i spoke to the previous owner of the car not long ago, and he said something along the lines of if you launch it in 1st and grab 2nd, more than likely that your gear box will blow. Think it happened to him twice.  :P you wont hear this happening with a rb25 gearbox now would you?

ive heard that about the SR20 boxes, when you install a heavy clutch the gearbox cops it heaps bad

this goes to show, in my view anyway, that skylines come factory with alot of components that can cope a fair amount of abuse. big brakes and 5 stud wheels doesnt go astray either unlike our silvia/early model 180sx counterparts.

having said that, wanna swap exhaust Sam since you always wanted a resonator in your exhaust why not trade for a weak and see how you like it??  :lol:  :lol: serious offer btw

hmm, too much effort to swap exhausts

pathetic excuse sam, if you love your exhaust just say so. :P i can remove an exhaust (turbo back) in 40 mins tops. i have car ramps (btw if your reading this will you know what i mean) and tools. but here is an exhaust design that i would like on mine....

:lol:

so you just want the bread?

yeah basically :lol:

BUT substitute those ingredients with fries and it would taste just the same. :P

thats just 2 straight through pipes, that would be loud as!!!

shit yeah, but it would sound absolutely awesome. i wonder if it would hinder exhaust flow and performance though since the exhaust flow is distrupted by twin pipes..i wouldnt think so though???

    • Also build this EH ute with 370z motor and gearbox with a couple of turbos just for fun.  
    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing  
    • I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
