love what your doing with the car. i don't get the steering wheel though, you were talking about liking the impul seats because they blend in with the interior, and then want to put the loudest steering wheel iv ever seen! But its your car. Those wheels do look sexy

Just go a Momo steering wheel?

Look way better than the S1 or S2 C34 / Skyline, plus very comfy on the hands

seen here in a stagea

I bought a front mount intercooler but im not gonna use it, i think im gonna get a new return flow.

just not sure weather i should go silver or the stealth look an go black...hmmm

Edited by GH05T

is it common for the stageas to have crap reception?

the new radio can actually use the fm band but with the antenna....actually where is the antenna?

i need to get a much better signal some how?

It's in the back 2 side windows. I came across this problem also but still haven't solved it. Think I might get a standard antana and hide it under the carpet, I did this in one of my old hot rods and worked a treat. If anyone has a better idea I would love to hear it.

Stags should have great FM reception - sounds like the power for the antennae is not connected up, mine was like that when I bought it.

This post has it pictured:

Mine was not that colour but in the same location snipped it and it and low and behold the radio came back :)

sick, i will get on it.
planning to get a decent little sound system going now, just simple alpine gear.
4X R-type speakers

10" sub in a sealed box for good kick

digital amp to run it...should make me happy

also i finally fixed up my dodgy battery clamp....i mean dodgy:

anyway, i have a larger battery so bought a larger battery clamp, where the hell do i hook the rods up to? the front side has a bracket with hole but the rear dosnt, i have hooked it up to a bracket under the fuse box but its not right. i think im missing something?

also pick for funzies

Dam you got more pics of your car over the last few pages than I have ever taken of mine lol ... Looking very nice:) any power mods planed bet ya can't help your self :) you going on Ben Simpson memorial cruise,

P.s you should buy my s2 big wing for ya car already white and all

i didn't like the big wing, its starting to grow on me, along with a whole heap of body mods, but yes i will be doing some basic power mods.

buying a nistune, bigger fuel pump and some other supporting mods, looking into a new hyper-gear turbo,FMintercooler and get it tuned for simple acceptable power, nothing crazy as its my daily.

Hey Gho5t,
Your ride's looking awesome! Wheels are very flush and the eyelids look mad.
I need to ask a question... Where in Perth did you manage to find the wheels?!
Ive been wanting this style wheel for a few months now i cant seem to locate a source.There's no Varrstoen dealers here (Perth) and im trying avoid the ebay sales if i can.

    • sold listed as a Tomei LSD 1.5 Way For 1998+ Nissan Skyline ER34 25GT RB25DE w/Open R200 https://www.ebay.com/itm/174006114594?campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms=&campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=71883f2ccc571356e0a757bc7adfdde2&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms= it went in like butter all gears, alignment, back lash etc, rotation and clearances correct, and if rolling all rotates smooth and free when coasting down road , clutch in or out over 10 mph smooth... its the binding, clunking and jerking from a stop that is most concerning, also seems like its going to tear the tires off in 10 miles of normal road driving. 
    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
