Im sick and tired of this shit. 2 months ago just before i sold my 32 i had someone run up the back of my car and scratch the bumper bar stripping the paint and bending the tow hook. Now i have had a r34 for 2 months now and its been hit 3 times so far. Someone reversed into my front bar and cracked the paint, they did the same thing with my rear bar and the paint is cracked now and yesterday i came back to my car after it was parked in westfields and some dickhead hit my side mirror and cracked the shit. Seriously i was parked with wide spaces in between. Sick of all these f**kwits hitting my car seriously i wish i caught someone hit and and run off i swear to god ill f**king kill them. Do you have f**kwits hitting your car and how mad does it make you?

Iv got a scratch on my rear bar.. apart from that nothing really.. no offense but its where you park your car.. stop parking in conjectured areas and it wont happen..

Even now ill walk 500 meters as long as i get a parallel park cause bumpers are easy to spray compared to dints in the door

Mate you're in Sydney, you're guaranteed to have damage to your car.

First week of getting my GT-R, front guard got scratched/dented by a retard in a shitty utility vehicle in Chatswood.

Rear bar damage, scratches and dents on guards/doors. It's bound to happen

Park next to a pillar, never park between jacked up cars or taxi looking cars.

Maybe invest in a motion activated dash cam (front and rear, expensive though).

Yeah I prefer to park away from all the tools too and walk a bit extra. Parking near pillars, wider spots or walls helps too. I go as far as getting out the passengers side due to parking the drivers side of the car so close to a wall or pillar

Out on the street single spots between driveways are the best and never overnight - had two cars hit when parked on the street overnight

You know what, call me paranoid but a few people have given us Skyline drivers and most sports car owners in general a bad label of "hoon" etc so although I don't think people go targeting us on purpose or anything, I definitely think they are less careful when parking nearing us and therefore less forgiving.

      Crank/No Start - R32 GTR Chassis with R34 RB26

      By 89GTR_VA · Posted

      Apologies for the long post, but needed somewhere to lay out the entire timeline of events and actions taken:   I've got an 89 GTR with a R34 RB in it. It's been running great all year, driven probably 500KM in the last month. It's not my daily driver, just a weekend fun car.    Build info: R34 RB26 - HKS 2.7 stroker kit, HKS adjustable cam gears, HKS turbo upgrades, Trust intercooler, R34 factory DENSO 440cc injectors, JUN chipped/tuned R32 ECU. All of this work was performed in Japan back in 2019.    Thursday 10/2/25 - It's a nice day and decided I'll drive it to work, I start it up in the garage and I notice it took a few extra cranks and sounded a bit funny. I figure maybe it was just because it was a pretty chilly morning. I pull it out into the driveway to warm up a bit before leaving. As I leave the driveway, it feels very off and sounds like a misfire. I pull it back in the garage to deal with after work and take the daily to work. I was able to diagnose it as a cylinder 5 misfire with the old spark plug test (unplugging each plug until a sound change with the engine running). I take off the whole ignition system, ignitor, plugs, spark. *Important note, it is still on the R32 ignition system with the separate ignitor system. I test each system with a multi-meter and nothing presents as a smoking gun. I put it all back together and it starts up no issue. I go ahead and order the PRP R35 ignition conversion kit. It should arrive today (10/13/25)   Friday 10/3/25 - Another nice day, car starts up great and drives great all day. Very pleased that everything seems to be OK   Sunday 10/5/25 - Decided I'll take it to play some golf, load up and drive to the course about 25 minutes away. Drives wonderful the whole way there, I pull in the parking lot and the engine completely comes to a stop. I do not recall if it sputtered at all, but just remember all of the sudden the engine was off. I roll it into a parking spot, try to crank it back on and nothing.  It'll crank and crank and not even try to start. End up getting it towed back to my house and push it up into the garage.    Items I have checked: Fuel in the tank Fuel Pump relay Fuel pump fuse  Spark Plugs & gap Coil packs Ignitor    I know the cylinders are getting fuel as the plugs smell like fuel after a start attempt. I tried spraying starter fluid into the manifold and cranking and not even a sputter.    I decided to do the live CAS test (removing the the CAS, ignition on and spinning the CAS stalk to see if the injectors pulse and spark is active). All of the injectors were pulsing and I have spark at the plug. The half-moon end of the CAS did seem very loose, I'm not sure how much play is supposed to be there, but it was more than I expected. There was no in/out play of the shaft, just the tip end that is pinned on had quite a bit of play.    CAS Play video   When I put the CAS back in, I stupidly did not re-time the engine. I know I need to do that tonight, however, I do not think it will start given it seemingly was not the issue. My plan is to do the PRP R35 coil kit and retime the engine at the same time.    I plan on ordering the Haltech Nexus Plug-in ECU once they are available again, but ideally would like to get this sorted before firing the parts cannon at it and potentially adding more variables.    Anything glaring that I am missing here, I'm a bit at a loss?

      Get it on a dyno. Get something logging Consult. Run it up and find out what is causing it.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      By BuiltNotBought · Posted

      Looking for a plenum for rb25 de+t neo  Not looking to push much power maybe 300kw at the wheels, is there much difference in flow for Freddy “Greddy style” compared to original Greddy or options like Proflow or Otaku garage?    I won’t be porting the de Neo head for now as I think it’ll be fine 280-300rwkw but appreciate the help and any experiences anyone has between them and any advice. Thanks  Looking at this plenum for now below
