Looks pretty clean Adam, not sure about the shopping list on the door as it may attract unwanted police attention for mods but if you like it then its all good :)

Plenty of cars around NSW and certainly around Sydney, check the events section for any cruises etc

Oh and if you plan on sticking around, sign up as a member with SAU NSW as its a good thing to have when events etc come up (Like the SAU Nats in November)

To be honest i want the stickers gone and the wheels, but there were a few stickers on the back window that took sooo long to take off, so looking at the shopping list every single letter needs to be peeled off.

Any tips on that? And do you think i would have any luck selling those rims so i could buy something nice?

Thanks for the welcomes.

Spending a long time going through the 100 pages of wheel fitment sizes yikes!!!

Probably a heat gun or leave it in the sun for a while will help! NO blades or anything to wreck your paint!

GOOD call on the wheels too, what sort of look do you want? Are you into performance and handling or simply chasing looks? It will alter your options :)

Yea im not for bling. Loving the GTR wheels but not the price tag..... Also has rego due next month. The 350z wheels are cheap as chips and look ok.......

But im not sure, dont know i could stretch for rays or work wheels as nice as they would be.

At the moment with the car i want to fix replace any broken worn stuff before mods.

The centre console trim, vents door handles were all sprayed white and looked terrible so i went to a wreckers and just replaced all thoses bits.

Sounds like youve saved the poor car from its embarrassing stunt as a F&F stunt double :P

GTR rims look good, suit 32GTR's better than ours but I always wanted a set in black for track days etc!!

For cheap wheels you have the Rota/Varstoen (can't remember spelling) but they are imitations of name brand rims, could be an option until you save for a nice set down the track?

Cool i will keep an eye out for those brands, and i feel i am saving the poor old girl.

You should see the front mount return pipe, it travels across under the car!!!!!!

It scrapes on everything sooo dodgy poor thing.

Just got a Blitz return flow to replace all the dodgyness and use the stock holes pipes.

Haha the R34 is tough as nails..... I thrashed mine for 3 years before deciding to upgrade to where I am now.... Loved it!

Come to Texi, rip a skid, giggle like a schoolgirl and learn that the car you just got is the best thing in your life :D trust me, you'll smile!

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
