What g/box did he use?

z32 box, ive got ahold of one, just measuring up the bell housings now gonna make sure they are the same size before we pull things apart, also have to save some money to pay for the box, the clutch and flywheel now, might go the exedy twin plate like the R.

on a side note, nebody want a fresh fast gtr??

Saw a nice 32 GTst on Wednesday I think, spoke to the guy after he pulled a wild drift (very close call) coming around a corner behind me. Number plate was ***IIA.

He said he only had it 4mths, and he nearly wrote it off as I watched.

I told him about SAU, so he said he mioght take a look.

:) hi if your looking!

yup, if it was the same 34 i saw, had blue in the grill or something, if it had a gtr badge then add it to the shame file ha ha, but you might have seen a diff one to me and parked in the same street as seven eleven but closer to the port office, definately a gtt, also saw r34 silver sedan in the same street same day.

any skyliners come up the coast on the weekend, seen a few ppl up this way not from round here on sunday arvo.

Was up on the hill in a white R33, with Trust drag wing, and with a blue datto. Saw a few other liners out. Should have stoped an said hi :)

yeah i seen u guys, i wasnt driving my car a mate was, we were on the piss. who owns tha 33 with the trust drag wing anyway, i know hes a member on here, i swear i saw a video of him one time on here getting up it but it was being filmed from the passenger seat.

Jamie. His name is Cypher on here... (spelt another way though). R33 makes around 380hp at the wheels, he also has the white Toyota Mark2 with JZX90 plates that you may have seen around.

Saw gunmetal grey sedan this morning going past the hyperdome on the M1, nice skirts, they looked like type-m but for a sedan, anyway young bloke driving gave a wave back, caught up to me and sat behind me for a bit so hopefully he saw the address :(

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
