...ahem :)

I'd just like to address the 'economy' issue with a few notes from Driver magazine (japan) - I assuming we are talking about fuel economy (I can't be bothered clicking yet another crap ebay link with some idiot selling an FD)

Car - km/l city cycle - km/l highway cycle

92 FD Type-R - 5.6 - 9.9

90 GTR - 4.7 - 9.9

95 GTR v-spec - 5.7 - 9.1

99 GTR v-spec - 5.4 - 10.1

:talk2hand

anyway, my opinions are pretty obvious and have all been said before

cue: more stereotypes

If a rotor is treated right they can last just as long as other engines.

I know of many people who have had rotors with large ports and/or turbos who looked after their cars mantained them properly and had hardly any problems.

Its like any car if you neglect the maintainance side of things the car will always suffer and so will you and your wallet.

So much power from so little displacement.

Who ever said theres no substitute for cubes???

If it aint a rotor it aint a motor :)

    • How much have you lowered?  I had 350Z springs in the rear and was able to pull the camber into factory spec with the factory arms on the rear, obviously the front ran negative camber as it isn't adjustable, but rotating the wheels regularly evened out the wear.
    • Either the installer needs to come back, you need an auto electrician, or you need to learn automotive electricals yourself.   First step Id look at is where that big thing came out of, is there still things unplugged at that location? Maybe they just forgot to put a relay in or something?
    • Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.
    • I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want. 
    • Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue.
