good to see its nothing over the top.

but, is that a standard battery?

haha no , it's just a sticker, its a special standard battery!!

the car has been sitting for so long i'm not sticking anything else in it until it's up and running again. it's been nearly two years i think!! :D

Sounds like my kind of place!

lol thats cool

Didnt you have a 5 series though?

Never had a 5 series... I'm not *that* old yet :blink:

Don't worry, the silly beemer will be left at home. I got something else to come out and play with :D

the r33 was going to be circuit only but have never had time to finish it off! so trying to finish it now and get it on the track and sell it. it will be a good car it has had alot of money spenton it and hardly turned a wheel it was 80 percent built before we got it.

yeah too many gtr's want to get back to just two!! one each (not that you can ever have too many but the wife does get cranky) :D

the engine bay as it stands tonight, still a bit to go,, trying to make room up the front for the dry sump pump, which means repositioning the thermo fans and a few other bits and pieces.

What do you use the R33 for Russ?

Or what do you intend to build it up for?

Seems you have a GTR for every situation. "Collect the whole set' eh?

didnt you have an evo? have ya still got it?

1. I don't have a mullet.

2. You're thinking too hard. It's a little more obvious than that... We're on SAU after-all :D

Total = 5.8L TT

M3 = 3.2L

Difference = ?

hehe! it will be good to see either way!

It's nothing special, just an R32 track bitch that I'll have fun with and spend way too much money on :blink:

Congrats on your results in Tsukuba btw... Definitely did Australia proud :D

Can't wait to see your beast in the flesh... Those YouTube videos are like teaser porn. All the action, but no money shot :cool:

    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
