hi -

WTB RB25det head or 25 with a blown bottom end - only really want the top -

Hey mate,

I have a few lying around the shop if you want. Is there any preference on internals like cams or no cams or what... pm me

Does anyone have a suitable 5x114.3 17" rim to use as a spare? Anything really, but preferably 8" maybe 9" wide.

I figure it would be better to have a similar size spare rather than the good old yellow space saver. :yucky:

Is there POPO issues with this?

Cheers.

Rob.

Do you want to carry something as big/heavy as a full spare around with you? The space saver is bad enough. TBH I have no idea why I haven't taken mine out yet... That should be one of my next "things you've done to your car lately" entries.... :)

You never know when you'll need the spare....however I knew exactly when I was going to USE that space saver - NEVER. I'd sooner pay to be towed than drive on that piece of shit lol (yes I know this is a silly way to look at it)

No way, that's my plan!

I have a random 17x8 inch rim, it's an advan rim.

I got three advan rims with my car (i assume the other was busted) so youre welcome to take the odd one out for a small fee.

    • 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)
