Gee, your 34 is really pain in the ass...

I just did some maths, it seems this car has been in a workshop for 92% of the time I've owned it. And in the last year, this daily has done 0kms! Luckily with that much driving, it was comprehensively insured and registered the entire time!

Boy, I love my automobile!

... Fuck no!

Shit!

planning on doing this to the 32.......

edit:

ffuuuuu. noone can help me work out what colour the paint is.. is it light grey metalic? or light grey blue metalic or the 11ty billion other things i have read

Edited by Mohsen

andddd

also noticed my front brakes are massive and my diffs are finned

theres a bees dick clearance on the s15 stockers and they look alot bigger than another R32 gtst i saw with 17's

did the gts4's have the finned diffs too?

colour is on your build plate retard, get the code and google it.

they all have "finned" diffs, non GTR's have smaller fins. Brakes are the same as R32 GTSt.

yeah i had a look at the build plate and it says its Tg0.

all the paint code threads have an asterisk next to the code. what does that mean?

also put it thru some online paint code fast and it said its blue grey metalic light bla bla bla

im confused as shit

Holy moly!

And you should go to workshop with a cake to celebrate.

not really going to matter anyway

even if you need to get parts painted the car has the paint code on the blue plate,

when they search on the paint charts on the computers at panelshops they will still get the colour

Daily. Spent a ton on a shift kit from MV autos. I generally like the ability to just put it in D when I just want to get around town. Its an option but f**k me its an expensive one especially if it's not necessary :(

I really hate that excuse. Just cause its a daily doesnt mean shit. Majority of skylines on this forum are daily and they arent all rolling around in D. Every auto owner says that excuse... Not paying you out specifically just the majority of auto drivers haha

If its a specific, specialised problem, you are probably better off doing your own investigating/research to work out what it could be and go down that track. Mechanics dont have time to spend billions of hours working on a problem they will never see in another car. If you want to be exclusive you will need to research yourself else drop a manual box into there and be done with it.

I think its time to fix my mexican fitment...

17x9 +30 with 225/45 for front (upgrade 8inch to 9inch)

17x9 +30 with 235/45 for rear (downsize my 255/40's)

and moar lows? Find me a good pic of r33 gtr rims on r32 gtst. Same rim specs. kthnxbye

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
