Nitto state that it is made from billet metal even it is made in China the engineering would be top notch.

JE pistons would piss me off with the piston slap while cold. bugger that.

my Tomei pistons are silent all of the time. Get a tome 2.8 kit

I think you would find that if Nitto has the Strokers made in China they would have a Quality control "Nitto company man" over seeing the quality and they would be of the same quality as if, Made in Japan.

The trouble having things built in Asia , is quality control , as they will try and make things cheaper if they can get away with it, If you want the quality to stay at 100% you need a man on the floor to oversee production.

I wouldn't think so. It would be more like they just inspect the parts when a shipment arrives and so they are good to sell. Would be the exact same process for everyone else too.

In saying that the quality of all the china made parts these days is exceptionally good. Its getting hard to fault it.

Michael , I dealt with Japanese and Taiwanese manufactures that had products and parts being made in China and they would have been much smaller companies than Nitto and 2 out of 6 of them had a bloke in China full time and the others did what I did and my business was small/tinny and I had a bloke there that would go to the different companies and check everything before being shipped, you maybe right, but ??

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
