I have the R34 GTR..... I set up the SAU username many years ago when I used to have a 1977 Celica with a 1JZ-GTE. (Sorry, thought it was clear as next to Car(s) it says R34 GTR in the profile).

have a look at the m-speed r34

or the pan speed rx7

both look shithot and are fast

then look at the arc r32

Are you an industrial designer or an architect? (i.e. non-engineer) :P

That doesn't really answer the question though.

Just because older TA cars had basic aero, why does that mean the category shouldn't continue to push the boundaries in the quest for seconds?

You can only have so much power and put it to the ground, eventually you have to make up time elsewhere. Tyres, suspension, aero, etc.

Or would you rather cars still be running the same times as Tsukuba as they were 5yrs ago?

Open class is for the oe looking body, pro class should be all out.

In saying that, I don't agree with the ability for pro/am to be able to alter the suspension arm design. So many cutting in double a arm or versions of. That's getting too close to sports sedan for me.

Yeh new arms are all good, but when you start chopping the chasiss and altering the points that the arm mounts to...

Because I'm intrigued by the horrid cars, and people who spend a mil on building an evo then skip the country to avoid paying for it.

So you're a masochists who also has a penchant for drama and gossip, got it ;)

Fair points.

im all for pushing the boundaries, But if you think about it everyones just getting the same dude to do all their aero. There needs to be variation to methods in order to improve otherwise it may as well be "Andrew Brilliant pro class" If i wanted to see cars go fast id watch the radicals go around SMSP. Im there to see cars i like going fast

strapping a manta ray rear bar (suzuki s15) makes me cry inside because like current years F1 being ugly doesnt help draw a crowd. You can be pretty and still push the boundaries of speed and laptimes it just costs more.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
