im the same, mates always saying the clunking makes my car sound like its f**ked. cant be f**ked changing it back and its is fun when it is needed :ninja:

if i was you i would buy or tighten up your vlsd (but not enough so that it acts like a locker) maybe put in two shims??? (read up on the shimming thread)

i also got weird looks when i was wearing my 2way in. i ended up driving up too a guy who was sitting in his car at the boat harbour drinking beer and explained to him what i was doing. some dumb b*&$^& was looking over at me dumbfounded as hell for ages

A friend of mine is offering me his 2way kaaz for 600km in the pumpkin, he has receipt. said he drove about 500km. selling it for half price.

Ideally, I would've of bought a 1.5way nismo gt, but... since i can get this good deal, I'm wondering is the clunk only noticeable when turning or its full time accel and deccel . does it even clunk on idle/cluch press ?

I'm interesting in this mod since I'm doing a good load of bushing, bought sticky direzza Z2 tires, fullrace ets, so I'm looking at improving my tracking with this mod, but into drifting at all tho. drag and daily.

thanks for your inpput and sorry if I offended someone by bumping this thread..

Really depends on the oil used too, a diff can be pretty "quiet" to use for normal driving and won't clunk as much as you think.. It will chirp and skip when doing u-turns or moving around a carpark but other than that it's not that bad.

Did you see mine in the car park at the track day? Lol.

I have a 1.5. When cold it doesn't clonk at all. When hot it clonks like a mofo. Using the penrite 90-140 or something that was recommended somewhere else. Other thing is I have no bushes. R180 is solid mounted. So the R200 might be a bit nicer.

    • Kinkstah, no, coilovers aren't illegal, especially as a bolt straight in. The illegal part will be if they're altering suspension geometry beyond factory limits, or the ride height is not legal.   Sounds like the blue slipper just didn't want to deal with any later possibility of mods appearing on the car.
    • The problem has always been that coilovers are able to be adjusted, almost at any time, to be too low. Most people who ever get/got defected for/with coilovers were actually afoul of the minimum ride height rule. So the interpretation by cops/inspectors was always that it is pointless to allow numpty to raise his coilovers and get the car inspected/cleared, then just drop them back down again as soon as they get around the corner from the inspection station.  This led to the interpretation that they were illegal unless rendered such that they can't be adjusted (ie, collars welded to the body, that sort of thing). That may or may not have ever actually been the official line, but I'm pretty sure it's not considered to be a solution these days. Coilovers themselves fall under clause 3.2 b of that manual, because they are an "installation of a variable ride height system" and they don't fit the exclusions in that clause (which point to air springs and other pneumatic adjusters). So, as per previous statements, they require engineering cert to be legal on the road. Once you have such cert, provided you do not adjust them outside the height range covered by the cert, you are OK. Without, you have an unroadworthy vehicle.
    • Here E10 is the cheapest fuel. And general advice is to not use it unless you hate your car. From what I remember it clogs up stuff in the fuel system or injectors?  With US/Canada being E10 across the board, does that mean that all fuel there is terrible?
    • Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW ) Edit: I checked. They aren't. https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-infosheet-light-vehicle-modifications-manual-suspension-and-ride-height.pdf
