Hey Maverick I did check yours out and it to appears to be in Smick condition also(Definately not a POS!) :P

I got lucky with this one, its real neat, importing is always a gamble but honestly I would have been very happy with anything that was'nt a Lemon / POS.

Heres a few pics of the motor...

Thx dood.....needs a fair bit more TLC yet until shes sparkling clean :rofl:

BTW, I take back what I said earlier in thread regarding tramlining....drove my Car last few days with factory wheels and as new tyres, did'nt tramline hardly at all.

Turns out its my Dodgy 'worn on inside' tyres that were to blame, maybe the extra width didnt help either, but whichever it currently borders on the dangerous...!

is that a 34 motor?

It's not a 34 motor. At least im pretty sure it isnt. Looks clean though, probably recent rebuild.

About tramlining - I find tramlining has everything to do with the type/wear on the tyres and very little to do with the actual width of the tyre. I've tried a set of worn 245's before and they were basically undriveable on city roads and a set of new 255's which had no detectable tramlining at all.

This turned out to be the case in mine :(

Had to use a set of Factory GTR rims to comply it, they had brand new tyres....and my car did not tramline at all :D

My tyres on my R34 GTR rims are worn on the inside quite badly and some look to have been overinflated as are worn in the middle....I'll keep driving on them for a while yet...but geez do not let go of the wheel on a 'secondary type road' or you'll be off it ! :thumbsup:

Nope...sum1 asked bout the motor being R34...u can tell it isn't as the 34 GTR has different writing on the coil-pack/spark plug cover

Nah...it ain't a 34 Motor :D

I painted it, basically to keep with the R34 theme of the car......well it has R34 wheels and I figure thats enough to start a theme :) :)

      GOT SUM's RB34

      By klutched · Posted

      Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.

      My BMW 335i

      So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.

      Gave the Mazda it's first wash, it will need some clay, a light compound, and polish polish to remove a few swirl marks, but that will be a job for when I have a full day to get my DA polisher action on

      Just did this job on my 32 with the boost doc kit. was quite simple to fit, hardest part was getting the rubber bungs back on the firewall. does anyone know how the heater will work now without the flap in the bend? Will I just have a heater on 24/7 now?
