Sau A.c.t. - What Did You Do To Your Car Today?

[Got a Pulsar]

More direct feel.

[Sinista32]

Quick shift -

Shifting that is lightning fast, but also secure. By changing the structure and materials of the installation point, and by a change in the fulcrum position (lever ratio), a dramatically more solid feeling shift change was achieved, with a 25% shorter stroke and much faster shifting.

Short shift -

The Nismo Solid Shifter has been developed to provide a 7.5mm lower shift knob height and increase the hardness of the rubber shift lever. This provides 10% shorter shift distance and less deflection for a more solid confident shift.

[azathoth]

Yep, that one.

Also chews the fark out of syncros

[DJBarnstar]

Ignition dwell?

Turns out that the ViPec has shat itself. Oh the humanity.

The one i got apparently doesn't. The angle of the shifter is the exactly the same when i compared them. It it just slightly shorter and is solid.
I did lots of reading up on the nismo one to make sure it wouldn't be detrimental to the synchronicity of my gearboxes internal components.
It was the reason I got it over one of the aftermarket short shifter kits. It also came with a new shifter bushing already on it which i liked because i hate changing those things.

How you can justify 1500 on seat covers I'll never know haha

they are oh so much more!

Honeslty i don't care about cost on the GTR. I want to get it to the best it can be. So i chip away bit by bit. After all it's only money.

[Anfanee]

Also that isn't including the bran new interior bits i plan to buy at like $140-$200 each. Center console surround has screw holes in it from previous owner mounting a gauge there. $170 for new one without the holes. =\

[RosieR34]

Finally a website that you can search via Car. Sick of Justjap listing Evos,WRX's and Silvia parts !

[Anfanee]

Yep. Nengun have slower sending times and more in freight. But a good site none the less.

I don't know why Justjap make it so difficult.

Also check:

RhdJapan.com for new OEM products.

[B-rice]

Almost all my parts are from RHDjapan Nengun never works for me. and its not going to be a knockoff

[azathoth]

I just bought new lmgt4 centre caps and replacement nismo stickers for them from RHD japan.
Awesome site to navigate. Way too much stuff I want on there though.

Also got new hoses for all my IC pipes, fitted up the turn flow, ready to start it tomorrow and move it into my old mans garage when he goes away for the weekend on a club run so i'll change my turbo.

Those seat covers are shmick......might buy some some day...some day

[DJBarnstar]

So, I got the bad news today that my ViPec needs to be sent to WA to be repaired and could take 4 plus weeks.

This puts me in a sticky situation as I need a car for work... and tmw.

Sooo, I jumped on the interwebs and sourced a shittah to run around in. Took about 2.5mins to

find this beauty... a 1996 Beep Beep Barina in Goulburn for..... $600 with 5 weeks rego.

Was totaly winning and drove home (the guy who owned it works in Canberra so gave me a lift from QBN to Goulburn)

Until..... I hit a goddam Kangaroo.

Oh the humanity.. Beep Beep Booooop.

[Sinista32]

[Got a Pulsar]

At least you didn't hit that Giant Sheep!
