Gladly, it's warmer here.

How've you been Simon? Feeling old yet? Hang overs lasting for days now as opposed to hours?

16c atm, max 18... but sunny and clear skies :)

Yeha, I'm feeling old :P

Also, no hangover... not drinking this month (apart from tonight, going out to dinner with some friends)

Not? Drinking? What is this concept? How does this work?

Whatever happened to the cool Simon?

These ratings on our profiles, how is that calculated? Why am I at excellent and grant at bad? Is that a warn bar or something?

There was like/unlike button (or reputation thing, can't remember, remembered ns.com had similar thing) on this forum back then which everyone unliked posts of my ranting on a car I had for 3 months back then (late 2010/2011), it went as far as -90 or something, yep I was shit flamin mongrel back then lol.

Not sure how did it reduce over time :/

I'm at 71 and have no idea how I got that high! Mines bigger than everyone else's. maybe it's a black person thing. ;)

hooray for camshaft shopping.

of course nothing can be bough from the same supplier... nobody likes Tomei springs, JUN charge a fortune for springs and retainers but their camshafts are $200 cheaper than average :confused:, JWT don't make springs or retainers, nobody likes BC camshafts....

Titman, yeah I saw the ending coming to some degree, it all felt a bit up in the air, but I was entertained!

Also I'll maybe be in for dat bbh tomorrow depending on time etc. Let me know brahs.

    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.  
    • No, you're wrong, and you've always been wrong about this. The Nismo has 2 sets of openings. One is a real 2-way, and the other is a 1-way. There is no 1.5-way possible with the ramps that they offer. A real 1.5-way does exist. That Cusco stuff I posted is a prime example. If the forward drive ramps are, say 55°, and the overrun ramps are, say, 30°, then you will get about half as much LSD effect on overrun than you do on drive. It is real, it realy works. OK, you're slightly right. The Nismo has 55° and 45° ramps on the 2-way, so it does offer less LSD effect on overrun. But, I think that just means that they've (probably) sensibly established that you do not want actually equal LSD effect on overrun. You just want "quite a lot, but not quite as much as the drive LSD effect".
    • Just wanted to unearth this and post my baby with the new front ❤️😝 Took her to my wedding rehearsal today. Next up is getting wide skirts (after wedding)
