haha, it my first smash car, drift lol, so no doubt the rust will be the last of my worries once she starts being a regular track hack :rolleyes:

But yeh, if it lasts me a year with no damge......or i cant resist the temptation (which i know will come first lol) i will pull the motor out one weekend n paint it up :thumbsup:

BAHAHAHAHAHA :nyaanyaa:. Pretty much hey. But in saying that, in both my 31's that ive done, have only ever found rust under battery tray for obvious reasons and behind quater panel where the front window valley drains. So not that bad for 22 year old cars..

^^ thanks bud, i like to be diff lol

clutchburndout, if that was sarcastic i missed it......no dig intended.

I happen to love r31's. If u dont like them not my problem, at the end of the day yes its still a 31, but i do things to prove to myself that i can do it and not be part of the "in" crowd to do a conversion that a million ppl have done before. As far as i know im the first person in australia to have done this to a 31....that means something to ME. I have my weekend toy with a 25 in it now, that i grew up as a 9yo boy driving around my paddock n since then i have loved them.........each to their own, thats wat makes us individuals i guess :)

" The OP was originally talking about putting a windsor in her skyline Ti burnout car, hence my post a engine originally designed for NASCAR back in the sixties. There are lots of great engines out there soooo why stick to 1 brand and its the OP's money. AaronNM35.....Cool Starry Bra! "

I was actually talking about a cleveland not a windsor. :glare:

Clev 90 degree V

Windsor is 60 degree v

so same cubic capacity... plus a 4 inch bore x 3 1/2 inch stroke

Both share those dimensionsn but Clevo bottom end is heaps stronger than a Windsor....

:happy:

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
