god its going to feel sooo sweet leaving ur ass on the starting line :woot:

hah! this is only a test one in 1.6mm jsut to see if the design is correct (hadnt tested it) and then i can go to 10mm...oh and i dont have my sump back yet :)

i'll even flick it over to 2WD to give u a slight chance andy :woot:

Are you talking about drags?? Because that is truely for the gheys..

hrm.... what do you guys think of toyota aristos?

i sat in one the other day, and must admit, i was very impressed with the build quality, extras, options etc. I haven't actually driven one yet, and i realise that they're no skyline in terms of handling etc, but my focus is sort of shifting these days... i don't necessarily want to go as fast/as fast around corners any more... i want a more 'comfy' ride, but still have a bit of power (the 2JZ-GTE would deliver that) and they're a lot of car for the money they're commanding!

they arent even that bad around corners! I think stock for stock they were about 3 seconds slower than the fast bracket, all of wich had almost identical times eg GTR, RX7, NSX and TT Supra, around motegi when BMI tested them! I would buy one :)

ORLY? What is it? Hopefully it is more simple that pulling the whole forking thing off again?

the clutch plate is on back to front :) which seems more correct as it cant be the thrust bearing, as it's pressed onto a sleeve, and i didnt touch that! just hope the plate isnt farked *fingers crossed*

It shouldnt be! If it is I have another plate we can throw in there

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
