made me cross over to the dark 2j side :)

pshh dark side my ass... nothing good ever comes from a 2j... what happened to all those fun times disassembling nissan motors after they start rattling and constantly fixing lil shit and getting no where.

that's where the shits at! never seen a toyota motor give its owner such wonderfull lengths of bonding time.

plan is to crack 300rwkw on a stock bottom end...then push 400 which will result in plenty of bonding time :)

haha it will take it... if an rb can take 300+ on a stock bottom end you should be perfectly fine.

let me know what you think then.

Because of the side skirts coming out as much as they do, I really think to finish it off stick a 10mm spacer behind the rear wheels and it will complete the whole overall look of the car :thumbsup:

^ that is very nice mate!

thanks

thanks, yeah ive been thinking the same about the spacer, but i need a little arch work for the wheels to sit right as the standard arch was left when the 400r were put on, so they will rub like fook if i just stick a spacer on..... :thumbsup:

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
