Lil_Bobby_260

gentlemans law champ. Ask urself - why would all japanese performance cars produced by nissan toyota honda etc all run exactly 206kw? truth is - they dont!

nismo RS4....? details??? Looks nice! I got mine cos they look nice and are something different... quick... and wont have to sell it when the missus is wanting family.

and with that thar video, i wasted a lil bit of my download limit... that i will never get back... til next calender month... Holy thread hijack batman. Mybad, micah.

:-( yeah.. ahh know... but i'll put off the inevitable as long as possible. Monthly oil change, decent fuel, and try to keep the crazy driving to a minimum. The 8,000RPM redline... do you really need to rev it up in that range micah? how does yours go?

haha yes... /o/ is what i meant....

holy crap thats gonna be one to watch out for... if i manage to bust my 26 i'd love to look into that option. I do wonder whats involved tho, especially with mating up the gearbox and clearance for the front shafts etc. I guess if i blow it and do the VH41/45 option id go RWD. See brenten - the possibilities are endless!

4chan is where you wanna /b/ :-)

haha lol @ beers and seriousness... cos thats a common combination... :-)

i wonder how long itll be before someones engine shits itself and they decide to go with the 4.5L nissan V8? Thatd be different... Back on topic - get one

+1. Most of us have learnt at least a thing or two from him.

ok so my mum helped with the math....

technically, every time you turn a corner, all four wheels travel slightly different distances. How do the clutch packs deal with that? Sounds wierd that seeing as theyre going different speeds anyway that a difference in diameter would cause cornering issues... For long term issues tho, i nutted this out - this is my reasoning as to why something that seems so inconsequential can cause dramas - A difference of 10mm in rolling diameter (Say 660mm front and a 650mm) rolling diameter rear tyre is a different of 31.42mm difference in distance travelled per rotation. Given that each rotation of a 650mm diameter tyre is about 2050mm, your larger tyre would rotate about 65 times every time your smaller one does 66times. So your larger tyre will have rotated one less time than your smaller one every 133 metres. If you do 1000 km a month, so 12,000km a year, then its a matter of your clutch packs coping with a difference of 90225 rotation difference every year. Thats a lot of wear and tear on your clutch packs, from a difference of 10mm. if you have 225 tyres with 40 section, and 225s with 45 section, your difference in diameter will be 22.5mm (45% of 225 - 40% of 225, then multipliy it by two as we're dealing with diameter, not radius), so double the above figure. More than 180,000 times is what ur gonna get. Hope that A) that makes sense and that B) it is correct!! Bobbeh

can pick up tidy RSfour Dayz editions for 12k nowadays. How much do you think you'll be spending on the stagea for the initial purchase, brenten? Thank you brycey, thank you haha... and inaugust when i can DRIVE the bastard i'll show you why lol. How much are you selling urs for?

oh yeah... 260RS is king...

dude... seriously... just get one. You have got this far, and just need pushing over the edge into the act of picking one that suits your needs and lifestyle and budget, and BUYING it!!!! There is a stagea to suit every purpose - luxury models (prime edition etc) base model RSfours, series 2 in manual, auto, or tiptronic auto, 4wd or rear wheel drive, 2.5L turbo or 2.6L twin turbo, sunroofs or none, body kit (autech, nismo, dayz) or none, pick one up pre modded or DIY your own car.

i like the red one!! Looks like it would be more suited to a 2015 release date... Second silver one looks like an audi... White one looks a bit too 4WD. Red FTW.

Autobarn. In the performance section :-)

Thats how id be doing it. Looks neater, its out of the way, doesnt attract unwanted attention... im not a fan of dash mounted guages...

and so are the vandals...

feel for you man... you didnt seem too thrilled today! Id say it was just a random thing that a couple of kids did as they were walking home, i doubt your car was targeted. Good thing about that is that they probably go past frequently enough that you will probably see em go past agian at some stage. So if you see a couple of kids go past, knock em out and go through their bags. If you find a slingshot, tie em to a tree and use it...

again - sonofabitch.... would love to ave 300kmh on my dials

whats ur budget? have a look at the silver 260RS on J-spec for $25k landed and complied. Depends on what you want as an end product - what factors are you looking for in a car? all cars have their good points, but doesnt mean they will all suit you. I got a 260RS as they can be built into fairly formidable vehicles power-wise with just light mods, but are still very spacious, luxurious, comfortable and practical, in a fantastic, tough looking package.

haha no kidding... pretty aware of what he meant, we all just went along calling htem clocks for his own sake methinks... hard to read a analogue clock thats spinning at 9000rpm, or 320kph, so we assumed (corectly) he meant guages, and decided that rather than correct him, we'd just carry on lol

there is a group buy thread for custom clocks - have a look at that Jorn, and see what you think!

id give my middle nut for roof rack strips and bonnet vent....
