but his laggy manual wasnt hitting boost quick enough, torque converter had him!

Nothing will ever beat the look on my mates face when I overtook him sideways on the outside lane of a roundabout.. He didn't believe me Stags could kick the rear out.

Standard 16s FTW, won't do it now on my T1Rs. Time for more power..

I seem to be getting alot more Subaru comments lately rather than Volvo ones.

Dude got offended the other day when i told him it's a Nissan.

He reckons its a Subura body with nissan badges and driveline.

I get a lot of Subaru comments as well. How dare he claim its a Subaru body? He must have some brain issues that reduce his ability to see shapes properly.

Pretty much for me comments are ranked as follows:

1: Nice Volvo

2: What model Subaru is that?

3: Looks like a Hearse

4: What the f**k is that? (from older people particularly while they stare blankly at the double headed unicorn...)

5: Is that some kind of Falcon or Commodore?

My wife told me a great Volvo story.

Today she was out in the M35 and stopped at a car yard to look at a small car for my daughter who just got her learner's permit.

One of the salesman looks out to the street and says "Yeah, you don't want her driving your nice Volvo".

"It's not a Volvo" my wife says, followed by some puzzled looks on the salesmen's faces.

Then after a very long time one says, "Is that one of them imported Skyline jobs.....?" To which the other one says, "But it's a wagon...?"

I love it! :)

I'm a bit sad today I was told my car was fake!!!!what dose that mean?????he said they never made a skyline wagon?????so much for my autech 260rs.

Classic! :)

Should be able to get out of paying speeding/parking tickets, due to your car not being real...

Question is; if it isn't a car, WTF is it?

my mate attempted to do a brake burnout in my stagea the other night .. i wasnt impressed. however it did have the power to start spining the rear quite easily sporting 245's ..but again wasnt impressed on my brand new 2.2k of tyres.. last time hes driving it :)

Wot if u got an R30? Can I still play???

Lol, I don't mind... :D

Worked with a guy who looked at my old S3 r31 wagon, says "Oh cool, you've got one of those 6 cylinder Pintaras" yeah...

original Lolvo... by PMC or Prince Motor Company. My old man stumbled on a original handbook for one of these - fleabay'd it, it got over $120AUD!

Someone still has one.... somewhere in Japan!

Bit of history for you kids :P

    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
