suspension (coilovers, camber plates for rear, camber arms for front): $3200

wheels (meister S1's, anodized outer lips, powdercoated centers, new bolts, labour to take apart, put back together, balance): smidgen over $3000

fuck. i overshot the mark a long time ago.

then add:

OEM bodykit and front splitter

paint

leather reconditioning

burberry print headlining

OEM xenon headlights

Hella led tail lights

FFFUUU!

also, jizzy, bright fucking qualified audio engineer you are putting a $2000+ precision audio system in a car that's subject to road traffic noise, tyre noise, vibrations, interior rattles, engine noise, electrical feedback and poor staging. I bet you also try to find virgins in a whorehouse.

$4000+ actually :thumbsup: And I don't really listen to it properly while driving, only when the car is off.

While driving it's just ambient noise really. Sometimes I'll crank it to a ridiculous level if the gearbox whine is shitting me.

Really gotta fix that soon.

you listen to music in a car while it's off? wtf.

don't you get out and go wherever you're going? I'm sure you have a soundproofed room in your house to enjoy your tunes in rather than in the car?

I spend a lot of time just sitting in my car. It's like my little sanctuary :thumbsup:

But nah, most nights I'll go park at the beach with a chick friend, chill, listen to some tunes or watch a movie etc.

It's especially good in summer with the targas off.

And no, I can't do it at home. My bedroom is extremely small, crammed full of double bed and audio gear goodness :D

No soundproofing and my 2 younger brothers are in the rooms backing onto mine, meaning no noise after 7pm (homework / bed time)

So yeah, the car is great in that aspect. Just need to upgrade my battery.

or get comfortable with f**king in public places.

car is my sanctuary GTFO. lol. for srs?

Since when did I mention f*cking? :/ I will happily do that in my own bed.

And yes I'm serious. I'd sleep in my car if I could. I love it to bits.

Yeah, I did last night. Was pretty chill.

Besides, I have a girlfriend for all that kinky shit.

That's why I said "IF I could" :/

Passenger seat removed, you could. The footwells are pretty long. Replace the rear storage box with a pillow and you'd be sweet.

That's what I'd do if my parents kicked me out right now :) Cost effective living.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
