I Went To Chapel Street On The Weekend And I Saw A Red R34. I Absolutely Fell In Love With It. Thats Where I Got The Idea From

I saw that red R34 at chapz on saturday night too.. didn't see your car though! There was also a bayside blue R34 gtt doing laps too :D

That would be great

I'm just getting all the quotes together, the cheapest one i got so far was $3000 - $3300.

If you'd be able to help me. I would appriciate it

Thanks

Just a word of advice, as a general rule quality comes at a cost so when looking at repairsresprays they cheapest quote isn't always the best quote. I had my car resprayed recently and although no doubt I could of gotten it done cheaper, the quality of the job was second to none. Just a friendly word or warning :D

Agreed upon!

get them to clarify what the quote includes... if it doesnt include the insides of the doors and door jams, sils, engine bay and boot i wouldnt bother.

Yeah I was suprised myself.

They pretty much take the whole car apart.

That includes everything. In side the doors. around the engine, boot the whole lot. JetSpeed have pretty good reputation, so I don't have to worry about them stuffing up the job.

LOL... r u serious? I suggest you ask a few more people..... I haven't heard the best things about jetspeed, especially regarding body kit fitting and spraying. Doesn't hurt to shop around to get the best deal, even more so when it's not urgent.

:D

you should check out some factory colours that have come out on the new cars. Its cheap, readily available and looks stunning on cars that they didn't come factory on. For example the new corolla baby blue with the white pearl thru it, or the corolla silver with gold pearl thru it givin it a nice champagne look.

Anyways, welcome to the forums, hope ya enjoy your stay.

Thank you i will go and have a look. I've got this red color stuck in my head though.

C how i go.

Thank you for warm welcome. I thought this site was only for guys. Didn't think it was for all the skylines owners.

Thanks for your help

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
