Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

Thought this might be more appropriate in the Wasteland,

Lock your doors and roller doors every night, and put the alarm on. Don't get lazy!!!!! Just got broken into last night, PS3 with games, Panasonic handycam and mobile phones all gone. Thank god the GTR was safe and tucked away.

Scary thing though, mum woke up and saw the bloke in our house, he looked at her and legged it. Mum woke me and my dad up and I burst out the house ran around the corner and chased the bastards as they drove off. How is that, while we were asleep?

Anyway, sorry to put a downer on everything, but don't get lazy guys. I think in these times this sort of stuff will be happening more as people get more desperate.

Sometimes the home owner can be more unpredictable than the intruder, think about it, home owner has the home court advantage, knowledge of rooms, weapons of choice, the intruder would be stupid to stay and challenge!

Sad to see stuff got stolen tho, hopefully insurance will replace!

I wish she did scream a would have been up quicker, oh well, it is just material things but it is the fact that we were all in the house at the time.

My brother said before he went back to bed was, "I hope the last hit of drugs kills them", I couldn't agree more!

Some 10 years ago 4 theives broke into a house in St Agnes. Raided the living room and woke the home owner. Theives found some display swords and armed themselves. End result was 4 theives requiring paramedics.

The house they broke into was my old instructors home. The display swords were blunt, and sensei was a "little" more experienced than those stupid idiots. He was humble and we had to press him for the story. Sensei detailed to us how and what went down ... these idiots had no training whatsoever, but thought their "street fighting" would better a professionally trained instructor in his own home. ;) FAIL!

My house is a bit like Fort Knox now. Alarmed, hidden cameras, and I'm int he middle of installing a surveillance system which allows me to log onto a PC anywhere and visually see what is going on around my house. :)

Hmm, very interested in buying this ...

I love old school muscle cars. I've always wanted an SLR, but this is only a 253 (SLR lookalike). Its still very affordable. ;) Of course, it would be my little project. Fix it up and do it up as I drive it as my daily.

I haven't done a V8 project yet. Done everything else ... rotary, 4 na worked, 4 supercharged, 4 turboed, 6 turbo, 6 na worked. Had a V8 project when younger, but shed was broken into and car trashed before completion. I'd love to do this as my V8 project.

If I do get it, I may be inclined to sell my black Stagea. :laugh: The car is on gas too! Oh so tempting :)

      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.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      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.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      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.
