aww my little bro rocks! He found the car for me AND talked it down in price by $200.

He is 3.5 years younger than me but acts like an older brother. Any car ive ever purchased he has gone over and found any problems, talks prices and makes deals. Im gonna let him take the KE out for a turn when its ready.. since im sure he will be doing the work on it anyway haha

I would take my car if insurance wasnt void on the track.

Wouldnt drift it tho, would just have some fun.

I dont want to spend heaps yet cos if im shit well...then its a bit of a waste! haha

I just gotta try it tho.

If I were you I'd take the 34 out and see how you go before commiting to buying a car purely for skids. I hear ya about the insurance thing and not wanting to damage your car but as long as you coast through turn one and avoid the tyre stacks, it's pretty damn hard to actually hit anything on the other corners. One prac night for ~$200 to see what it's like is a lot better than $2000 on a drift car :D

Saw a stag sporting this FMIC IN YA FACE look driving in Norwood on sunday. Wasnt me and wont go naming any names... Whos gonna guess who it was? up for grabs is this ziplock bag full of... AIR!

So you dont need to have a roll cage or harness to go to practice?...

nope. as long as your car is roadworthy, you pay your fees and you have long sleeve top and long pants and an approved helmet, go for your life.

And take a box of tissues for when you put the car into the wall ;)

"I said a ten second car, not a ten minute car.

You could push this across the finish line, or tow it.

You couldn't even tow that across the finish line.

No Faith.

I have faith in you, but this isn't a junkyard. This is a garage"

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
