You have a 2wd or are you getting the crownwheel and pinion changed over?

Have a s2 RS4V, kept the stag housing with existing crownwheel and pinion, put shimmed up LSD centre out of my 32 in to the stagea housing. Had to use the 32gtst half shafts and transfer the ABS rings over from the old shafts. The flanges on the 32gtst half shafts bolted up to the stag axles fine.

Also fitted a 33gtr front swaybar, couldn't fit the rear one as it didn't come with rubbers and there was no way the stockers would fit :)

Haven't given it a good drive yet as had a boot full of crap on the way home, does feel like it turns in a lot nicer and has less roll. Can also feel the diff doing its' thing, need to finish reinstalling everything on to the carpc and get it back in the car so I can turn VCT on.. it doesn't even contemplate trying to turn the tyres without VCT :wub:

**hopes it rains on the way to work tomorrow**

P.S. cheers to chuckie for his help!

got them from 666DAN.

i have also done the 3 DIN gauges.

unfortunately the LEDs he gave me for the climate control buttons dont fit - they're too tall and foul on the circuit board so i had to leave those stock. tried filing the LED's down but couldnt get them low enough without risking exposing the element. bit annoyed because i did actaully send him the thread that explained this problem.....but he said they'd fit and sold them to me anyway. anyway only a few bucks. also had to custom fit the LED for the key surround as it's a whack one that i'd say you can only get from nissan - part of a huge housing etc - had to drill it out and solder in a t5 LED.

anyway, onwards and upwards!

also managed to manipulate the wiring on my alarm siren so that it actually scares people rather than sounding like an ailing bird.

Are they 19x10 all round? Whats the offset?

10" fit in the rear pretty easy pending the offset, 9.5" +35 are perfect on the front. Im sure with a bit of a flair and tyre stretch you can comfortably fit 10" up front depending on your offset

Bah the boxes said 19x10 but the rims are actually stamped 9.5 phew looks like it should be good for 235's

but no centrecaps :)

also.. anyone with a GT2 HDI intercooler what size slim line fan did you require for the condenser ?

the more stretch, the less protection for the lip

i'd be going 255 at least

I reckon 235 is probably a bit too much of a stretch, 245 at least...

Spal thermo's are quite thin, but I'm sure one of the guys who've fitted the kit will chime in with the best option.

P.S. Hurry uuup, I want to see pics! :)

More like 255, 265 - you only need 8in rims for 235.

So, yeah like I said; at least.

Some people go for that extreme stretch, personally, I don't like it. I'm running 245's on an 8" rim, but I ran 245's on my last set of 9" rims and they sat just proud of the rim edge, so on a 9.5" they would've been level, which is why I said that.

Also, after seeing Bbenny's 19x 8.5" Enkeis, with 225's (which I would've though were too narrow) looking spot on, an inch wider with another 20mm of tyre, would be about right. Just one man's opinion.

Anyhoo, back to the show.

I am pretty sure this is the same fan that I have on my car with the HDI kit.

Tested 2WD + LSD in the wet this morning.. definitely lights both wheels :happy:

It's pretty tight, can feel it carrying on like the 2-way in the skyline does but not as harsh.

The tight LSD + bigger front swaybar has given a bit of mid corner push but it's very predictable and turn in is much nicer! I'm thinking once the bigger rear swaybar goes on it should remove most of that mid corner push and make it a smidge more tail happy :)

Overall, very, very happy with the budget mods.. $50 swaybar, $220 diff ($20 for shims, $200 for my diff guy to set it up) ;)

235's will be fine. i'm running 235's on my 18x10s, they aren't really that stretched, and the lip protector still hangs out a little bit.

im thinking so scotty and so says the tyre shop.. weve come up with a formula 245 all round and rolled gaurds (gotta be 93PS to keep em legal)- dunlop sports max's

for roughly $430 each which aint too bad for 19's

The kyb's go on next week and then its straight off the rollin gaurds shop then the tyre shop. :ninja:

What are the offsets PetroDola?

Are they rolling or flaring the guards? The fronts are already "rolled" from the factory, the rears can be rolled.

Is yours a RS? let me know the offset and I can work out exactly how far out from the factory guards they will sit, or if they will foul the front control arm.

      A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?

      So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...

      the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
