hi all

firstly great forum lots of great reads im just a little confused about power outputs

everywhere i look i.e car yards and websites they all claim 206kw factory

question is is this a reading from the flywheel or at the wheels?

just confused as so many guys are doing mods to achieve the 200kw mark

cheers

Jarrod

cheers jetwreck

still better than a camry wagon or volvo for that matter

was looking at 7 seater cruisers and patrols till i seen the luxury, performance and style of the m35 at a fraction of the price

i think a stagea will finally allow me to feel something happen when i press the loud pedal

too many years i have been smoking people with the loud pedal ( from diesel chaf ) not speed

going to get all teary here and say i think ive fallen in love :wub:

If your not wanting to modify it go look at the PNM35's with the VQ35DE. Best bang for your buck in the station wagon market imo...and most of the parts can be locally sourced as it basically a V35 or Z33.

having driven an r33 gts-t a few years ago on the west coast of tassie i loved the power delivery of a turbo

and ummm the sound bouncing back off the rocky walls on side of road

getting excited thinking about it sorry :unsure: is that feeling common lol

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
