Not a rude question at all mate

Basically the car sits there all week only to be driven on Sundays to and from the carwash.

Kim's 2001 Corolla we use every day so it seems to be a waste having a $45k car sitting at home unused. If the rear seat folded down I could piss the Rolla off and use the Skyline everyday but sadly that's not the case.

Also just paid for a block in Iluka near the beach and the new house may only fit a double garage which is tough if there are 4 cars in the family

Will have to look for something to replace both cars.

That's a tall order...Might look at one of those Rex thingys I keep blowing away.

Actually that's a thought...if anyone has a mate with a Rex or STI who wants to buy a class car put them onto me

Cheers

Chris

Sounds like you need the kind of space a wagon could provide easily. A wagon like the Stagea :D

Alternatively, evo IV/V/VI's have fold down rears, and I know how much you enjoyed test driving that Tommi Mak...

Sorry, don't mean to turn this into "Help R34 pick a new car" thread, but anything to keep you out of a wrx.

A Toymotor??????

Actually thought about getting a used Lexus IS200 ,chucking out the motor (all 114kw of it)and fitting a TT Supra motor from an import.

Trouble is I don't think their seats fold down either so would rather have the 34.

A Tommy Mak....Oh Yeah baby but about $30k too short :D

Suggestions welcome

Cheers

What about a stagea mate?

Heaps of boot space and and great to drive. Easy to make them go fast too. If you didn't sell the R34 straight away you could swap all the performance gear over and sell the 34 a little cheaper.Because it has the same neoRB25 it would be very easy and you could put one of those R34 front kits on it.

If you get 45k for the red one you might nab a 97 Autech version at auction, mind you getting the plate for it would be very hard, privately.

I think a friend of mine has just got the plate for them at his family 'yard' they finished the RAWS a while ago too. I am waiting for a review in my salary package so I can sell the 33 and buy a stagea or a 34. If you are still looking by the time I get round to seeing him again I'll let you know what they cost.

Best thing I can say about the styling is you can't see how ugly they are when you're sitting in it :mad:  

Sorry IMHO

Fair enough.

But, the fold down seat will mean you must make a sacrifice. You will be driving a car that looks pug ugly next to your very sexy 34 no matter which model you chose. I think you have become a bit spoilt. :)

Well if you got the R34 kit for the front then it would only look like a volvo from the back (where your challengers will feel even more embarrased when you beat them). :P

You right about sitting in them, if you do most of the driving you will be blissfully un-aware of the volvo-ness.

Corolla AE86? Do the Seats fold down there?

Chaser!

Cosmo (oh baby)!

Integra Type-R

Evo anything.

Stagea

RS6

Raliart Magna

Sti

The other thing you may not have looked into is seeing how much it would cost to get the seats modified to fold forward? I am sure it would be quite easy and inexpensive. It may be harder to make it split fold, but you could have the entire thing fold forward.

Please think about it.

Greg. :devfu:

and easier to get into the 13's than a skyline cause of its lack of weight.

frontmount, 3" zorst all the way, remap ecu and 15psi and your 13.6's easy

seen it done and its still looks stock

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
