Hi everyone I just thought I'd let you know that I made the trip down to Gladstone for the Motokhana but unfortunately it had been cancelled.:) Bugger, but anyway I thought I'd just tell you about an interesting thing I saw. On the way down we went past a group of imports that looked like they were on their way up to Rocky, maybe for the cruise or something else, this was about 12.30. Anyway the group consisted of a few 300's a S13, a few R32 and a few R33. So I was shocked when I was on my way back again at about 2.00 when we past the red 300 with a bick wing heading back again I was like What? Then we cam accross all of the cars pulled over and talking. It looked like they had been pulled over by a cop .:P

So I gotta wonder what they did to still be sitting there over an hour later. I don't know exactly what was happening, but I reckon it would be interesting to find out from anyone who knows.

Yeah the cruise was Awsome... I had a blast and I stuck to the speed limit... most of the time...

There was 3 Gtr's, 2 silvias, 1 33gts-t, 1 32 Gts-t, 1 MX-6, 1 Cordia and a Clubsport... 10 Cars... and it was a blast... there are heaps of photo's getting around and generally we just chatted and had fun... JR you could have added to our crew but I understand that SBS is good watching... speedweek is a top show for a bit of lower budget racing stuff...

And Garth that is too bad about the Motokhana being cancelled... oh well they will just have to have one up here... I am sure all the local imports will be there to have some legal fun... can we drift? or is there a few rules for safetys sake... just it would be awsome to have a few GTR's there, some sideways S13 action... maybe even jay could punt around in the fastest taxi in rocky...

tell us when it is going to be next in rocky and we will put it in the Garage Spank calander... it's definatly on my to do list...

There hasn't been to much tech conversations on here lately so...

This is a discussion and it is open to all with an opinion... state it openly and wisely... don't just say it is... give reasons...

What is better

a three inch Stainless exhaust or a 3 inch mild steel... just I am thinking of upgrading my exhaust and I am wondering about the advantages... it's just with mild steel I could replace my exhaust 3 times for the price of one stainless system... and what if I rip it off or something... maybe the mild steel is the go... can anyone think of any good reasons why flow would be better or is it just wank factor??

Yeah but the problem with that car is that he has bad blowby and the dipstick has to be held in with a piece of tape. POS!:upurs: [/b]

Yeah valid point,

But that POS as you call it also ran 170rwhp on a pretty hot day.

So what does you 323 run at the wheels. POS.

Man that is a small skyline in your picture dev. That s13 beside it looks pretty small too............. Dan dunno is marge would fit in on the cruises to the beach, would have loved to come down but. Might just have to get even bigger spotties on the front for the roos on the way home. I will have to get mark to hook me up with a pair, like the ones he will get on his ute.

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 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.
