I had one in front of my 25 box and it didn't break the box, more 2nd gear clutch drops and stabs than I can count. Aslong as you don't have too much traction, you shouldn't really be breaking things.

When I put new centres in old housings, I pay my diff guy a couple of hundred bucks to set it up.

I'll be in Margaret River shooting people then

Well if you know what it's like being sideways with an open centre diff, you will be pleasantly surprised with the LSD. It will be much more predictable and controllable and won't try to kill you when you back off the gas or feather it (i.e. it won't drop to one wheel and try to throw you in to the kerb).

Expect big smokey burnouts. Srsly though, you need to get it out on a skidpan and learn your car before you kill yourself and/or someone else. 2500rpm stall isn't very big (the one in my wagon is 2350rpm and I think a 34GTT is 3000rpm), basically it will feel a bit like a clutch slipping until it gets to 2500rpm, then depending on engine/turbo setup, it sounds like it will most likely torch the tyres.

The mrs has a "raincoat" for her camera, she tried using it to protect against paint spray but it's too hot in summer so she only pulls it out when it's going to rain.

Everything I've seen in regards to Neos is that stock injectors should be good for ~240wkw.. I'd like to go as far as I can without changing injectors (rather spend those $_$ on the 32). I've maxed the stock afm already and have wired in a z32 ready for the ECU swap. But yeah, do the fuel pump at the same time as the afm and injectors then go back for a tune What ECU are you using?

Good thing I didn't get that container full of indicators in then

Cheers!

Awesome! Will make the mrs read the above

I reckon your fuel pump is dying and that's why you're running out of fuel up top.. I'm running 15psi through my highflow, my duty cycle doesn't go over 90% and that's still rich as hell, no idea what power it is making though, somewhere around 300rwhp at a guess. Will be ripping the Haltech out real soon and fitting the NIStune board I have sitting here, will have a better idea then. P.S. +1 for Andrew

As far as intercoolers go.. what about an R34 SMIC mounted somewhere between the front and back.. maybe in the boot with a little duct?

The only times I have had connection issues and dropouts is with a particular serial>USB converter, my other converter works fine and when I go straight to the serial port on the carpc it's also fine. +1 to find another tuner.. he's probably looking to sell you an old Link he has on the shelf.

+1 And to fit that vent you're going to have to pull the head off, I wouldn't be drilling/tapping the head while it is on the engine and if you do want to try that, you'll need to pull the engine out anyway. So if the head is off, might aswell fit some restrictors to the block My understanding is that the "vent" from the back of the head gives the gasses an alternative path instead of trying to push up against the oil flow in the factory returns. The vent AIDS the draining of oil through the factory drains. As jangles said, whether the "vent" goes to the sump or an intermediate catch can, it effectively does the same thing.

Are you using a serial>USB adapter?

Yeah sorry mate, johnnyt, PM me if you want to discuss further

I learnt that lesson when I airhorned some junkie bitch that was tailgating me.. I pulled over to let her go past and gave her a earful of airhorns as she got level with my bonnet.. as I pulled back out behind her, she proceded to open her door and hang most of the way out while hurling abuse back at me.. this was in the right hand lane on Guildford Rd in pretty heavy traffic, she nearly had many head-ons and I decided it was safer to drop back a couple of hundred metres and grab the left lane. Bitch was waiting for me in the turning lane at East Pde, I could see she was watching her mirrors and when I approached down the hill she went to get out.. I went to give her some more airhorn love as I passed but I had melted to the fuse with the previous loving I'm always wary of people like that as we've had a junkie-half-native bitch get out of her car and have a swipe with a box cutter before, ahh Northbridge.. good times

I had a collar but sold it as I've decided to go a different way. I want the snout welded up and machined back to suit my oil pump gears with my specified clearance.

Your distinct lack of emoticons makes it hard to tell I actually changed diff ratios because it didn't rev.. lost ~2000rpm in each gear so changed from 4.3:1 to 3.9:1 and picked up speed in each gear again. Like TiTs said, it made boostwell early, I think it was actually making positive airflow at idle (not pressure, flow). I had to tighten the bov right up to stop it leaking at idle.. you would think that a leak like that would be a VACUUM leak.. sucking air in.. but it was pushing air out! IMO an RB30DET with an RB25 turbo (with OP6 rear, wouldn't choke up by 5800rpm) is how the R32GTSt should have been released from the factory! The inspector that passed it over the pits was well impressed

Best off using the housing in your car and swapping the centre, if it's an R200 it should bolt right in but you may need halfshafts/axles to suit that centre. In my 32gtst, I know the S13 housing bolted right in. Don't know about R33's, S14 might bolt in? When changing ratios though, you need the CROWN WHEEL and the PINION GEAR. Find a diff place to put them in your current centre in your current housing. As far as axles go, I think the S13 had fewer splines than the R32 but I got new halfshafts to suit with the Nismo centre. GTR's axles are thicker and thus have more splines, won't fit in to a GTSt centre and GTR's have a 6x1 bolt pattern on the axle, GTSt's mostly have 5x1 and S13's mostly have 3x2. I just put the old VLSD out of the 32gtst in to my Stagea to replace the standard open centre. What I discovered was that the open centre halfshafts were smaller than the VLSD, luckily they both still used the same 5x1 bolt pattern. So the 32gtst centre and halfshafts fit in to the Stageas open centre housing and I kept the original Stagea ratios (because it's 4WD).

If it was to be a MX-5 looking car then I'd have to go for the Bullet Roadster.. The supercharged version of course

It will make me smell you better.. might get me a payrise too if it means I can get my nose further up the bosses ass!

Yeah nose extension

I would give everything to Ranch but he won't weld my crank up Have heard many good reports though and he is my pick for the rest of the work

R32GTSt manual is 4.3:1 I think you can get some pretty short ratios out of Nissan Serenas
