Guys/Girls,

Anyone know where i can borrow a Tap and Die set from like now or early tomorow?????

when i put my steering wheel on about a year ago i cross threaded the 19/18mm nut that holds it on to the steering column... never bothered to fix it until i got bored today and took it off (was originally too scared cause it wouldnt come off at all...) and now i want to put it back on before tomorows race... anyone know anyone with one i can borow for about 20mins???

Damn it, if only you tell me a bit early would have been good. I work at WURTH AUST so things like that is easy fix but i just got home from work and as you know i'm having tomorow off as well so ....can't just turn up tomorow at work for something then leave !

well ur racing so u only need to go straight

get the car towed there, then just race and have a shifter holding onto the steering thing or something

your gonna lose anyway arent you? wasnt that the plan?

p.s: buy a puppy

ha ha, I was actually starting to think "tap and die" was a metaphor:

tap the accelerator and the car dies

tap the accelerator and turbo dies etc

or

tap into the race and die of embarassment...

I will stop there :D

stfu gordon!! wheres ur car again? no not the clapped out ford.

dont worry it will be fine to get there and back i just wanted to finally fix something thats been bugging me for a year... but not enough for me to bother fixing rofl.

new forcast now... looks like its going to be windy with SOME showers.... so it should be good to go!!

seriously though Ni - throw in some teflon tape for good measure!

And good luck with the race - hopefully it happens this time :D

Regardless of who wins, you will have fun and hopefully crack some nice times too.

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
