I need to install a double din head unit, speakers in the front and back, a sub and 2 amps, anyone know anyone/place that installs all that for a good price and does a good job?

I asked jb hifi how much to install all that and they said $650, even i know thats a rip off.

f**k that for a joke. $200 is a metropolitan tow, assuming you even need one once a year lol

applies to every car you drive though, so if you're in a mate's car....

or if you're like me, leaving them headlights on ever so often.....

I agree. Biggest rip. its for people who dont know how to change a flat, jump start or cant stsrt tge car when its flooded. Other than that, its a tow from regional areas.

Also, can use for other cars ONLY if you upgrade cover to a higher level. Which was quite pricey... I got missurs to upgrade for 1 month when we drove to NSW, then downgrade.

You've driven mine, at 270rwkw it only just hangs on to 2nd gear with quality 265 tyres and the 1.5 way. E85 powered turbos come on fast and strong; you'll definitely want those 285s! I'm still very happy with my power for a street car; no desire to upgrade or change it.

That being said, a good right foot controls how much boost you get, so you can always go all out on the tune (within the limits of the clutch) and train that foot. Are you going to have a separate 98 tune or is yours a flex tune?

Gearbox tolerance for power is a piece of string...plenty of people pushing your power levels through these boxes safely; they handle a lot. Others can break the a box with standard power. This is where not so grippy tyres and a soft clutch are your best friends.

This... With 290rwkw @ 1.4ton on 98 I ended up ditching e85 for street duties as it had more than enough.

e85 only for special occasions lol

If only this one wasn't nearly 5k over-priced. Has D1R's with it tho.

that looks dodgy as, why not even wash a car prior to posting pics for sale? dirty as engine bay, why need 3 air fresheners

plus 13500

  • Like 1

350 minimum.

Yeah went in for a tune on 98, came out of the shop with a e85 tune lol

Yeah might just end up using the 98 map mostly if its too much power for me

your 98 map will be spastic anyway lol

my issue was cruises etc, and that I was using manildra e85 which is only available from one place.

If I go e85 again it'll be united

EOTD they are light cars, and as such 300rwkw is a LOT for street.

they don't actually need 370rwkw just to move them like leigh's cruise liner :P

Yes will be interesting.

On the old turbo i got bored quickly on 280rwkw.

Also an issue with the old turbo on the track was the powerband, sure it came on fullboost at 4,000rpm but then it would run out of puff at 6,000.

New Turbo should give a much wider powerband of 4,500 rpm to 8,000 rpm

Will have to take on leigh from a roll on the new setup once its finished :D

Bitch plz, put me on a hub dyno I'll be making 500rwkw trollface.jpg (nah but srs "430rwkw supra" made less than mine at a certain dyno day.. didn't crack 350 at chasers)

Bring it on! definitely more chance on a roll though that's for sure I've gone my brother a few times from low speed I'm gone by the time he boosts or he just hits boost and wheel spin city cos of the light weight 33 :P even with AD08s it just skates in 2nd sometimes the extra weight helps just squats the car down and grips.

Ofcourse we shall be doing this in a legal environment / on the strip :) but yea I'd imagine you'd have me on roll if dat power is legit

Gooby pls... I said brake boost.. he'll be on boost before you hit the loud pedal and your taxi just be a dot in his rearview mirror.

Gooby pls, propper 1/4 race from the line :)

My brothers got a GT35something in his, thing don't make boost until 6000rpm!

your brother isn't tony...

4500 - 8000k

you will lose - then be fined for fog lights

face it

Yeah what Hamish said. Im making full boost ~22psi at 4,500 rpm

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • 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.
