4. R31Nismoid - Cause he don't take no shit

:verymad: ROFL

i hate inexperienced p-platers,as soon as they get a their license they want a high powered car which they cant handle and kill themselves,friends and innocent people......inexperience+high powered cars = death.

as i was saying the twit is a perfect example of a p-plater who thinks he knows it all and has plenty of experience cause hes driven a Ferrari yet hes that stupid to think that brakes,tyres,suspension & handling aint important enough,hes a typical big headed smart ass when people recommend what he should do hes nothing but a prick to them.

Well could you please refrain from branding all P platers like that then? We have rights too! (though their slowly being removed)

im not branding all p-platers like that,im branding the p-platers and any other moron who wants to be a hoon and drive around like their indestructable & screwing it up for me,you and everyone else.

i was just stating the facts and what ive seen personally,p-platers screwed it for themselves by using streets as a drag strip and all the deaths from driving high performance cars which obviously were out of their league+their inexperience.

i cant even go out for a relaxing drive in my skyline without p-platers in their shit box commodores trying to race me & they come up beside me so i tell them to f**k off through the window,ive even been pulled over by the cops when i took my misses to the hospital cause she was in labour cause a dick head p-plater was trying to race me one night,the cops accused me of street racing until they seen my wife.

im serious when i say that every guy that has tried to race me on the street is a p-plater,ive had others who are on their full's who offered to go to the track which is obviously the smart idea.

how i said,its the majority of hoon p-platers that are ruining it for the rest of yous,its on the news at least twice a week.

ok... p plater = driving for about 5 mins... ever wonder why EVERY SINGLE older driver thinks p platers cant drive?

feel free to dig up this thread in 10 years and agree with me

Haha in defense of us P-Platers, i just finished putting a heavy duty clutch, R33 GT-R Brembo brakes, Yoko tires, and Split Fire coil packs on my R34 GT Skyline... Not even gonna think about installing a turbo until im off my P's. The only modification ive done to the engine is the K&N air filter. The only mods i can see myself doing in the near future would be things like higher temperature HID headlights. Not even gonna think about touching the power output until im off my P's and have experience driving a car that will stay on the road.

Clearly handling is waaaaaay more important than power priority wise, what point is there in having 2000hp at the wheels when all the car does is tail out and spin the wheels when you try to take off? Might do a nice skid, but it sure as hell wont go quick. Nah, down-force, traction and control is what its all about

    • Hey y'all! I'm curious about how y'all go about widebodying your cars. I noticed that when running a square setup, my front wheels are a bit more tucked in than my rear wheels. Not by much, maybe 5-10mm. This leads me to wonder - when I widebody, should I use narrower front flares and wider rear flares? I found a set of 40mm rear flares that I really like, and was thinking of pairing them with some 18mm front flares, but I don't want the car to look strange. How have others done this? Note, I'm in a sedan. Thanks!
    • And if it was anything other than an auto tranny part, it might be a problem. But seeing as all auto trannies belong in the recycling bin, it's fine.
    • I have an R32 Fenix rad. It is good.
    • All the schemas I can see, indicate your typical setup of ATF 'cooler' (read: heat exchanger) in the bottom radiator tank..ie; https://nissan.epc-data.com/stagea/wgnc34/5413-rb25det/engine/214/ ...but I can prattle on a bit here. These trannies have a thermistor in the sump ~ the TCU reads this and 1. bumps the line pressure up when the ATF is 'cold' and 2. prevents the TC lockup clutch from operating, until the ATF comes up to minimum operating temp (keeps the ATF 'churning' through the TC so it heats up quicker) -- trigger point is around 55C. In these conditions, the engine coolant temperature rises faster than the ATF temperature, and also helps heat the ATF up, which is why it's best to think of the in radiator tank setup as a heat exchanger ; the heat can flow in both directions... ...with these trannies, the 'hot' ATF comes out the front banjo bolt, flows through the cooler/heat exchanger, and returns to the box  via the rear banjo bolt. This gets a mention, due to the wildly different opinions wrt running auto trans fluid coolers ~ do you bypass the in radiator tank altogether, or put the cooler inline with the in radiator tank system...and then, do you put the additional cooler before of after the in radiator tank system?... ....fact is the nominal engine operating temp (roughly 75C), happens to be the ideal temperature for the ATF used in these trannies as well (no surprises there), so for the in radiator tank system to actually 'cool' the ATF, the ATF temp has to be hotter than that...lets say 100C -- you've got 25C of 'excess' heat, (slowly) pumping into the 75C coolant. This part of the equation changes drastically, when you've got 100C ATF flowing through an air cooled radiator ; you can move a lot more excess heat, faster ~ it is possible to cool the ATF 'too much' as it were...(climate matters a lot)... ...in an 'ideal' setup, what you're really trying to control here, is flash heating of the ATF, primarily produced by the TC interface. In a perfect world, wrt auto trans oil cooling, you want a dedicated trans cooler with builtin thermostatic valving - they exist. These should be run inline and before the in radiator tank system ~ when 'cold' the valving bypasses the fin stack, allowing the ATF to flow direct to the in radiator tank heat exchanger, so it works 'as intended' with helping heat the ATF up. When 'hot' (iirc it was 50C threshold), the valving shuts forcing the ATF through the cooler fin stack, and onto the in radiator tank heat exchanger...and you sort of think of it as a 'thermal conditioner' of sorts...ie; if you did cool your ATF down to 65C, the coolant will add a little heat, otherwise it works as intended... ...the 'hot' ATF coming from the front bango bolt, is instantiated from the TC when in use, so all/any flash heated oil, flows to the fluid-to-air cooler first, and because of the greater heat differential, you can get rid of this heat fast. Just how big (BTU/h) this cooler needs to be to effectively dissipate this TC flash heat, is the charm...too many variables to discuss here, but I just wanted to point out the nitty-gritty of automatic trans fluid coolers ~ they're a different beastie to what most ppl think of when considering an 'oil cooler'... /3.5cents   
    • Been a busy but productive day. Axle and hubs acquired. All fitted up after a bit of modifying. Need to sort out wider mudguards and running light reflector covers but other than that the trailer is gooood to go !!
