Got it for Free, had CRAZY colours all stripey on the screen even with no antenna plugged in, couldn't even get a picture, would cost $100 just for a Pro to look at it & yes it was heavy as all Buggery. Extremely unfortunate. :(

you can pick up decent plasma tv's in the $400 mark ish for like 45-50" size if you shop around

40k seems way too high.. i dunno something rubs me the wrong way. esp since its a v spec

Defs. I also has a feeling something not Kosher there. doesn't feel right hey!

Although not about spending $40k on a GTR rebuild, boltons, upgrades etc... I'm sure few of us on here could walk through some receipts.

Getting to 350awkws is not just new turbos and/or stock rebuild, It can be but it wont see the year out. Then if you want to drive a good car theres more to be done.

And if you want it to last you go all the way through it thoroughly.

You would have spent over $20k.

Have you done New brakes, Extended Sump, High Volume oil pump, Oil cooler and relocation kit, Quality Steering and Suspension, Interior/Exterior titbits :)

So your right. The devil is in the detail he hasn't provided.

Sorry dude for you in the poo :/ . cant rag on peeps in FS section no more.

Ps: oh and my FS in his FS has been deleted too - lol

Chrome? Is that a drugo's term :P

Fox and Chrome can go eat a dick!

Speshally seeing I'm old and started on IE so will stick with it. More intuitive.

IE8 solved alot of the response time issues and 9 has capatalised further :thumbsup:

Mind you I prefer Nokia phones over I-phones and Windows OS rather than bad apple's

mayhaps users of the other browsers just dont like secure browsers :rofl2:

In my experience, Internet Explorer is the least responsive and most resource hungry browser of all time. Runs like an absolute heap of shit anywhere I've used it ---> install Chrome ---> everything works like a dream.

This. Also Itunes also chuggs through PC usage like the whore it is. In saying that Chrome does as well. but chrome is soooo smooth

Quick question guise...

I picked the car up from the shop after getting some steering components installed and they said that I needed to keep an eye on the clutch as 'it was catching a bit high' or something along those lines. I just smiled and nodded..

Wat does that mean? I've never heard that before...

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
