yeh not many S.1's around.. :rolleyes:

For some reason to do with import regs almost all Australian imports are of turboed Stageas whereas in NZ the big majority are n/a like the Rips car was when he bought it.

Epic build. I can't believe this is all done with stock diffs, driveshaft and suspension. Insane!

I'm not at all surprised that this beast is as stable as it is... that was one of the first things I came to appreciate with these cars after putting the foot into my 260RS the stability under speed and in corners is quite a surprise and a pleasure to drive.

And the series 1 ain't nothing to frown at... I restored mine with new silver trim and grey lenses on the front from Dolphin (original 260RS) part and they look mean as hell from the front. Plus it's all colour coded, I get heaps of looks and positive comments from randoms on the street.

      Have you flushed the initial fluid yet? It should look like a rainbow unicorn shat glitter into it. 2nd or 3rd fluid change is when you party.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      all brand new unit from Tomei, fluid, bearings, etc. Tomei said they call it a 1.5 lsd because its 100 percent lock up under acceleration and 50 percent under deacceleration.  as I mentioned I used their fluid, install and their break-in procedure, (alot of figure 8's) but even when driving straight, or even slowly backing out of garage for first time, (at 2 mph) then driving to and from figure 8 parking lot, each tire in the rear would sporadically grab, skip, bounce, shutter and skip, shutter back a force I could feel causing clutch to slip then grab, at any speed. shaking entire car. I removed unit, since I put stock back in and all is fine, via process of elimination, its something with the lsd unit itself. I wasn't going to beat up the entire car more or change anything else for no reason as I had a feeling something in the lsd itself was wrong as everything was fine before this alone was installed and I rechecked over everything else after first time backing out I suspected an issue. I'll probably sadly already need new tires now just from trying to drive it 5 miles and performing the figure 8 break in. but if someone has any ideas I'm all ears
