Ever driven next to one of those small trucks or near the back of a government bus with your window down, ear piercing at best, double standards I'm thinking.

When you have a car that can carry 60-odd people I am sure the government won't mind you creating an little extra noise due to the savings on emissions.

If you look up the EPA study on emissions from buses, you will find that the amount pollution out weighs the payload of people, caused from the diesel fuel. Gas is a much better alternative. I can’t remember the exact figure but it was around 1:1.3. Maybe they should make these buses louder? And if your asking yourself why do they want us to take the bus, the main reason is traffic congestion. I think gas buses are a damn good idea. :)

Almost all the buses I catch are natural gas, then again I am near the CBD on very busy bus routes...

And I was only trying to stir :)

yeh in the same bust last night  

an r32 gtr got impounded for 3 months

number plates were TURBOS its maroon

if anyones seen it around

I was at some runs that were happening a few weeks ago and that was one of the cars that was running- with an rx3 i think it was- the guys were trying to convince me to run them

Yeah they should have the race track open more so I can go there whenever I want to drive fast.

get organised - where is the underground? what happened to the good old days when the oldies scanned the police? Maybe set up our own network of citywide cameras and call it a public service where we can monitor the traffic too.

find out where those disrespecting cops who think we should race during the day live.

Even if I opened a farm to racing, I'd probably get sued when someone gets hurt. Is there a way everyone can sign disclaimers for farm racing?

open up a racing suburb where the law says we can race all night.

    • 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)
