Incase you kunts didn't know, just because you're on a mountain doesn't mean you have to drive like you're being chased...

Have fun rolling/dying while I cruise along enjoying the views lol

but its fun.

I'm too scared of dandy mountains. I saw a friend roll his car this the hill, while I was a passenger in another car.. Since then all the cruise that people organize through there I refuse to attend..

Especially when the paramedics said they didn't think he would make it. Shit f**ks you up

Sure shakes you up. Still get the odd shiver down the spine if I think about the accident while driving. Our paramedics expected dead bodies!

Yeh Dandenong mountains just scares me though. I think it's because I can picture exactly what happened. Arthur's seat you can't really get as much speed as you can at dande so yeh. And that's when my tyres were shonky lol

Stop making excuses lol, it's still dangerous wherever you are. The reality is that we either learn our lessons for good or we forget them in the heat of a moment, when stupid ideas are too fun to resist. Then you either die doing what you love or you make it through the havoc and eventually grow out of it. Arthur's seat is a much slower speed, I'll give you that. Sliding in towards the mountain, I reckon the worst you'd end up with is a fender bender. Bikes are even slower going up there, had to slip the clutch in 1st gear on some corners...

I too love a nice easy drive through the mountains, there's not much more pleasant. I don't drive fast through the mountains anymore, it doesn't thrill me like it used to. But the bike tells me to do bad things up there, which I guess is worse...

Moh I don't like them sorry, when I see skyline I think sports car - 5 spokes, etc not VIP or euro spec, although Alex managed to pull it off with his VIP spec rims would need the perfect stance.. but I never was a fan of the BBS style rim

that's just me though it comes down to your own choice don't forget :)

It's gotta look tough, and kinda classy. So, functional stance.

Other rim choice is bbs rs' and get custom lips made up.

Classy? What for it's not a g series it's an r32. f**k class make it look as tough as nails dude

Yeh lol but I don't do it going down the hill to me that's REALLY asking for it. But I'm over the whole doing skids thing I think. I got a good scare in this weather and havnt done it since. Just waiting now for wider wheels and tyres now, a good allingment and I should be safe again.

Ps. f**k semi slicks are shit in the wet. Never again

but its fun.

so is cocaine, don't mean you do it :domokun:

what semi's you running?

I just went to R888 and found them to have much mroe grip in the wet compared to previous tyres, was a big surprise

would not want to test them in a monsoon but in general much better

Nah they're just KU36 I didn't really have a choice in the matter as I'm borrowing them off Scott until my varrstoens get here. But even in the dry they are shit, I have absolutely no traction its a pain in the ass

thats fair but dont get those ugly ass pretzel looking things.

lmao, other choice is work equips.

r32 aint classy this is true

    • That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc. 
    • Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?
    • Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...
    • The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
    • Hi, i’m converted my r34 4dr auto to manual but need help with gearbox wiring. There are bunch of wires no idea which one for speedo drive, neutral, reverse can anyone help me. IMG_6860.mov
