I was dropping the GF off at work this morning and came across a horrid sight, one written off DR30 4door, some of you may have seen it in HPI before, its a grey/silver over black 4door with crome rims, iron mask front...

looked to me like a one car accident, maybe lost it and rolled, car is oval shaped now...

Hope there were no injuries though....

i'll look tonight for the mag i saw it in and post a pic of it in its better days....

I think it was issue 46 in 2004 and it was the worked FJ20 pumping out 300 hp at rear wheels. It sold a couple of months back. The car was mint and had a lot of nice work done including front mount, bigger injectors, microtech, apexi turbo, fantasy manifold etc. It is also one of the feature cars on FJ20.com

I hope the owner is alright....my thoughts go out to him.

cheers

This makes me sad.. Even worse is I heard the car was advertised in the trading post for 7.5k a wile back.. Obviously some fully sick drifter P plater got his grubby unexperienced hands on it :dry:

I wonder if the owner will now be wrecking it for parts?

      Unpeeling the Orange

      Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out

      Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.

      Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.

      Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.

      For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
