Shane: Noel and I were chatting about the projects and time taken to complete them tonight. It all boils down to one thing - PREPARATION.

If you start out blind and just think I want this, and just add bits until you think you have it right, you will always be disappointed with the hack of a job at the end of the day and you will always spend twice as much and it will take twice as long.

Before any great project you have to sit down and write out your goal. Write down a list of EVERY item you think would be needed to achieve that goal. Then take it to someone who knows what they're on about (not some cash junkie workshop that only wants to sell you parts that look bling or might be bits he has to get rid of coz they been on the shelf for a while). Once you have all the information you need, take your list to another place and get a second opinion. If there are differences in opinion, ask why, then go somewhere else reputable until you get two well known and good quality workshops to agree on what it will take to achieve your goal. Then you proceed with a plan of attack to get everything done.

Once you have broken it down and know what you need and how to go about it, all the legalities etc. , then you will have a smooth operation.

Either that or just FRIGGIN ASK ME IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!!!!

Then you wouldn't have to spend so much money on crap you didn't need.

Yeah BOI!!!

lol ill walk on him.

lol!!

hows my fist sound..??

I dunno, hows a criminal record, and an expensive civil suit sound to you?? Honestly marki, we've been through this before. Get over it.

dnt worry its not just me i knw of others that arnt too fond of u. its just the world as u say

What, you know a few people on this forum who aren't fond of me? How genuinely sad this makes me. I know people who think the same of you, does it really matter at the end of the day? No, not really, unless your seriously vested in making everyone on this forum like you. I don't know what your social status is Marki, but I don't depend on this forum for friends.

DAN, whats the total?

Dunno mate, the lift pump was $130 but the filler I won't know until it arrives. The express air freight from USA he said would only be $50 and will take 3-5 days. But not sure on the actual cost of the item. Just fix me up when it get in.

K brudda?

    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
