many moons ago when I was living at home some cops came round one Sat arvo...

I walk outside to see them inspecting my old 33... started to chat to them and apparently a neighbour had dobbed us in as we had a loud car that was waking them up in the morning... I asked them what time and they said approx 5:30am... There was no way it was me as I never get up that early so I took them out the back to show them my dad's old Alfa Giulia GTC... they just laughed and asked to hear it... I gave it a few revs for them and they said nice car and left promptly lol... that car is seriously loud, I did used to feel a bit sorry for the neighbours! lol made my 33 sound positively quiet in comparison :bunny:

Hahaha nice one!

Im yet to get a visit from the po po's but im sure in the near future they will be knocking at my door :bunny:

That yellow Panspeed fd is automotive porno!

Looking good Dane. Do me a favour, and feel free to tell me to get stuffed...but i think the thing that will make your car will be the carbon flush fit headlight kit that deletes the pop up headlights.

If Greg's Onevia was white i would have bought it already as my daily. I wuodl throw the headlight conversion on it and be stoked! I would then change my name to Ben and track spec my GTSt. It seems all the cool kids with track GTSts these days go by the name of Ben :laugh:

You can tell me to get rooted too but I agree with Roy here, I reckon the carbon lights would look schweet.

Bris, I have your solution, my girl is up for sale, how about I send her over to you? :D You can even leave the name stickers on the window so everyone thinks you're one of the cool "Ben's" .

Great minds must think alike hey boys??! You can both get stuffed, and rooted... :laugh:

I'm way ahead of you, already have these waiting to go in, hence why there's no headlights in there :D Unfortunately they're not carbon though... The stock headlights weigh a fair bit, and were complicated to wire and just unnecessary so we decided to delete them with the Supermade kit. Now I juts need to get some lights for it, but it will make for a great cold air feed until then.

Greg's Onevia is a top buy Troy, nice car. Then you'll have a real engine, none of this RB rubbish :D

yeah you want some of these bad boys. it's the wtg for 180.

in fact if I ever do a 180 it will be a replica of that one. I saw it when it was debuted at tokyo auto salon a few years back and it was awesome then, and it's awesome now! lol, and nomuken even signed shit for me next to it, then pulled funny faces while I took pictures. fun times.

The 180 has a heart beat! :laugh:

that's awesome!

the headlight kit will look the goods on your car...

if my onevia was white, I probably wouldn't have bothered building up my silvia, I decided I wanted a white s13 not long after I imported the blue one... smooth.

I think im in love with those URAS kits...if only they did them for 33s and Id be set

Haha smooth Greg!

Yeah, I think the headlight kit will tie in well with the whole black/champagne thing I've got going on, especially when the carbon bonnet goes back on, though it's looking a little worse for wear...

Baron: I dig the Uras kit too mate, pity it came out after I'd spent way too much on the bodywork already. It looks to make a good base for some underbody aero work too.

Selling her? Any particular reason? Shame, the thing looked to be a decent little bus, and no doubt well driven.

    • 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".
