haha, mine's in 2WD at the moment, getting ready for a dyno hopefully......I'd have to be suicidal to give it too much right now. I hit it hard at just over 60kph the other day and it got sideways on dry road almost immediately. If I fang it with a slight ripple in the road right now its too much of a handfull.

chad, would be interesting to see how she does in 2wheel drive, id say nowhere too fast lol...not in a straight line anyways. Im up for hillzy when you are mate.

you'd be suprised how much grip it still gets, my coilovers a fair soft, so it grips well, wont even spin the rears when boost hits in second gear, keen as for the hills, might have to get Jenkies to organise another Gorge mission, but i think i'll keep it in 4wd, i seem to still get sidway with it on. :D

impressive pete. geez, mine is a handful with 260rwkw, let alone that much...can i ask where you ended up choosing to get it tuned?

I haven't decided yet Ryan.......I want someone who knows PFC's backwards but doesn't want my children as payment, lol

yeah I think my very stiff suspension doesn't help because it lets go of the rear every time in 2nd as it starts to boost and I don't think the Attessa Pro likes it too much.

If your talking about hills, im up for it when i get my suspension done, trust me i do know how to drive.. Tom was enjoying the nice easy drive cough cough this morning while we were late for school.

doesn't matter if you can drive out there! depends on if you can keep up to some of these nut cases :)

but Pete..... isn't it more fun breaking traction like that? :banana:

its ok if it keeps some sort of reasonable line, but this thing just snaps too quick to be fun so I'm looking forward to 4WD again

    • Yeah, I don't believe the M35 uses a deadhead system.
    • Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.
    • Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).  
    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
