Sigh. There was nothing wrong with the translation in the way most people would've done it. When they were talking about boring it out from 1.6 to 1.8, that was correct. The problem was when he said "V6", the translator accidentally took into account that a Japanese person was saying that. What Toru was saying was actually "B6" which is the engine code for the Miata. Unfortunately, because Japos don't say V really well, when they usually try, they end up saying B instead. Probably not paying any attention or knowing what the guy was talking about, the translator mistook that for V6, since that is a fairly common term used when dealing with cars. So it's not really the translator's fault, and this could have only been properly translated by someone that knew the engine code for the Miata. In any case, this is my first post, and I joined the forum to correct this mistake.

Keep watching http://www.ide-fansubs.net, in my opinion they have the best quality of the 4th stage episodes.

I do have a torrent file for episodes 5 and 6 at home, but they arn't in the best of quality and the subbing is way below average. but you can still follow it.

If you want it to I can PM it to you when I get home tonight.

Torrents are the name of files that are used to download files from the Bit Torrent network.

Bit Torrent is a P2P network similar to eDonkey/eMule, Kazza. etc.

Go to http://www.bittorrent.com/ and read the Introduction there for more information on Bit Torrent.

as some of you may know I'm the proud owner of a aussie built AE86. Soon to be gutted n restored (bought original trueno seats for $150 for the pair :wave: and the back seat was $100). Currently trying to source a 4AGZE engine. Next will be modifying the suspension setup, for a bit of amature dori dori... then getting the trueno nose and maybe fibreglass/CF bonnet (failing that straight fibreglass bonnet). Then I'll try to get it to look as close as possible to the AE86 in Initial D :wave: I'll probably sell it as a replica or weekend drifeter.

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
