Cool :)

Just remembered who bought it too.

My memory sucks these days.

Also I dont see Russ Newman's name on the entry list, anyone heard if the 32 is entering again this year?

Edit - just found him, in Open class this year

lol, you sure are a fountain of (mis)information zebra!!

but yeah spewing lofty is giving WTAC a pass this year. he can drive and they have been quietly playing with GTRs since jesus was in short pants. Jeff's shed is like an alladins cave of GTR.

the 180sx certainly has some bits and looks like some aero well set up as well, i have never herd anyone say to much horsepower is a bad thing before. Times are very quick are SA so i suspect it is well sorted

Any idea on what sort of times its running at Mallala?

Luke Fink

Really? Can he drive a car straight? He's a good drifter with great car control but does he know how to drive fast? I've never heard of him doing anything other than drift.

andrew you should drive it mate. don't let luke have all the fun...

Such a huge build with so much of your effort put into it mate, you need to enjoy it.

I dont fink its a good idea to have Luke drive it.

Ran a 1'12 on Sunday in the Philcom Rally. Steve Knight beat him in his evo with a 1'11. Also I don't know if Willall are bringing their cars up but RH9 would be another to watch if it does make the trip up there.

Should do alright with the long straight at EC then.

RH9? as in the 9'sec Drag R34 thats never run a 9?

well i did actualy make that up, but one could be forgiven for thinking that fink drives for andrew. if you have ever watched any of the drifter unleashed or motive dvds.

Im sure andrew will be driving. he was on a tv show (blood sweat and gears) driving jet200 in its first build state. did pretty well to if i recal correctly

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
