They lock them so no one can see their tunes, they did the same thing to my FC and Scott was able to get around it I would have expected more down low then that, you need to get someone else to tune

So how can you say you prefer one if you havent driven the other?

Maybe buy a rb20 and put a gt45 on it if your serious about it.

This is what makes it hard for me to comment, I have driven one with a big single, smaller single and a 3.2. BUT I want to drive a standard R34GTR and the next time I go to Sydney I am going to find a car yard that has one and go for a drive in it.

Don't expect a lot from a stocker Pete. You'll get out and wonder what all the fuss is about after being 'spoilt' with your own car

If I do not try, I will never know :)

About time you got out of bed :yes:

Don't do it Pete.

After my 4th or 5th variation to my fuel system I've finally come full circle back to twin in tank 044's. Its a mission to get them in there, but worth the effort.

Concealed, no mess, no fuss.

No in car fuel smell.

The only other practical option is to go with a custom under spare wheel setup with external pumps, and the standard pump as the lift/filler pump.

In boot surge tanks take up space, leak vapour, and just get in the way. Technically not legal either, as the firewall is not 100% sealed between the driver compartment and the boot like it is with the engine compartment.

Thats a worry, I thought that it is the most common setup. A continuous fuel smell would drive me nuts.

I would have thought if they are done properly there would be no fuel smell unless there was a leak of some sort :(

A few thousand dollars in Teflon lines and AN fittings with bulk heads will fix a fuel smell, but it still looks messy, and like a octopus mating with the boot of your car.

Then there is the pump noise and power consumption. So then you have to plan to add an alternator too. It never ends.

Really when you consider it, there is no good place to put a surge tank in the boot of an R34. Jack left side, attessa reservoir on the right. Under the parcel shelf is full of electronics and a battery.

044's or the smaller walbro style pumps are really the only good in tank option. You cant run the turbine pumps because they don't self prime.

The R34 has an in-tank antisurge system with a deep pickup location, and a syphon from the left side of the car that ensures the right side of the tank is always holding more fuel. It makes sense to use what is already a good design.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
