Probably be "fun" carless for a few months. Money is going to a family car.

Might buy something at bonus time. Will see how I go without a car for a while first

Jan 23 al.

Which Qashqai Dia you go for? We are looking at the better spec petrol one

Nice!

I got the Ti I think it is? It's top of the range petrol fwd model fully loaded with everything you can think of. Really good on fuel too

Yeah good man I mean it's not what I'm used to jumping out of the lexus & audi, but I tell Ya what it does more than the prestige cars do for half the price only thing that would have been good is opening sunroof instead of the big glass moon roof

For a family car I reckon it's perfect good size I've had 4 adult men in there no issues features all work really well. Drives nice slightly sluggish but you don't buy it for speed, handles well though not too heavy like some others. My boss got his wife the top of range crv which is bit more spacious but a fair bit more money from memory and slightly less features but that's the only similar thing I'd consider the mazda / ford etc are inferior

If ya were local Id say come suss it out without a salesmen bustin ya balls etc but a bit too far lol

4cyl 2.0i Unleaded Manual = 1400kg braked

4cyl 2.0i Unleaded CVT = 1200kg braked
4cyl 1.6 Diesel CVT = 1400kg braked

Kerb weight is about 1400kg petrol manual up to 1600kg diesel cvt (unladen)... so after loading it is recommending kinda in the ballpark of the 75% towing recommendation.

wow you bought a Dualis? How come you didn't go X-trail for proper 4wd? Or a skyline crossover... Slightly older but better options and more refined feels being an Infiniti.

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
