;) WTF is wrong with the VR38s then? Pistons separating, engines popping in reverse.

guys, it was a joke. he doesn't have an R35 and this non-existent R35 did not blow up in reverse. I think a few of us need our sarcasm meters recalibrated...

Sorry Baron, I forgot to use the smilies in my reply.

I was purely joking with Dirt, knowing full well he would not be "limiter checking" a car, and I was nearly 100% that he hadn't bought a R35 yet...

any more news on this??

any more progress on how haltech killed their 35??pingping??

yeah I've been waiting for some elaboration on that too. I think blitz or his birdie was wrong. as far as I can find out the haltech 35 is the only one with a blown VR38 in sydney. you never know, there may be a secret one out there but I haven't been able to find it. :)

There is another, as I have already said, however I get the feeling that if the owners of the second one wanted the blow up to be public knowledge, there would probably be a thread about it.

well it wasn't so secret that you posted about it here! fair enough though I would probably try to keep it quiet too if I lunched one. and I still think you are ruggedly handsome also. mmmmm. sugoi! kimochi buttsex.gif

i dont understand why anyone would care if they lunched a engine (in any car) it happens- its a engine at the end of the day, unless they are the sort of people that claim to have standard everything and run 7 sec passes @ 1000000mph with their "freak/lucky" car.

I too would like to know who owns the 2nd R35 GTR here in Australia with a blown engine?

There appears to be many rumors flying around by certain members that CRD is the proud owner of this 2nd blown VR38.

Just to set things strait, the car is in perfect condition sitting on a hoist with no engine problems what so ever and anyone is more than welcome to come down and check this out including the crack head that started these rumors.

Cheers!

thanks for straightening that out. :D that was what I suspected. unless maybe there is another one blown but not CRDs?

long live the VR38!!

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • 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.
