Hey Guys,

Awesome car Dean , was the first story i read and was late for work because of it.. :)

One thing i did find odd was the air filter placement, i never seen one done like this before, is there a reason for it..at first i thought it was under the bumper but looks like its beside the steering pump...

33s look so nice in red...

Thanks for the comments guys..

Well yeah off the turbo there is basically just a 45 degree down pipe with the filter on the end of it kinda facing down.. Besides the handbrake setup, its the next thing im changing. I want the filter to sit where the airbox normally is and im just going to put a vent in the bonnet just on top for some cold air...

I bought that magazine as part of a pack of 3, to read on the plane travelling to Sydney in January.

I actually watched your drift vids you posted up the other day Dean, and I remembered the personalised plate OBSEZT and put two and two together.

Lovely example of a 33, and congrats on the mag feature!

      I'm going to slap an old nismo logo sticker on my spare one and sell it to the land of the free for a thousand bucks

      Well - they have arrived.  And they are easy on the eye to put it mildly... These only have three bolts - but for a start there is a key that fits with vacuum like precision..  And as you can see by my ruler, the interface is large..   I listened to a podcast on HP Academy about Dan (KiwiCNC) and I'm more than comfortable he knows what he is doing. R35 Bearing assembly should arrive later today so can mock that up for a look. Can't wait to get these on and get some brake pressure logging too. IMG_3860.MP4

      I would be very confident that they are the same parts (the 2 different SKUs). It seems very clear that you can drop the cam in the 2-way opening, or in the other opening. If you arrange it in the other opening in the same way that you see any other 1-way diff, ie, with the flat of the cam up against the 1° side of the opening, then it would work as a 1-way. It can only spread the ramps when driving forwards - cannot spread the ramps on overrun. It would then appear obvious that if you put the cam into the opening "backwards", that you would get the angled flats of the cam working onto the "points" of the 1° side of the opening, which would give you ramp spread in both loading directions. I do wonder if the forward direction of the 1.5-way config is equivalent to the forward direction of the 2-way, seeing as the cams are flipped and the angled surfaces on those would need to be the same on each side - AND - clearly when installed in either the 2-way or 1-1ay configuration they are not intended to work exactly the same (the ramp angles on the 2-way are 10° different between forward and backward, and the ramp doesn't exist in the 1-way config). 'twere me, I think I would rather actually have a set of rings that offered the 2-way with two different sets of ramp angles, say the 55/45 of the existing design and maybe a 45/37.5 combo for a less aggressive effect), AND another set of rings with a dedicated 1.5-way opening and a dedicated 1-way opening. The 1.5-way opening would actually have the steeper angle on the overdrive side that causes it to be less pushy than the forward drive angle, like you see in many other diffs. But really - if this Nismo thing is thought out properly and all those surfaces work on each other the way that they need to, who am I to argue?
