jdmst forum, where they do nothing but hellaflush, meet in carparks and play with remote control cars.

Good job, save up for a real car not some homo honda with stupid offset wheels and camber that does nothing but ruin the car

Well, I currently drive a civic but have done NOTHING to it, stock as a rock - seriously what's the point? JDM is so....pointless.

Anyway. anyone know why 2000 or 2001 black GTTs (manual) are so hard to find? and, say, can anyone give me a rough estimate of how much a total stage 1 tune as specified here, will cost assuming I have a stock car? help appreciated and thanks in advance!

including ecu, quite a bit - examples;

exhaust may be $600-1k

intake - fark that, leave it as stock box but change filter to something decent. $100

boost - go with an electronic boost controller, can probably get one for $300 or so

ECU - anywhere from 1-2k for ECU, then tuning time.

all in all, not cheap.

I've got a 33 gtst with exhaust, new panel filter and boost controller on 10psi and i'm running 190rwkw at full song, albeit with massive rich and retard in the middle (goes nuts once it's past that though). installing SAFC to smooth that out.

By no means is it the quickest car out there, but for the road, it's more than enough - you wanna stay on the good side of the law.

I like you already, just like my V6 accord, smashes little rice boys in their worked Civics, Integras ra ra ra.. I just leave it stock, it's great the way it is.. I have my fridge, I mean R33 for the mods

Fark that.

Chop springs.

Speed holes diffuser rear bumper.

Sticker bombed panels.

Stanced.

Then hardpark that farker.

@cpd thanks for that, easily another 2k on top of the car + any other things which need fixing up at the time of purchase. damn. better hope I find a cheap one/one that doesn't need too much fixing!

@MBS206 funnily enough, after deciding I wanted a 34, tried to find my copy of GT5 just to have some fun and......cant find it. can't even practice. sad.

@b00bs hahahaha. can't wait to get my boat. will be bigger than your fridge!

@ tai1or made - yeah....don't really understand much of what you said.

    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.  
    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
