these are the people cops should be getting, but im sure the cops would see the car with no numberplates but let it go and continue getting those cars with noisy exhausts instead.

It was completely rebuilt. Billet straight cut 1st-4th gears, billet crown wheel and pinion shaft, new diff bearings, Nismo mechanical 1.5way LSD, hydraulic clutch conversion. Had it in the car for all of a trip from Bayswater to Healesville when the circlip popped off the end of the shaft, lodged itself elsewhere in the gearbox and the car was stuck in 5th gear which made for a very interesting and difficult tow home since the car wouldn't roll ;)

Gearbox was out of the car on Tuesday, landed in Sydney on Wednesday, got fixed and sent on Thursday arrived back in Melbourne this afternoon and I got the car back this evening.

I haven't even driven it yet :) The Pulsar was auto beforehand, I'd been collecting parts for this conversion since November DECA last year when I pulled the car off the road.

Don't presume the worst all the time Shan :)

Respray to me = The paint faded over the last 18 years. Full respray to freshen it up.

Head/turbo condition = Yeah, maybe he has blown the turbo.. But it has a new one now so it's all good? I fail to see a problem.

Trust me I've seen enough dropkicks come through the doors at the panelbeaters to know why someone resprays their cars or changes head and turbo.

NO ONE resprays their car for the hell of it in the same colour it was before. They only ever respray the car in the same colour to cover up something or to fix damage.

If you're lucky, it's cos of faded paint. Worst case scenario its cos it had a frontal, or was a VIV car, or a rebirth. You're just as big a dropkick if you're naive enough to believe the in the kindness of the human spirit when it comes to used car sales. If you believe the worst it makes the seller work harder to sell the car to you, or at least be more willing to drop the price. Don't delude yourself and buy a car with glazed over eyes.

Cops are enforcing the road rules on VicRoads behalf...so yeah they have the power to f**k you up, but they usually only bother with trucks etc.

Saw today two vicroads cars and an unmarked cop car pulled over on the grass section between the eastern freeway. 3 guys talking to each other.

Sounds like they were getting ready to ram more people lol

What are they goin for?

Color pref would be black, gunmetal, white, silver...

white is classic on a 32, like bayside blue on a 34 and midnight purple on a 33.

20k or so for a mint 94 model.

    • 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.  
    • No, you're wrong, and you've always been wrong about this. The Nismo has 2 sets of openings. One is a real 2-way, and the other is a 1-way. There is no 1.5-way possible with the ramps that they offer. A real 1.5-way does exist. That Cusco stuff I posted is a prime example. If the forward drive ramps are, say 55°, and the overrun ramps are, say, 30°, then you will get about half as much LSD effect on overrun than you do on drive. It is real, it realy works. OK, you're slightly right. The Nismo has 55° and 45° ramps on the 2-way, so it does offer less LSD effect on overrun. But, I think that just means that they've (probably) sensibly established that you do not want actually equal LSD effect on overrun. You just want "quite a lot, but not quite as much as the drive LSD effect".
    • Just wanted to unearth this and post my baby with the new front ❤️😝 Took her to my wedding rehearsal today. Next up is getting wide skirts (after wedding)
