Ok - I find it all interesting but it looks like he is close to having what he wants a responsive non GTR acting motor aka V8 type response.

let the poor girl free let her breathe and rev like god intended. It is a thing of beauty.

OR I HAVE AN IDEA - There is a Super Charged RB32 here in nz somewhere. Give that a go.

haha, Pete is happy, because Pete is getting close to what PETE wants :yes::wub:

Hold on , SUPER CHARGED I want one of those :banana:

RB32DERT. That should hopefully keep pete happy.

I understand what you blokes are saying and I love the sound of and feel of my car when it was high in the rev range BUT to use it as a DD and get to hear it, you would be in 1st gear all day or in jail :)

I will have lots of revs to play with that I can use on a daily basis .

This thread has gotten so large people will think it's a legit thread for people to post asking for predictions.

Guys my -7's is going on a flex tune soon.

How much power will it make?

Best daily is one that doesn't come on boost till 4k. Putter around all day under boost, no attention, no headaches

You can putter around if you do not extend the right foot as long as it is not too noisy and when you want to use the response push it when it is appropriate :)

Car will go in next week sometime :cheers:

Should read

:D:D:D

You have to excuse me if I do not get the humor ,I am an old man and of course you need to REV it to get it going, but mine , even now, not so much ?

I remember this car as a 26 when I needed to get the passengers out to help push it for a step hill start, it was so funny watching them scurrying to try to get back in :)

What ever happened to throttle control? Don't want to come on song, don't put your foot down. It isn't binary made up of 0's and 1's, throttle wide open or shut, mashed into the carpet or off it.

I just don't understand the logic of why you want all that torque and power down low.

Maybe its because I drove a car with a high stall for so long and loved the fact that for everyday duties it was lazy and much nicer and easier to drive compare to before the converter went in. Similar to changing from stock to -5s which made the car nicer to drive daily.

I suppose I don't like setups that are surgy and responsive that makes for a nervous and less livable drive for daily duties, for me anyway.

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
