For my P's.

I've just swapped my r33 gts-t (1994, 190,000k, bolt on mods) for a stock white 1998 r34 GT (90,000k with just exhaust system)

but I was thinking, would it be better to sell the r34 and buy a s15 or is the r34 better?

You'd be better off going with something like an S2000, as that was designed to be a high-revving NA monster.

Then once you're off P's, get an S15 turbo.

    • Quite right, typing without checking, it is an 023 which was effectively the replacement for 040 (not that I could find either of them on the Bosch motorsport AU site), and it has a mesh inlet at the bottom of the pump rather than a separate filter
    • Hmm. I should have thought of the clutch bleeding issue. It should be #1 thought for "can't select gears". As to "sounds like the top".....have you actually gone out with the stethoscope and tried to pin it down any more than that? And, buy or borrow a timing light, and set the timing properly.
    • I donโ€™t really have any ideas how to set the timing on the CAS ๐Ÿ˜‚, sounds like the top, sounds like it maybe misfiring as well as ticking,ย  got the box sorted ๐Ÿ˜Œ, must of been a air bubble on the clutch side
    • Use a 2' length of hose (that's 2 foot, not 2 inches) as a stethoscope to localise the source of the ticking. From cam covers? From exhaust or turbo manifold gasket? From injectors? From lower down in the engine? Etc. Use a timing light to set the timing. Put Redline Lightweight Shockproof in the box. It's not the very best thing for the box, but it will take a box that refuses to engage a gear with other oil, and make it engage a gear. I had to put it in when I installed the R33 box I have in my car. It would not select ANY gear when running. Smurf jizz made it work. That was >10 years ago and I still use it. I'm stuck with it now. Failing that - rebuild the box.
    • Well done Duncan. The fuel tank bulkhead lid is also in great condition (some of mine were stuffed). These are now out of production and good ones like that are becoming hard to come by.
