People take your advice on modifying cars?

Everyone bagging RE, meanwhile my old engine is still going strong

oh so they must be good then... because 1 person said so

blah_blah got full GTR kit + full spray.. too clean to track now. if you wanted mechanical + exterior mods, should have bought someone else's package IMO. especially if you're on a budget.

I still tracked it though :thumbsup:

i'd always heard good things from RE back in the early days. I think 2010 onwards the most common lunch turned from sandwiches to pho/noodles and the average age of employee turned to under 23.

new worst thread on SAU: http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/460737-z-tune-inspired-r34-project/

R34 GTR with 15 pages in 2 weeks of endless questions and indecisiveness.

made worse with the countless threads with the OP asking about purchasing a R34GTR

Have never seen that thread but already knew who it was gonna be before I opened it. Old mate was just as indecisive buying the thing in the first place.

I said my car/engine is still going strong... Didn't really take that long to build either, unlike all the cocksuckers that you guys seem to pay for a job that seem to work on it whenever they feel like it..

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
