Kabab with cheese,

   OK What needed to be done.

Brake pads have to be Standard $1000 per pair or borrow some like I did.

Zorst & header pipe has to be standard, I bought a STD one $700 from turbo back. I can hire the STD one out to any R34 GTR owners if they get nicked by the RTA or need it for complicance $50 per week.

Suspension. I had the STD springs and sustension put in the back of the car when I bought it. I now have for sale a 500km old HKS hypre Max II for an R34 $1600.

Wheels and tyres. Need to be STD so I borrowed a set of R34'swheels and borrowed the STD size tyres $150 with all the work.

Air box borrowed the STD airbox.

On top of that the windscreen part numbers did not match up so I had to put a new STD windscreen in $400

The normal compliance stuff like fluids,  the complier looked after.

Once it was registered I had some mods done to it, he he! The Zorst, pods and wheels went back on.

Other then the 5 months it took it was easy!!!!!!!!!

Anyway, what are peoples thought on changing my log on or should I simply stay

Oz GTR97V?

Only with cheese oh come on man the works!!!

Sweet jesus thats alot of work but worth it :D It sounds like you holding onto the stock bits :D hopefully i will be contacting you about renting em ;) in the near future..

I have a spare set of stock front brake pads for any R34 GTR ~ 1/99 onward for sale if anyone needs them. Almost full meat left. $250 (save $750 :) )

They are currently just sitting around at home as I bought them in case i needed them for compliance.

Looks better in the flesh and those wheels are tough. Test drive well no not me yet although two of my mechs did today, and they both said VERY nice, which is hard for them to get excited sometimes. Will enjoy your company on the Sydney tracks next year Paul. YOu have worked hard and very happy for you. Blitz you got to get one soon.

Yeah, I currently have MADGTR on there, although Im not sure about changing the good old OzGTR. I might ask the admin people if they can simply change my name by removing the 97V off the back.

    • 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?
    • 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.
