i went down to queen st to have a look to.. and might i add that nissan australia are a bunch of f**kin retarded monkeys... why the f**k do you put a car there in a container with the sides cut out of it and have glass there so you can't even see it properly! perhaps they should of had someone there that actually knew something about the car too.. not a couple of skanks saying "eeerrr.. i dunno, want a poster?" if nissan are actually serious about bringing the thing here, and selling it, maybe they should stop worrying about importers, and start doing some proper advertising.. ffs... great car, but very disapointed in the setup and organisation of the display, makes me want to get an import just to piss em off.

whats the most you could do? touch and smell it

Yea man! The smell of the car is awesome! Sitting in the beat is mad too! Not to mention the boot space, the lack of clutch. The dash is nice. And the engine bay as well as the car's fat rear tyres.. Also the Engine Start stop button. The weird door handles...

The list goes on!@

mmmmmmm

seriously though....dont understand why people whinge about the car being in a box...whats the most you could do? touch and smell it

eeerrrr, perhaps actually being able to see it front/rear on, not just side. have a look at the engine bay.. everyone that went down with us kinda thought, seeing as nissan australia are sending out emails to go down and you'll be able to check out the car for yourself before you register interest/deposit/whatever, you kind of assume that you'll atleast be able to have a decent look, but instead, a waste of 3 hours driving, and money spent on over-priced city parking to see a car behind glass glass. atleast in japan we got to breath on the thing, and we got more answers to our questions even though we don't speak japanese. nissan are treating it like its the only solid gold gtr in the world, get over it.

3hrs driving to see a car in a box...ouch!!!

i assumed the same thing as you when the car when the car was here in Sydney but seeing it in a box and only a few cm away from me was better than nothing

nissans a year away from selling the car locally so im sure the car wasnt displayed to attract more sales

people seriously thinking of buying the GTR will buy it even without seeing/touching/experiencing the car in person.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By JC71 · Posted

      sold listed as a Tomei LSD 1.5 Way For 1998+ Nissan Skyline ER34 25GT RB25DE w/Open R200 https://www.ebay.com/itm/174006114594?campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms=&campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=71883f2ccc571356e0a757bc7adfdde2&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms= it went in like butter all gears, alignment, back lash etc, rotation and clearances correct, and if rolling all rotates smooth and free when coasting down road , clutch in or out over 10 mph smooth... its the binding, clunking and jerking from a stop that is most concerning, also seems like its going to tear the tires off in 10 miles of normal road driving.

      What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.

      Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By JC71 · Posted

      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?
