You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

There's not been any details released as yet. I've already added the rear diffuser to my order, so out of that list I think I'd add the 'Front Under Spoiler'/front diffuser, 'Side Under Spoiler'/side skirts, and 'boot lip spoiler' as they become available. I love factory parts. Wheels, coilovers and braces I'll go aftermarket.

I see!

The subtle factory add on kits usually look quite good.

And yeah, Wheels / Suspension / Strut Brace go aftermarket.

i wont be buying an 8MR.. no chance ill afford one lol

this is my dilemma... VIII's go from 20k and VIII MR's from 30k.

EOTD i'll probably go an VIII with an IX or VIII MR turbo already in it

only thing i'm thinking is that the MR may hold it's price better? i dunno

alright, probably tonight or tomorrow night good for you?

Toby, take me for a spin while you have it, pretty please?

Happy to take whoever on a spin, maybe tomorrow night.Not till late though don't normally finish up dinner till after 8:30. If its a few guys prefer it on the weekend.

Yup definately holding its price. My brother got his for about $35k five years ago. And its still in really good condition

And if 8MR's are still 30K plus its held up really well

the only difference between them is the alloy roof and turbo i think.. so kind of pointless to get an MR when you could probably get a turbo out of one for cheap..

im even considering a seven! i think the bodykits on the seven are heaps better.. and i really dont wanna mod it too much.

If you plan on modifying then no point getting an 8mr only advantage it has is an alloy roof and not paying $10k for that

$10K for an alloy roof?

What's the roof made of on the non MR Edition?

IX turbo, lower intercooler pipes, injectors, ebc, tune... 230 awkw done

coilovers rims etc... obviously

yeh, same as my thought..

7's are apparently good up to 245kw

so im thinkin of e85.. just a tad safer.

BOV, gear-knob and seats are also different... ;)

8MR has no value over an 8 for a street / track car. Spend $10k on mods for an 8.

The 6 Speed box on the > VIII models eats the VII 5 Speed is the only consideration. The gearing is far far better.

      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

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      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)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
