edit: Harsh did you get done on the prinny?

LOL!!! so much interest...lol....nah..it was on my way to work in my commo....freakn truck was doing 40 in a 60 zone and was stuck in traffic in a way that i did get a chance to overtake tht shit...got frustrated and when i got the chance i just let it rip..(frustration on roads is not good...lol)...co coincidently it was down the hil so when i reved tht shit heap, it accel more than expected and hit 90-95 i think....undercover was there and caught me...lol

pretty much just wasnt my day and wrong place at the wrong time...like u said Adam...i am USUALLY sensible but hey my luck had to run out soon...lucky its only 1 month...n got heaps of plans what to do in that month when i save bucket loads of money since i cant drive :P

Wow Adam congratulations! That's incredible! She must have been stoked :D

I'm tooooootally down for this one! Car is in having a facial at the moment so am keen for a meet. Plus love Jason Statham.

See you all there.

yes as long as your receiver can tune in to the frequency they broadcast at the drive-in, i think it's somewhere around 84-87 MHz FM. Japanese radios typically only receive in the frequency range 76 to 90 MHz FM so that should be fine.

^^^^ NOPE!!! the drive ins range is in the 90s....i have my stock jap radio...didnt work...had to hire a radio from the place for $2 bucks..i think...or something small...

If you got jap radio in ur car...then ull have to do that or sit in someones car or just park ur car between two cars who has aftermarket unit and get them to have their volume up and windows down...i had to do that for the first time i went for this drive in movie night....

    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
