Just waved goodbye to my 20 gearbox, the dude that picked it up rocked up in something Ive never seen or heard of. a 1984 C32 Laurel. VG20 single turbo. What an old school cruiser! Much want.

You've never heard of a Laurel? :P

well after a long chat with paul today,

my engine is nearly done! paul is chucking some extra bits in the head to make it a tad nicer :P

he is also hitting me up with some red r racing stickers and a coilpack cover with RRR019 etched into it...

he said all his engines will be stamped with RRR###

hes so mad! cant wait!

Wow! .. just wow.

Spent the last hour or so applying the 'glassylite' treatment on my R34 headlights. The drivers-side headlight was pretty much okay (no yellowing or discoloration), but passenger-side was starting to yellow again. I'd previously tried using various products on the passenger-side headlight and it would look pretty good for maybe 3-6 months but still eventually start yellowing again.

This glassylite product has brought them up way better than the other products - they're amazingly clear now. I'm also hoping the final application - a UV sealant - actually works like they claim, and prevents the yellowing happening again. I guess time will tell whether it actually works, but given what I've seen tonight, I'm stoked.

Gawd, I sound like an advertisement. RubyRS4 - this is the product I mentioned I was gonna try on my headlights after seeing yours. I reckon for the price ($35 odd including p&h) it's worth giving it a shot. I got it from their website, but it also often pops up on eBay. Anyways... lol .. I'm gonna shut up now :)

When is it acceptable to start adding female work collegues on FB? :)

add them now.

Get digital before you get physical.

Adding them on facebook, not only shows off your detective skills, but shows that you are confident. Ladies can smell fear. Much like bears that smell the menstruation... :)

    • You're already well into "gearbox is a consumable" territory there. A billet plate will either make it (effectively) 1% stronbger or make it last one more pass. At some point you'll probably tear 3rd gear into small chunks and regret all the life decisions that came before it.
    • ..and forum.r31skylineclub has been down all week....anyone know why?
    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?
