Some people will believe anything that they're told, so it never hurts to have "the other side of the story" thrown into the mix to give people something to think about.

Mastadd why would I bag the R31 club?

How/when did I do any bagging?

I should also state that nobody ever approached any of "the powers that be" from the R31 club in regards to financial funding for this event.

There's so much more I could say in relation to this, but there's not much point if the person spreading rumours won't step up.

Ill step up, didnt you say:

"haven't taken the time to visit the R31 forum, because I know that all that awaits within is more of this sort of rubbish.

...People making up stories to try and make other people look bad, or just simply trying to stir the pot because they have nothing better to do with their time."

the only person here spreading rumours appeares to be you, didnt you also say that you havent been active in the 31 club for some time? how could you posibly have the other side of the story? its this kind of BS that your telling everyone thats detrimental to an event of this size! we only want to see this event do well and for everyone to have a good time, the amount of time and $$$ That goes into planing and running an event this size is unreal i have nothing but respect for those with the skillz to orgonise it. how bout you step up and say/do productive for this event? :dry:

Yes, I did say that I hadn't been to the R31 forum for some time.

I'm not spreading any rumours, I have nothing to lose and nothing to gain by fabricating stories.

I didn't say anything about not being active within the club for some time, that is your interpretation.

I said I hadn't bothered to visit the forum for a while.

The 2 don't go hand in hand.

I fail to see how anything I say can be detrimental to the event in question.

I have no desire to attempt to sabotage cazz's gazillion hours of slog over organising this event, it just gets a bit old when time and time again, misleading stories are created for no apparent reason.

As for stepping up and saying/doing something productive for this event, I (and several others) stepped up prior to this event being organised, back when it was just an idea, and made sure it was known that we would offer support, and help with event promotion when and if something was organised.

Unfortunately there were no details forwarded to myself or any of the other people who said they would help with promotion, and if I'd taken it upon myself to intervene, I would have been doing the wrong thing.

Due to event details having changed several times with minimal notice, any promotion details taken directly from the original information source would have been misleading.

I'm aware of how much work needs to go into organising any event, and I know that organising something of this calibre is a massive headache, which is why many of us were willing to put our hands up to help, so don't pretend that you have any idea, when you obviously don't.

adam (a.k.a. Spartacus) has just made the most intelligent, articulate, and well informed post in this thread.

you come here and tell me that i have no clue!

i stand by the statement that you indeed have no clue, and as i said the only person to come here and talk untruths is you and yet now u feel you can side step a response that articulates your fabrication of untruths!

i may only have a little bit of a clue but thats all that is reqired to give you the facts to your storys, which i supplyed in my orig post.

Adam may very well be right, im glad that you didnt throw your self in with your inteligent conversation remark.

No more fule from me to keep your fires going.

End Rant.

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
