a locked diff is usually used to transfer equal power to each wheel. instead of a difference of power between both tyres which is what can sometimes happen, esspecially under heavy load.

i woulda been happy without it tho, but it comes with the car so i have no probs with that.

once i get the car ill put up some pics ya'll

should be middle of next week hopefully

depending on the paperwork.

im goin out next week and gettin a blitz air filter kit and an exhaust. i didnt get paid as much as i throught i would so the exhaust may be a lil while off yet which sux

but we'll see how i go i waitin on my tax check to come in before i buy the exhaust

anyway pics soon guys

  • 2 weeks later...

hey all

here is a pic of my newie, picked it up 2day that is the sale pic, but i will take some once i give it a wash tomorrow and fix up all the wires i didnt hide tonight.

i am stoked

it was a bit scary when becuse it has a locked diff it wurrs in 3rd and 4th at low revs but i talked to a machanic and he says because its tryin to push both wheels, the gears are stugglin at lower revs. so that easyed my mind a bit. still gunna get it checked tho

anyway stock as a rock except for a stezza and pod atm, exhaust to come and then wheels probably

im not into uppin the boost or anything like that atm maybe a cooler later down the track but im sweet with my ride atm i love it

gets alot of attention tho good and bad

Nice pick up mate. Looks quite nice, from the looks of it ... a series 1 R34 98 model? stockie gtt wing looks pretty good too, wish mine had come with that instead of the altia/nismo one. The little dent will come out nicely in the hands of a panelbeater.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
