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

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
