I have had the 3.0 in my 34 making 400kw+ for near a year now with two trips to the drags and a trackday at EC with no issues, but I am very mechanically sympathetic

This is a debate I had with Paully for ages when he was going to go the PPG, by the time you pay for the PPG set and have it fitted and you really need to have the Billet mid plate, you are better off saving a bit more and getting the sequential, unless there is a class restriction that requires a H pattern in which case the PPG box is the one to have

The problem with the aftermarket gearsets is they still go into a casing that wasn't designed to take that much power and flexes and due to size can't run bigger diameter gears, where the OS88 has 88mm centers and is purpose built to take upto 1500hp plus you get much faster gear changes, especially with shift cut setup :D

As for legalities, There is some crap about the shifter knob has to show the shift pattern I'm sure they could get you on of they wanted to.

Piggaz that's a fair wait for the box how does it work as in how much of a deposit you have to put down to get the ball rolling for one? If you don't mind me asking how much did one cost you?

The whole lot was the deposit, have to pay up front then wait 4 months or more for it to get here :(

It's ok for me my car is still running, but poor Paully has to sit and wait :(

Hopefully not to much longer now mate, if Paully wants to post the price he can

    • 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)
