The pic of Pete jamming a chilli dog or whatever up his nose is what he looked like before the build. Now he looks like this. Let this be a lesson to us to never modify cars.

Hi Bro, go to bed, no more wine for you today, hic hic :/

I was thinking of getting married again, I do not need to, I can be pissed on, harassed and tormented from the blokes on SAU and it costs me nothing, now that is much cheaper than the few $s I spent on the 34 , SO :cheers:

No.

*roadbase*

You have to get your finger out and stuff the 88 into the whale, then when I finish this shit you can take me for a run to show me what a good car runs like, maybe we can get someone else to drive it , to give me a better idea :)

Ha ha. You are a crack up. At least we have the same views on marriage anyway. That must count for something.

why you want bottom end so much pete? you got such a good engine build and revs to 8000rpm why not just bolt something that would kick ass from 4000rpm onward like a GTX35 cause the 3.2L should be fine as is for bottom end, then you could go to track and use 450kw's to have your fun...

I know it runs hard and I enjoy it, even when it was playing up, it was still fun to drive.

Some of you blokes may not understand but it took me a long time to get used of the car sounding like a bumble Bee , it was strange , even annoying when you had to go to 6000rpm before anything happened.

I have never done track or hill climb, I now know once these cars get going they keep going but to get the most out of a high HP skyline you need to keep the revs high or if you want to have a bit of local fun , drop it at 7000rpm and that is not a good look coming out of Woollies .

I want this car to get going ASAP , please do not say get a V8 or V12 , I have had a V12, V8 and a V6, even a 911, I like my 34, I like a stick, I like the way it feels when I drive it, I like the look of it , I like sitting in it and I will get it to do what makes me happy :)

Try punting a 450kw street GTR around a track and let me know how that works out for you, I have that much power and have tried it, not a fun experience :/

    • For anyone who finds this via a search  An s14 alternator connector and Silvia Fusebox/350z headlight connector can be used. Get the non pigtail version of the alternator connector so you can use 12 gauge wire for the pump.    I am using  https://ebay.us/m/ToEEmM And https://conceptzperformance.com/czp-xenonhid-headlight-connector-w-pigtails-8-pin-male-nissan-350z-03-08-z33-or-jdm-fusebox-for-silvia-s14-czp-26060-m-8pin_p_19166.php    
    • Meh, I think we're well into a new era of 90s JDM car. The days when spare engines and parts were cheap and plentiful are long gone. Therefore the YOLO approach is now massively difficult to justify, use and maintain. One should start to ponder whether an 800HP build is really justified, using stock parts. My thoughts? If you like/love the car and want to keep it and don't want to ruin yet another one, then be discrete about how much you ask from the stock parts. A 5 or 600 HP build is still a very fast car. If you want to go silly, have to have the 1000HP territory, then just drop all your cash, buy billet everything (or PRP cast block, etc etc) and use a bigger/more modern gearbag, and put a massive retrofit diff and axles into it. If you ruin any of those things then you're either ham fisted and deserve it, or you're pushing waaaay too far for the stock stuff anyway. The (presumably) young guys who are buying 30-35 year old busted arse Jap refugees and thinking they can live the life that was lived by others 20 years ago are deluded. Expectations need to be adjusted somewhat.
    • Just don’t be silly enough to think it’ll never happen either 
    • I take it that you bought the centre to suit the GTR axles? As in there was a plan, not just somehow lucky that it worked? It all looks excellent, by the way.
    • New engine block time. Up to you whether you want to keep going down this road with this project. Unfortunately a lot of these cars are like this. The road to getting these cars into decent shape is long and not fun for reasons that you're discovering.
