but they are paying for it all yea? so why does it bother you? get them to pay the bill and it gets fixed, they dont pay it, it doesnt get fixed.

All because 2 Teeth broken off the crown wheel in the FWD Diff... And noone wants to touch it...

Man, if it was a skyline, it'd be like $300 for a new diff and it's good to go :P

bitch please, $150 will get you a complete 2nd hand diff in housing.

Probably wont buy new xbox or PS, I have both current gens and never ever use the things lol

probably like 30 hours all up on my xbox and like 4 hours on my PS, guess i use that for blurays sometimes though

I bought GT5 and a G27 combo for like $450 when it came out.. probably used it for like an hour lol

GT5 was shit compared to forza

Edited by UNR33L

Yeah I bought the G27 for like $450 or something before GT5 was released.... I've used it a few times, GT5 is more fun with the wheel, but definitely harder. Drift with it is awesome though :D

I'd sell my G27 in perfect condition for $250, it's been used about half a dozen times... just a little dusty from sitting in the cupboard for ages.

Extent of engine damage if anyone was interested:

hooray for engine rebuild and mi-goreng diet time!

Will be nice to sort out issues through and make it better than it was. Seriously, one adjustable cam gear and its set to 0 anyway *Jackie Chan*

Springs might not as been good as originally thought, cause theres not many left in 1 piece lol.

    • Maybe also really stiffly sprung track cars. Get the inside wheel up in a corner and all the fun stops. Also me sometimes (rarely) when I have to stand on the brake to convince the diff to drive the wheel that is still on the ground when I'm trying to diagonally get over severe driveway entrance, etc.
    • I feel like I'm missing something. You had an authorised installer come out and install a new alarm. Post install the car doesn't start, and you aren't getting the installer back to fix what they did wrong?
    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
