Good to hear mate :) it's funny how it always turns out to be something so simple....

Except sometimes when it's just horrifically bad...like incomprehensibly f**ked hahaha

Last time my car died: 4 cracked pistons, 0-5 PSI in those. 30 PSI in 1 and 80 in the other. Cracked valves and scored cylinders. Oh and Piston rings had melted to the pistons with the tops of the pistons melted. Head had some slight damage as well. To fix this bore out block 40 thou, New forged pistons and rods, Complete head rebuild. Since i was there did a full fuel system upgrade amongst other things.

Had the car back for 7 days after an 8 month rebuild. Blew a turbo. replaced them and got new boost controller and a couple of other little things.

WHO NEEDS MONEY!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Oh and im still not done. Need to do AFMs for more POWAHHH down the track.

In saying that. After spending the money i did on it. Driving it again.... i Wouldn't change this car for the world.

Edit: Who owns a 32 GTR and gets pissed off when it costs you money. It comes with the car

I have some plumbers crack... but not much.

Im too skinny to have a good crack.

Just wait till you modify yours a bit more Eric. Comes with the territory!

Although for the record, mine's never actually died on me. Only a clutch (factory clutch down to the rivets!) failure stopped her from moving!

Better than something major and expensive like a fried ECU haha

Just replaced got a warranty on it. The ONLY things that are not covered under a warranty on my car (engine related) are the AFMs rofl. Next my gearbox will poop itself.

    • Bah! I can't see the point in custom number plates at all. I went to the rego office, fished through a box of "premium" plates (the ones that had the "not as tall" option for the front plate) and picked the one that had a 32 in it. That's the limit of the effort and cost I will put into number plates. The only plate that I'd consider paying for would be 2332, but that's not possible here because it already exists from probably 90 years ago, and it would cost a fortune to obtain it, if it were available.
    • After chasing my tail with LS results..... and cheaper than a turbo swap... How confident are you that the dyno is accurate relative to other results? How fast is the car - What MPH does it actually run? Is this similar to what people running this power would expect?
    • Hi mate I am having an identical issue with my 98 R34 GTT. The engie suddenly cuts out under load at about 3-4k, black smoke out exhaust. Almost feels like traction control kicking in. No CEL but still going to check codes later today. Car was sitting in the shed for about 5 months before hand and only idled a few times, took her out with about 1/4 tank, filled up and thats when the issues started happening.  Threw on a spare set of coils/harness and checked plugs which was no help. Recently had fuel pump/filter changed so surely thats not the issue unless condensation in fuel, I just havent had the time to drain it It's running a hi flow turbo, bosch 1000cc injectors, walbro 450L, Z32, Nistune etc... All about 2000km old.
    • I always wonder where the obsession with legal/illegal spacing on number plates in the UK comes from. Because it comes up in comments in every UK-based video I see on youtube. From my point of view all of your plates look a bit odd. Just because there are no markings whatsoever. In Australia we have the state that has to be on it. In Europe you get stamps and state logos. Yours look a bit like a throwaway draft that people then stuck with. And attached with blu tack so that it falls off at the slightest disturbance. Not trying to hate, but it's interesting how things are done in different countries. Do you have to follow a lettering convention when choosing a custom plate?
    • Hybrid sounds like a supercharger... It's half a turbo, with a belt to drive it! Oh wait, they're just called super chargers...
