mines deleted it himself... he was sick of people bitching at him. at the later stages of the thread it got out of hand and if mines didn't delete it, i'm sure a mod would have been tempted to close it.

also note this thread started a few mins after mines deleted the thread.

It would have been preferable to have it closed rather than deleted, I don't suppose an admin can resurrect it and just close it. The bad thing about it being deleted is now people will either forget what a knob he is or new users will just not know about his "accidents", and start giving him credibility again. Not to mention start giving him praise over the purchase of his new GTR unaware that he's incapable of driving either 4WD or RWD.

Somehow that thread needs to be remembered. And if he changes his name, we need to be aware of it. I for one am sick of wanktards like him giving out stupid advice and opinions when they have no clue themselves about anything (eg, "GTS-t is not powerful enough, GTR all the way!" "Mobil 1 is the best fuel" "Why are you driving a Maxima?" etc)

I do not like flaming people as a general rule but this guy goes beyond the pale. He knows nothing about cars but pretends to know everything, can't drive, can't write constructive forum posts... so why is he even here? At worst he should stick to lurking, at best he should just bugger off altogether.

he pissed a lot of people off... it's a shitload easier to yell at someone you dislike. plus he didn't pay for the car. oh and it was his second write off. lots of things amounted to 12 pages of abuse.

Dave, the reason he copped shit wasn't that he crashed a GTR, it was because (a) he talks bollocks on these forums, (B) he's already crashed another car by being a dickhead, © he didn't pay for either car he wrote off himself, and (d) he wants to replace the car he wrote off with another GTR which he will probably write off in the same way again.

Still, it's not all his own fault. At least some of the responsibility has to rest on his parents.

I thought users didn't have the right to delete an entire thread if there were posts in it??They didn't use to anyhow! I think that is the way it should be.. People shouldn't always be able to hide the evidence if people disagree with them or set them straight.

I'm fully with JimX - i think that was a very important thread and some important advice and comments in there and some different perspectives. While there were some negatives, it also shows there isn't room in here for people like that and keeps a lot of the wanna be dickheads off here, and hopefully off buying a skyline.

There was a lot of abuse in there, but quite rightly so.. and also some wise words from all sides of the fence i think. It was one of the best threads on SAU for a long time I thought!

But rrrage.. in real life if you were say, a politician and you called someone a "sheep ****ing homosexual" (for instance), and a journalist went and heard that and publicised that its not as if you can go "oh i take that back, i delete it".. and all associated references and articles on that were deleted like u never said it !?- The real world don't work like that!

Same if you said you wanted to bone your best friend's girlfriend.. then later you just go 'oh I'll DELETE that i ever said that and it'll be all ok".. world don't work like that.. here should be no difference.

Also, dont you think its funny how there have been other people just like him but crashed their GTS etc (or rolled it) and they dont get any shit cos it wasnt in a GTR.......
Only reason I (and others) gave him any shit was cause he pissed me off with his incessant ramblings. I'd already decided he was a wanker within his first 10 posts. I learned to ignore it and just hoped he would get bored with the forums.

As I said in my one and only post in his accident thread, I saw it coming, I always thought he was a wanker, and this just proved it.

:werd:

(e) he's a wanker

(f) he didn't insure a $40000 car

(g) he's a knob

(h) he still believed he was a good driver and was not at fault

(i) he's a fool

(j) he wanted to repair his car, then he didn't, then he did

(k) he's a toss

(l) he's a shit speaker

(m) he's a wanker

I couldn't believe how quickly the thread grew. Plenty of abuse and also plenty of sympathy from those who didn't dislike Denis or hadn't been witness to his ramblings. It DID get out of hand in the end though. Perhaps a better option would have been just to lock the thread as is usually done...

Did anybody save any of the pics he took? If you could post them here, it would be much appreciated. I have a shrine to our long lost skylines...

Well, I didn't even get a chance to post a reply because entire pages were appearing before I had finished reading the previous, I always read entire threads before posting and the sucker was gone before I got the chance. There will always be people who speak before they think as there will always be kids that get gtr's for free. Mines-Datsun needs to do alot of growing up and deserved every bit of flamage as a result of his childish rantings. The original thread should be made accsessable and locked for the benefit of others, and should be located in a new section called Rampant Stupidity. I have done some very dangerous and stupid things when I was younger and accepted the resultant flamage from my elders and peers at the time. had forums of this nature been available at the time I would not have posted such misadventures, and if I had I would have deleted it too and never returned. But that's me. :)

guys - forum members have always been able to delete their own threads....it's the way the software has always worked...

if one of the mods had deleted it, then maybe we'd consider bringing it back and locking it, but since minesdatsun did it, well - it's his right to do so.

most regulars on here have long memories...i sure most of us know who's a knob and who isn't ;)

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By S1_C34 · Posted

      I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.

      CD009 RB Conversion

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.

      Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell

      R32 GTST - 600KW+ RB28/CD009 Build

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups.

      The Evolution Of "night Fury"

      By jez NF · Posted

      75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
