when i purchased my gtr, the owners brother(owner wasnt there, everything was legit, so all good), handed my os giken twin plate(needed rebuild).

looked underneth, had tien coilovers.

trust 4inch cooler.

tuned y pipe, 3inch cat and cat back.

those were the parts i didnt know of.

did you check and see how good the ah 'mines ecu' under the back seat was, or did you just throw it out?

Tossed it ,it was not in very good condition,i think it had been there a while.

Edited by I gotta R34gtr v-spec

I bought my 34 a long time ago.. About 2 years after i bought it i went to install red bulbs behind my dash. I took the dash apart then went reaching in behind there and found some wires that seemed a bit "out of place".. So i looked up under there and followed the wires back and found a Greddy full auto turbo timer sitting in there!? hidden amongst all the other wires. All i had to do was turn it back on and mount it and boom. Free turbo timer. :D Also found a Japanese jdm game token coin like thing under my seat..

Found a 1979 20cent piece behind the roof vinyl interior of my 1981 Stanza. So I can only assume the coin was lost there while the car was on the assembly line. Still have the coin somewhere....

  • 2 months later...

Found yellow jackets tucked down the left side of my r32's boot still in there packets! (Hopefully will fit my rb20) :)

Was looking at buying rear hicas lock bar.. Had a look underneath and already had one :)

Nismo front strut bar with Nismo stamped into it (hopefully genuine.. Not sure if those are even rare..

And last but not least about $18 worth of shrappaz!

In my 33 i Found split fires, dodgy wiring in the tail lights, really old jdm gaff tape in the doors, wierd wires all through the car, a USB with the guys birth certificate license and all his tickets, jdm coins, aus coins $14 worth, Japanese rego sticker

And the classic dried up maccas chip

4 children's nursery rhyme CDs behind the dash, played that shit all day!

Shell battery from Japan? You can't buy them here.

Shell service stickers all over and in the car from Japan.

On my gf car I found a threaded head with the spark plug sitting on top and some more threaded bolts on the thermostat housing. It was a fluke it even ran.

found tanabe GF210 on my stock springs heh i knew them orange springs were weird! also found the lock nut key from previous owner's set of nuts, which he had the tyre guys smash off, thus running only 4 nuts (until i bought a new set of nuts). what a nub. it was in the compartment which had the spare tyre jack in it, i noticed something rolling around inside.

    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
    • yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
