hey there,.

im getting a problem pretty much like axle tramp but when im cornering right hand turns even under very low throttle the rear end clunks an shakes violantly. Its literally like driving a car that has bad axle tramp when you dump the clutch in the wet and it shakes like crazy. it also does it a little when i gun it through 2nd and into 3rd. between gear it shakes a bit, iv only just felt this though because i had my clutch done. the major problem is the right hand turns.

the problems pretty shocking so i need a solution pretty soon. Pedders checked out all my suspention and rekn that everything is in perfect condition and they think that my diff might be is shagged and has huge amounts of play in it which is what they think is causing the shuddering.

The diff also clunks a bit in 4th,5th or reverse when you back on and off throttle lightly so im thinking that my diff is rooted. Surely if the thing has a mechanical diff init it wouldnt be this harsh would it ? and it would do it al the time not just right hand turns ?

advise and ideas greatly appreciated guys!!

cheers

    • Welcome. Dont let anyone dissuade you from your dreams. If you want a gtr, keep sabing and you will eventually get one. I feel like if I had have bought stocks, those companies would have gone bust and I would have lost my money.  There's a gamble in everything we buy. I've had good times and bad. But... I've also met my absolute best friend through this network and can't imagine life without them(more like a brother). Keep in mind, some specific mods will change as technology gets better. If you feel like general chat, there's always the wasteland.....
    • Those are some very cutesy barriers! Is that common?
    • Saw this abandoned Honda Fit in a carpark that was getting repaved... they just 'cut around it' and continued with the job! There's a number of reasons why the car could have been abandoned, but as for the construction company, legally they don't have permission to move the car from the owner (who has moved on and can't be contacted) so all they can do it just leave it there with enough space around it so it won't get damaged. 
    • You’ll want to have the block drilled and tapped to suit 1/2in head studs and the head for the same. How much power do you intend to make?
    • Sorry for resurrecting an oldish thread Not much has happened in the past year since the last update. The car did another 1000 miles or so and failed the MOT for the first time in October (failed on tyres which had been advised for a couple of years) In October the car got put up for sale and was removed in November due to no interest, being so close to christmas it was to be expected. The roads were dry in February so I decided to tax it early and get the new tyres fitted.   Fast forward to April, I got someone in to give the car a good clean after sitting for the winter.                                 The car got re-advertised and today (Saturday 3rd May) the car sold. The new owner is planning a GTR conversion at some point and a respray in the same pearl white. It's bitter sweet, it's a shame to have the car sit there for half the year and then only do 1000 miles. The kids are growing too quick and space in the back is getting limited. It's been a great 6.5 years of ownership
