may need one on the way home if my gearbox goes bang.

Your gearbox wont go bang, my gearbox crunched 3rd from the day i brought it. I worked out i just needed to shift slower. 4 years later and its still working fine :P

^^you mean from 1st to 2nd? it's normal when cold... i think double clutching is a way to get around it

Yeah from 1st to 2nd, especially at higher revs. but also going into 1st like at traffic lights etc. But it seems to have stopped crunching/grinding all together now so Im happy with that :P

Dropped the mrs of at work this morning and for some reason the car felt like it had heaps more poke than normal.... I don't know if it's just me but the car seems to behave differently (response wise) on different days lately....hmm!

Well Im off to buy some oil and a filter today for the 32. Searched SAU on what oil would be good for a RB20DET, that just confused me more lol. The car has 158k on it but its been extremely well looked after. As far as I can tell, Motul Turbolight 4100 would be good for it.

If anyone has any suggestions, that would be greatly appreciated, otherwise I'll just get that.

I spoke with some lads some time ago about the Motul oils. The 4100 is good for 10,000kms but who's going to leave the same oil in their car for 10,000kms? 8100 is half the price and is changed twice as often (every 5,000kms). The end result was: with the 8100 the two oil changes every 10,000kms (5.000kms each) mean you'll have fresher oil more often.

So I stick with the 8100 every 5,000kms. Same cost in the end.

    • Have you flushed the initial fluid yet? It should look like a rainbow unicorn shat glitter into it. 2nd or 3rd fluid change is when you party.
    • all brand new unit from Tomei, fluid, bearings, etc. Tomei said they call it a 1.5 lsd because its 100 percent lock up under acceleration and 50 percent under deacceleration.  as I mentioned I used their fluid, install and their break-in procedure, (alot of figure 8's) but even when driving straight, or even slowly backing out of garage for first time, (at 2 mph) then driving to and from figure 8 parking lot, each tire in the rear would sporadically grab, skip, bounce, shutter and skip, shutter back a force I could feel causing clutch to slip then grab, at any speed. shaking entire car. I removed unit, since I put stock back in and all is fine, via process of elimination, its something with the lsd unit itself. I wasn't going to beat up the entire car more or change anything else for no reason as I had a feeling something in the lsd itself was wrong as everything was fine before this alone was installed and I rechecked over everything else after first time backing out I suspected an issue. I'll probably sadly already need new tires now just from trying to drive it 5 miles and performing the figure 8 break in. but if someone has any ideas I'm all ears 
    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
