no1 has spotted a gunmetal R34 GTR yet?

new number plate (next week) is GTR 034

$170 once off payment personalised plate, lucky no1 has it yet

:(

seen a black one (r34 gtr) driving along O.G. Rd in the mornings a couple times on my way to work. Interesting its number plate is GTR 34 (two lines, 'GTR' on top with '34' underneath).

Congrats on the lucky numberplate.

I want personalised plates on my stag but dont want to pay every year - still trying to think up a good "name" lol :)

Was driving on west terrace yesterday night at about 12.30am. Saw a nice wide body EVO (not sure it was EVO or EVO-want-to-be VII or VIII) dashed by. Nicely lowered and the body kit looked awesome!! Saw its back only thou. So, I thought of stepping on my pedal and have some fun with the EVO since I was alone in the car, and just the second before I stepped on my pedal, I saw a white holden with a big antenna passed by! Wasn't sure that it was an undercover cop or not. So, I didn't gamble! Just continue with my lonesome ride back home....lol ;)

Anyway, just out of interest, are we able to smoke the EVOs? or I'm just being too ambitious? :P

Hahaha madaz that happened to us once in the hills on a cruise. We had 12 cars flying round this corner and these undercover cops came round it the other way - eyes and mouths both wide open in shock - everyone saw it and started going harder just in case!

I'm sure you're already aware but I'll just post this for the benefit of everyone reading...

Be careful driving through the hills as they are now putting fixed speed cameras on most roads in the hills. There have been cameras set up (camouflaged as well so you may not see them) on gorge rd for a while and they are installing them on many roads in the hills...

its unfortunate because these roads can be quite fun but apparently its because of the number of fatal motorbike accidents on these roads so from that perspective I guess its probably a necessary measure. :P

Actually the cameras were setup because motorcyclists have been the biggest speeding offenders in those parts of the hills but, I agree its a necessary preventive measure to reduce accidents.

ok GTR 34 is a custom plate, u'd have to pay yearly on that plate

to get personalised plate for the stag, u'd need 6 digits

eg. ABC 123, ABCD 12, ABCDE 1 or AB 1234, A 12345

letters and numbers have to be separate, u cant mix, thats why its cheaper to pay

mine's GTR 034

yeah i know - didn't realise you could vary the amount of letters vs numbers. I previously thought you had to have 4 letters and 2 numbers and in that order...

Its interesting that STAGEA can technically be written as all numbers (574634 - using some imagination) - and a pity that STAG34 had been taken when i first registered it here. :action-smiley-069:

not in a hurry but thanks for clearing up the letters/numbers details there :D

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
