All it takes is a bit of practice, and I've had too much practice :laughing-smiley-014:

I think I did it about roll 2, so it should be fine. Was the last time I did it, and that one ended up on the roof as well.

Our first outting with the Dry sump was today. Oran park south circuit

Absolute success. Few minor dramas like the just jap silicon piping spliting and restricting it to 8psi, and rear brake issues but other wise it managed a 50.2 with stuff all power (sub 250Kw id assume)

Time to pull it all apart and switch shells now!

i was at OP on Sat arvo/night, went and watched Niel in the Radicall, looked like heaps of fun. Also met Duncan so good to be able to put faces to names. Was surprised at the mix of cars that were there. Street cars to race cars. NO SKYLINES. was a RB powered silvia that was quick. Did you go on Sunday?

yeah good to meet you too Stuart. now get your car finished and out there so there is at least 1 skyline around :P

we got the rear cradle back from John on the weekend, we now have a very adjustable rear end. still need to fit the hicas replacement arms to it then it is ready to go in with all the colourful chinese bits bolted on. Glad we bought most of the bits before the $AUD crashed.

Brad you better get a wriggle on, Neil dragged his radical around there in 48.18 on saturday

Duncan,

I think I'll clean up the original crush tubes and weld them to the top and bottom plates that I was going to make up to replace the cradle bushes. This will eliminate the need to add a bush to the bottom when bolting it in and make sure that the holes are exactly the right size.

Only problem is that I'm going to have to root around in the bin to find them. Sometimes I get the good ideas way too late.

I too was surprised at the mix of cars but yes it was a very hot day. Their was a nice clean red r32 gtr there in the arvo when I was out watching Neil but I did't get any laptimes from it.

Oh I know that silvia all too well.

I have to see it pretty every day at work.

Ha ha your a funny guy mark,,,I'll bet you don't chew your fingernails anymore either.

Young Brad,,,Duncan's correct,,,but a wriggle on won't cut it. I consider my 48.18 as slow,,,i'm really chasing a 46.

Neil.

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By Duncan · Posted

      I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By S1_C34 · Posted

      I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.

      CD009 RB Conversion

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.

      Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
