Most Skyline owners tend to modify them for better performance. A very small percentage of these owners ever race them.

I was really just looking for what you think the difference between racing, and racing hard is.

I mean there is plenty of people racing and making good times on r200 diffs etc.

And plenty of people not exploding things with over 265 kws......

I see. I meant more than a one off street meeting at their local drag strip. I commend even this but the point wasn't the difference between racing and racing hard so much as it was the difference between racing and not racing at all.

Makes more sense?

Seriously, what the fcuk are you on about? I'm not having a go at R200 diffs. I don't know of any other way I can explain it.

Forget the diffs.

The diffs aren't here right now.

Okay?

Good.

Most Skyline Drivers spend money on making their cars go harder but don't race their cars.

That's ALL!

LOL everything is fine!

You keep wanting to go on about how most skyline owners dont race their cars, which could be said for just about any model of sports car so why go on about that....?

Why would i want to forget about diffs since this is what the thread is about? Either way dont sweat it, i got what i needed from others in this thread.

Take it easy :P

Stuart's car will make a shitload more power and torque than my car and I explode CV's and snap axles 2 at a time with 265kW.

R33 GTST R200 LSD's and std axles = Rubbish in my opinion. The only reason people say they're 'strong enough' is because 99.9999999% of Skyline drivers ESPECIALLY the ones with big HP cars NEVER race their cars hard. They're all soft - especially the GTR drivers :dry:

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
