^Flick, sounds like any 2nd hand car unfortunately..... My skyline is similar, needs new clutch, new tyres, new plugs, etc. etc.

Of all the cars I've owned the only one with the least problems is my SP23 which I bought brand new. And even then there have been a few issues (cruise f@#ked up), just warranty has covered them. Thus is the joy of cars :P

All but car 4 owned at the same time :

car 1) Clutch, turbo, intercooler, engine, clutch, turbo, exhaust, afm, right rear trailing arm ripped out of chassis, diff and that was in just over a year :P

car 2) Blew up engine, SOLD lol

car 3) Gearbox, injectors

car 4) Not to much apart from hitting a pothole to hard and breaking something. I treat the 180 like a cheap whore and it just takes it, I love this car.

thanks Jess

have you had a chance to look around @ 5 stud hubs

i found a topic but cant find it quickly here basiacally some guy selling front struts to stagea with

R34 fron rotors and calipers and rear 33 gtst hubs and calipers

ive got my front rotors and calipers will talk to a guy about getting his rear end rotors calipers and hubs

then to my knowledge all i need is front hubs to suit ATTESSA

cheers madaz. Saw the pics last night, was too tired to reply - but they arent showing up now?

Weird seeing my car in different colours lol but i stuck with the first one u did (original colour :action-smiley-069: ) Thanx!

    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.  
    • No, you're wrong, and you've always been wrong about this. The Nismo has 2 sets of openings. One is a real 2-way, and the other is a 1-way. There is no 1.5-way possible with the ramps that they offer. A real 1.5-way does exist. That Cusco stuff I posted is a prime example. If the forward drive ramps are, say 55°, and the overrun ramps are, say, 30°, then you will get about half as much LSD effect on overrun than you do on drive. It is real, it realy works. OK, you're slightly right. The Nismo has 55° and 45° ramps on the 2-way, so it does offer less LSD effect on overrun. But, I think that just means that they've (probably) sensibly established that you do not want actually equal LSD effect on overrun. You just want "quite a lot, but not quite as much as the drive LSD effect".
