Hey guys,

Browsing the net today, came across this creation. Only thing is. I'm not sure what to think about it. I like it because its a Murcielago. I don't think i like the body "additions" they've put on, such as the front bar diffuser? And the big air ducts on the side skirts?

Anyway,

tell me what you think?

Off topic ... just a tad... but...

I'd like to see something like a SHOWROOM MUSEUM of GTRs and SKYLINES just like they have 2X Lamborghini Museums.

Some of the cars can be perhaps 'donated' for a month or two of each year by its fastidious owner.

I've seen 1X Lamborghini Museum at Sant 'Agata half an hour east of Modena

There's a Ducati Museum and a Maserati Museum at Modena (-got chucked out of the Maserati Service area there lol)

Yes, I saw the Ferrari Museum and Test Track at Maranello half an hour south of Modena

And I thought... Wouldn't it be nice to have a GTR and SKYLINES Museum to visit, have cruises there, technical info. sourcing

Yes, I'm aware of a bit of what's been done in Japan, and I'm aware of how much another 'Terry' has put into a Racing Nissan display at Gosford (Trackside Rsetaurant), but I must say that Lamborghinis have done their homework superbly with

i) The manufacturing plant able to be viewed from the top floor of the museum thru' huge glass panels overlooking a dust-free area

ii) A Diablo planted on a wall, and when you cross a hidden beam, it plays a recording of the thing screaming around a test track

iii) Project Cars

iv) Special Edition Countaches

v) Miura

vi) Racing Lambos still in livery

vii) New ones for sale in the foyer

viii) History of how Lamborghini Snr was told by Enzo to go back and fix up tractors rather than coach Ferrari how to make a decent clutch > a wall to wall history of B&W photos to modern day colour shots

ix) On the other side of the foyer - an aftermarket shop with Bulls everywhere on ties, leather jackets, golf equipment, valises

Ferrari is nowhere near as friendly. The manufacturing is hush-hush unless you'd bought one or had been on a medical conference package. Ferrari was still interesting and glitzy, but I felt cramped and the cars were cramped. It seemed to be more of a take-it-or-leave-it attitude. Whereas the staff at Lambo wanted to know where you came from yaddayadda. I did get some dvd footage of the service area too before I got chucked out of that too (along with Maserati). Yeh naughty boy. :blink:

Saw Lambo service technicians doing computer mapping of cars in the car park before they'd fang it up the street for a run. Whilst driving to a local store for lunch in that little township, it was nothing unusual to a see another Lambo heading back to the Service Dept.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By JC71 · Posted

      sold listed as a Tomei LSD 1.5 Way For 1998+ Nissan Skyline ER34 25GT RB25DE w/Open R200 https://www.ebay.com/itm/174006114594?campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms=&campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=71883f2ccc571356e0a757bc7adfdde2&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms= it went in like butter all gears, alignment, back lash etc, rotation and clearances correct, and if rolling all rotates smooth and free when coasting down road , clutch in or out over 10 mph smooth... its the binding, clunking and jerking from a stop that is most concerning, also seems like its going to tear the tires off in 10 miles of normal road driving.

      What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By JC71 · Posted

      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?
