mxtcy parked at HJ's on west terrace, white 33 with 3 spoke white wheels in freedom too (if ur on here, i was one of the 4 ppl standing undercover chatting with mates/laughing at drunken mates in magna ur mate thought was a chaser :))

yeah Brad - I have had a few people offer to buy the R34 from me already :)

Sorry didn't see you Heslo!

No haven't sold the S15 yet :whistling: - it is at a mates car yard and I don't think he is trying hard to sell it at all. Might grab it back from him and just put a $30k sign on it and sit it out on North East Rd for a weekend - I am sure it will sell in 2 minutes flat at that price. Tell your friends I will take $30k for it now, and save me the trouble! Means I will be losing $40k on a 4 year old car, but what can you do?!

Spotted Mick in SIR033 this arvo on Grand Junction Road and had a chat with him - damn that GTR is hot - someone off here should buy it so it stays in the 'club'.

Wow you must of been quick i was only there for about 5 minutes, needed phone credit. Man i was so tired that night went home and crashed and didn't get up till 6pm the next day!!!!

all in the timing.. :D i was parkred at freedom (in mates car tho) and went into HJ's for food haha. :D

take it apart n sell the 'performance parts' n ull get some of ur money back lol

spotted Maxx on goodwood rd last nite

^ lol

spotted nightcrawler just b4, was getting my alarm fixed, got replacement part from melb, but the plug was diff so had 2 do some special connection. the guy mentioned he was waiting 4 u 2 come past 2 adjust ur alarm cos it keeps going off. funny how i saw u straight afta lol.

which alarm did u end up getting Vange

Saw -SKYLINE- at D1 Garagre yesterday.........orange looking good man, stands out like dogs balls!

Yeah cheers man!! Had a new clutch put in yesterday as the old one was at the end of its life so i put something decent in....... Exedy 3 puck racing clutch with TODA lightened fly wheel, and man has it made a huge difference....... the engine response has picked up enormously!!

    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
