Hello.

This is my first time posting and i feel a little silly.

I drive an r34 and unfortunately i do not know a lot about it. My boyfriend was the one who knew what to do, where to go, what to buy and he is not longer in my life.

I would be very grateful to find someone that would be willing to help me out. Be happy to answer any stupid questions i have or help me with problems, especially someone in the Launceston area.

I don't want to have to sell it because i love driving it and i don't want to have to ask the ex for help. Plus i don't want to be that stupid girl that knows nothing about her car.

I would greatly appreciate any help.

P.s Project Dark Winter was the log in that my ex created forever ago, not sure how to change it :(

Welcome to the forum PWD, as the others have already pointed out don't be afraid to ask questions but 99% of the time the answer is already on the forum so remember to use the search function.

There are plenty of places in Launceston that specialise in Imports & Performance cars and countless threads here in the Tassie section regarding that topic and the topic of tuning so maybe read a few of them to bring yourself upto speed.

As for the name change, post here with your request :rofl2:

and thanks to other people that reminded me why i will probably never post anything again.

I so new it was going to come to this!!!

I have a copy of the r34 manual on disc if you like, after a while you get to know who is who on these forums and most of the guys are just having a bit of fun

and I am sure if you ask a question they would all love to help.

I use Rons Automotive for all major things or for stuff i just cant be bothered doing, He is always willing to help out and will do a good job at a good price,

and thanks to other people that reminded me why i will probably never post anything again.

Most people on here are helpful... Unfortunately select few are yet to grow up.

Feel free to ask any questions.

Also remember the R34 is going to be no more difficult than any other car to maintain, And i'd rather spend money on maintaining a car i like and enjoy driving like the 34.

My mum actually drives a moddified R33 gts-t and has learnt the basics about it, knows enough to get her by.

...Welcome by the way :action-smiley-069:

and thanks to other people that reminded me why i will probably never post anything again.

Don't let immature comments from some members put you off . Its an enthusiast community after all , regardless of one's sex!

i forgot the internets is serious business.

But seriosly if you start a thread build around the fact that your a girl (recently single at that) on a male based forum you will get people posting things like "are you hot", "pics or gtfo"..etc. It's only meant for a laugh

If you have an issue with your car, and need help, just search or ask. There are heaps of blokes who know nothing about cars, so being a recently single girl is irrelivant.

And most of all, have a laugh

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
