I had same thing, but I had Chris from NSPM, asked for a test drive did the paperwork and he said " do you know the area" said yes, and then he asked for my mob number so if i took longer then half hour he could check things ok.

service is awsome, just had my car serviced there. ben called me over issues they had found and was all done in under an hour. I tryed one or two on parra road, they asked for ' security deposit' before test drive and also hey had to ride along, and i dont like giving a car a boot with them in there..

again if in sydney you gotta check out Northshore Prestige as they are by far the best in my opinion.. also loved the evo's.. wasnt intrested in them but test drove one anyway lol

Seems that while the word "defamatory" is used in that statement put up to warn us we are to read as "no negative statements"?

Generally only a false statement could consitute defamation. So unless we post false statements, negative statements are not defamation. Maybe the conditions need to be reworded?

That said the owners of this site can't check every statement for accuracy and may be held accountable for our posts.

I wonder if the same could be said of missleading positive statements posted on the site?:starwars:

The RSFour came via Prestige Motor Sports in WA.It was sourced in Japan. Complied by Iamshe on the GC. Only prob was one worn tie rod end.So very happy with value and work ability.

All the problems since have been while doing mods. Had it years now.

Bought the 25G from a guy I stopped on the mountain to have a chat. He said he was selling it soon so I said I will take it when available. Perfect for my P plater.

Both are S1s, so any spare bars and panels I pick up will do both. And slowly upgrading the RS4 so all the bits go towards turboing the 25G to be an RS25GT. And it is RWD, Auto.

Go see the Russian Sergy at Version 1 imports. Hale St - Botany.

Bought 2 cars from him. His cars are really clean, compared to many of the Sydney dealers I've seen.

Just Jap at Kirrawee have some OK ones and they also have a 300KW staff car M35.

Base model 01-02 M35's with sub 80K kms can be had for 15-17K.

Whats so funny about? The point was- atleast they have additional services if he were to buy there, and that they have service and have access to parts for the cars they sell.

The sarcasm is quite narrow minded.

Agreed the Just Jap cars are OK but far off the quality I have seen around!... Yes they do offer a good service deal and probably offer a higher level of knowledge that the other 95% of workshops in Sydney on M35's!...IMO you are still better off doing your own basic services but each to there own! The parts access is not that great btw!...I have a bigger list of spare parts in my garage!

And here's a broad minded pointer on the statement I highlighted! There "statement" of having a 300AWKW M35 Stagea is laughable. Unless they have done some major work on it since the last time I saw it. Has it got a suction pipe? if no this mean's no 300AWKW's on BP98.....Does he have a GT30/71r or bigger? If no it means no 300AWKW's even on E85 without the suction pipe....If they have got the SP and Turbo how did they get past the throttle restriction or is it just a dyno queen with no power till 5,500rpm.......what ECU it's running...and the list goes on! From memory from the last time I saw the car you speak of it has a H/F turbo, Blitz FMIC, and a Blitz exhaust....maybe a EBC cannot remember that!....that get's it to about 180AWKW's.....and maxing out the injectors!

Point taken that they do offer some aftermarket parts though!

P.S. Sarcasm intended before....personally I would never quote what a dealer has told me (especially a power figure on a car) in open forum without expecting some sort of response....pretty narrow minded of you bud! nyaanyaa.gif

      Nismo GT Pro LSD configurations

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, the trouble with that ^^ is: The configuration shown is absolutely a 1-way, not a 1.5-way. There is no way that a 1.5-way can be said to offer LSD action only on acceleration. If Nismo cannot get that right, then it is impossible to believe their documentation. That ^ is not a 1.5 way setup. That is a 1-way.   And so now I have allowed all doubts to flourish and have gone back to look at the MotoIQ video. I originally made the mistake of believing him when he said "this is a 1.5-way" at the ~6:10 mark. Because what he did was take the gear assembly out of the 2-way opening and just rotate it one place to the left to drop it into the 1-way opening. When he dropped it in there, the cam was "backwards" compared to the correct orientation shown in all other photos of that config. The flat shold have been facing the 1° ramp side of the opening, not the 55° ramp side. And I thought, "gee that's cute", but I was concerned at the time, when he put the other ring back on, that the gap between the rings looked like it was wider then in the 2-way config. And then I said a lot of things in my long post on Tuesday that could only make sense if the guy from MotoIQ was correct about what he'd done. BUT... I have now done my homework. I grabbed a frame of the video with the 2-way config, and then grabbed another with the "1.5-way" config, snipped out the cam and opening of that frame and just pasted it direct on top of the 2-way config. I scaled it so that the triangular opening was almost exactly the same height in both. AND.... the gap between the plates is wider with the cam installed in the triangualr opening backwards. That is.... it cannot go together that way. There would be massive force on the plates all the time, if you could even reassemble it.  So, My statement on the matter? The Nismo diff is actually only a 2-way and 1-way. There is no 1.5-way option in it, regardless of what they say. Here's a photo of a real 1.5-way ramp opening from Cusco (along with the 1 way option). And the full set of 1 through 2 way options from their racing diff, which is not same-same as what we'd typically be using, but...the cams work the same. A little blurry, but it comes from this Cusco doc, which is quite helpful. AND.... Cusco do in fact do what I suggested would be sensible, which is to have rings that do 1 and 1.5, and 1.5 and 2. Separately.

      Well it wasn't as easy as I thought.... and it also wasn't in my original manual which I did end up finding. They discuss the process in the Nismo catalogue though and it requires slight machining. Page 145.  NISMO PARTS CATALOGUE 2020

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now.
