Well in that case "its stock" "I had crap tyres" or " It was its second run" are no longer valid.

Its awesome and the time it ran is 13 sumthin sumthin in spite of being awesome. Thus closes the case of the people of whoretown vs natro. The court rules in the favour of the people of whoretown.

Nice.

.... Great now I have no one to argue with about crap while I sit at work :(

Standing in the dole queue does not classify as work. Go out and get a real job to fund the abomination.

All that says to me is you need to meet more drivers LOL

I agree that they would be similar around a circuit, but you should have me at the drags. The gearing in my 6 speed is not the greatest for the strip.

CoR33vettes are always awesome. In the same way that herpes just doesn't leave, to some people that's pretty awesome.

Maybe, but the fact is you would be much faster than all of us! At the drags I probably would be faster after you leave your gearbox in pieces on the start line :P

I challenge the title "abomination" on the grounds that by definition, an abomination creates strong feelings. The feelings expressed towards the wannabe CoR33vette, although negative, are hardly strong enough to substantiate claim to being classed an "abomination".

The level of actual care given is just too low and is more of a passing interest.

Ditch the shit house 6 speed and get an auto like a real man

Hence the Modena in the daily and the 6 speed in the track car.

I am amused and amazed by Squizz's abillity to liken an LS1 bearing R33 to Herpies.

I think that had almost made my day until...http://www.news.com.au/realestate/selling/queensland-agent-tamara-english-dons-superhero-duds-to-market-property-in-caboolture/story-fndbawks-1226679550939

That is why I am everlasting, and you are not.

Screw being everlasting that shit is over rated. I'd rather be here and now then gone.

Also I can't commit to dinner, I have a baby arriving any day now, the suspense is killing me.

Shame you cannot come along. We need to get numbers up to this event.

Congrats on the baby though. Do you know what you are having?

I have a 3.5 year old daughter which I spend money on lol.... and my wife expecting in 10 weeks time our second baby :)

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
