have been watching this thread for a while just lurking so thought that I should say love the car, always been a fan of the er34 but alas my apprentice mechanic wages prevent this (for now). Anyway hope the tune goes well and you get to your power goal, thanks for the reading material

Cheers man. I appreciate it. I used to spend hours on car sales researching and dreaming and then finally it happened with a bit of help. I hope one day you get yours !

I dont have the new version of the ss2 but if you do one day get a bit bored of it and do want quicker response and a bit more power, im sure stao could easily "up grade it" to the new trim.. for street i dont think itl nessasery

as far as im aware its standard in new ss2(mine doesnt spin for that long :unsure: ) but i could be wrong it maybe just the extra option.. i bought mine as a old stock clearance for a steal about 8 months ago

PS - this could be the "new version" im thinking of http://www.hypergearturbos.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=72&product_id=67

-- man... id love to do an r34 brembo upgrade like the guy on that blog haha to dream! thats a hell of a r34gtt

sickdoeoccm ffndkdlcmwlqpqlwlsksmms!!! Rushed my car to my mechanic late at night. The hose to the heater matrix in the engine bay melted or ripped off. Wtf. Coolant pissing everywhere and falling on the exhaust. It was embarrassing my car was steaming all the way there.

No over heating occurred but it was still embarrassing. Minor issue. Easy fix but wrong timing. And then during the fuss this happened

New items for more flow from just jap are being fitted on as we speak pre tune.

Pretty concerned about sound and legality of cat. I'm still keeping the Nismo muffler. Not a fan of drone or mega loud exhaust off boost at low rpm. Anyone have any experience or advice?

So far I've been told to pop a resonator in between if I hate the noise. Which sounds like a good idea.

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
