, then you have to look upstream. And... the upshot of all that? There is no "ground" at the fuel pump relay. Where you say: and say that pin 1 Black/Pink is ground, that is not true. The ECU trigger is AF73, is black/pink, and is the "ground". When the ECU says it is. The Blue/White wire is the "constant" 12V to power the relay's coil. And when I say "constant", I mean it may well only be on when the key is on. As I said above. So, when the ECU says not to be running the pump (which is any time after about 3s of switching on, with no crank signal or engine speed yet), then you should see 12V at both 1 and 2. Because the 12V will be all the way up to the ECU terminal 18, waiting to be switched to ground. When the ECU switches the fuel pump on, then AF73 should go to ~0V, having been switched to ground and the voltage drop now occurring over the relay coil. 3 & 5 are easy. 5 is the other "constant" 12V, that may or may not be constant but will very much want to be there when the key is on. Same as above. 3 goes to the pump. There should never be 12V visible at 3 unless the relay is pulled in. As to where the immobiliser might have been spliced into all this.... It will either have to be on wire AF70 or AF71, whichever is most accessible near the alarm. Given that all those wires run from the engine bay fusebox or the ECU, via the driver's area to the rear of the car, it could really be either. AF70 will be the same colour from the appropriate fuse all the way to the pump. If it has been cut and is dangling, you should be able to see that  in that area somewhere. Same with AF71.   You really should be able to force the pump to run. Just jump 12V onto AF72 and it should go. That will prove that the pump itself is willing to go along with you when you sort out the upstream. You really should be able to force the fuel pump relay on. Just short AF73 to earth when the key is on. If the pump runs, then the relay is fine, and all the power up to both inputs on the relay is fine. If it doesn't run (and given that you checked the relay itself actually works) then one or both of AF70 and AF71 are not bringing power to the game.
    • @PranK can you elaborate further on the Colorlock Dye? The website has a lot of options. I'm sure you've done all the research. I have old genuine leather seats that I have bought various refurbing creams and such, but never a dye. Any info on how long it lasts? Does it wash out? Is it a hassle? What product do I actually need? Am I just buying this kit and following the steps the page advises or something else? https://www.colourlockaustralia.com.au/colourlock-leather-repair-kit-dye.html
    • These going to fit over the big brakes? I'd be reeeeeeeeaaaall hesitant to believe so.
    • The leather work properly stunned me. Again, I am thankful that the leather was in such good condition. I'm not sure what the indent is at the top of the passenger seat. Like somebody was sitting in it with a golf ball between their shoulders. The wheels are more grey than silver now and missing a lot of gloss.  Here's one with nice silver wheels.
    • It's amazing how well the works on the leather seats. Looks mint. Looking forward to see how you go with the wheels. They do suit the car! Gutter rash is easy to fix, but I'm curious about getting the colour done.
