New member here,

My GT-R just went through compliance and they picked up on a few things,

Drivers side CV boot worn (no big deal)

Needs another brake light on the parcel shelf

Brakes are undersized (does this mean the rotors are worn? or the size of the rotor isnt up to spec)

Headlights need adjusting and also needs 3 new wiper blades....

They said its not that bad and that most of the money will be going to the actual certs.

They also said that the rear diff is a bit tight, is this a big problem or even something that is looked over in the compliance? or are they just trying to get more money out of me.. :3some:

The money you paid for compliance should be covering those things (cv boot, brake light, headlight adjustment, wiper blades etc) as far as I remember. Only tyres aren't covered in compliance (only if the jap tyres won't pass)

Car should be ready this week, is there any section on the forums where members cars can be displayed along with mods etc...?

Still not sure if I should grab 2x HKS 2860-5's or a t04z (single should be cheaper even with manifold) 044 pump, high capacity sump, N1 oil pump, ID850 injectors, and a Link G4 Storm along with other supporting mods. car is also on a jap tune, so that needs to get sorted asap

Any ideas where I should go from here?

Just an update on the car, I got the plates alright but when i took the car from the shop, it ran really badly, had to keep a revving it a small bit just to stop it from stalling. the car was misfiring pretty badly driving down the road at 2k rpm. but after a while it went away. I thought it was just the plugs fouling as this has happened with the previous owner. I gave the car a good run (50km's) but just before home the car started to slow and it stalled on the intersection as i was turning, would have gone off the road if i didnt start it in time! when idling I give the car a small rev and it drops down to nearly stalling then picks it up again...?

Should I get new plugs for it? the afms look alright, but I'm going to convert to MAP sensors soon so would it be worth my time? the tuning place is about 4 hours drive

      Yet another clutch question

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Transmission synchros feel pretty bad at this point in my car and sometimes the clutch feels like it has an inconsistent engagement point in the pedal travel. I figure if I'm going to swap in a new transmission I may as well also put in a new clutch. Obvious candidates are ATS's pull-type twin plate carbon clutch, Nismo Super Coppermix Twin, or some organic clutch option I haven't figured out yet. I have searched this stuff to death at this point and still don't feel all that confident in making a decision. Target power is not much. ~330 kW at the wheels max. I ballpark the torque spec at 600 N-m. The stock clutch feels a little light so a little heavier is ok but I would say no more than 15-20% additional pedal effort. For some reason most clutch manufacturers want to keep this stuff a secret but the Coppermix Twin is 950 kg clamp load so I figure it can't be too much heavier than stock. The hang-up I have is some people mentioning that the clutch is very grabby which sounds like a pain. The stock clutch is almost too easy to modulate so I don't mind if it requires more precision than that but I don't want to deal with something that feels like I'm getting rear-ended at every traffic light. Also I see some mention of the release bearing carrier sizing requiring some work which sounds like something that might complicate installation? It would be good to know exactly what is needed here for a 1995 R33 GTR. The ATS clutch is supposedly the best but I've seen some complaints that they wear out easily and also slip when cold. I don't know how much of that is true but the cost is also huge compared to even the Nismo Coppermix twin plate. It's also unsprung which normally I would reject immediately but supposedly carbon clutches don't need it. The higher clamp load at 1300 kg is also a little concerning but to me more clamp load seems like it inevitably means more pedal effort and also more strain on the engine crank thrust bearings.  This is a street car and despite being a weekend car I seem to spend a lot of time crawling in severe traffic congestion with it anyways so I will gladly pay to have something that is easy to drive on and will hold the power with no unexpected headaches. I really don't want to do a clutch twice.

      Grease the poly bushes as your first order of business. Moly grease. Spanner check everything else. Inspect LCA inner bushes.

      Kakimoto Exhaust - What Do I Have?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      It's usually associated with a muffler. Often in the middle of the muffler, sometimes at an inlet. Not removable by just slipping something out. usually needs butchery (read outright replacement of the muffler). There's absolutely nothing magic about any Jap exhaust brand. Totally generic. Totally replaceable with anything else that will do the job. I've replaced the centre muffler in mine a couple of times.

      EFR Anti surge = T51R mod?

      By RB335 · Posted

      I've had a 9280, 9280's in stock form produce a bit of a whine when coming on unlike the 9180 so you may already like the turbo sound as it is.
