give it a hit in the wet around a corner and youll see the torque gauge move :P

ive actually worked out how to get the stagea sideways in the wet!!

It must be rocket science if it took you to work it out lol.

I'd prefer not to be sidewise unless I'm in a skidpan :dry:

ARX got he 6cd radio from what I have seen. that said the wiring IS THERE! if you are up for it find the cluster and plug it in.

Here's one I found, new, on rhdjapan.com: http://www.rhdjapan.com/jdm-low/NISMO-M35-...ers-White-56190

ahh damn!!! ok ill find more shit you guys dont have in your povo packs :P

LOL, cue the games of "Hey, have you got one of these???"

lol it's easy to get it sideways in the wet..

i got it sideways about 5 times on my way home..(unintended)

easy to control..

im used to all wheel slides coming from a bunch of awd performance cars..

then again..

I might have to try harder lol

I think mine sits a bit steadier due to Nismo S-Tune suspension, the weight doesn't move around quiet as much as standard suspension M35's.

hahaha yes i cant wait for that tonight! whos coming???

and stephen, yeah firmer suspension will make it MUCH easier to get sideways. hence why it took me longer, a wet night and 5 people in the car :P

2003 RS FOUR here, with the guages in the centre (except my boost guage is broken - barely works - 99% of the time it sits on full vacuum even under heavy throttle when i can hear the turbo spooling).

no "stagea" on door sills, no leather, no heated seats, no rear air-con vents... you guys suck lol :(

but hey...i do have guages...even if only 2 of them are working (but the volts one isn't very interesting and i dont drive fast enough for the front torque one to move much either).

no overdrive button - but then s2 stageas dont have one either. no real need when you have tiptronic.

Broken boost gauge eh? Yep, me too.

Hasn't worked properly since 2 weeks after I got it.

Had a number of looks at it and so have RE Customs.. Nothing doing.

Have given up on it and will be looking at getting a Nismo cluster (in the distant future).

Jack one rear wheel off the ground, with handbrake off, rotate wheel. If wheel turns, no lsd. Friction from lsd will prevent you from rotating wheel. Good luck, hopefully more free lsd's will be found!

Erm, just so you know, with one wheel up and handbrake off, my old man's Prado's wheel can be rotated & it has an LSD.

Maybe I will just wait 'till the weekend and see if there is anything stamped on it instead!

Yeh, you're right, spotted this with my mates supra a while ago, and it locks up hard on the street, but it still had resistance. wouldn't free wheel. It's more just a simple rule of thumb. Definitely will be something oil related on the diff tho'

In relation to the LSD and how do you know if you have it question, I have found that in the RS4-S, i can hear the LSD when turning 90 degrees up and out of our underground carpark. I am only doing 5 kph or less and can simply hear the inner tyre going "chirp chirp chirp chirp".

Hope this helps !

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
