That was the "rice filler" episode as the car didn't have any mechanical issues

It seems to be. They put a V mount radiator and cooler in and a power FC. No boost or anything. Now they are wrapping it in snake skin vinyl to match the ruined wheels.

Biggest face palm for me was the claim that there was only 35hp lost between engine and wheels.

Haha. I struggle with keeping up. :(

Yep, everything's fast paced, I'm sure you didn't know they did a r33.

It's slightly less hilarious than that 7.

I did see the r33. I wasn't as repulsed. Usually it's a good show (I like seeing no bullshit mechanics which Edd shows.)

Yep, it isn't that bad of a show. It could get cringely hilarious when they do something to a car.

I love how Mike shakes the hand of someone else, my brother and I loved to mimic him.

Mike is just so irritating. I'd hate to buy a car from them and then see it on the show!

And while he's saying 'I gotta add the value' that shit is hilarious.

SHUT UP MIKE!

My brother in law throws in an estimated labour cost. Not very profitable now, huh?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
