Try punting a 450kw street GTR around a track and let me know how that works out for you, I have that much power and have tried it, not a fun experience :/

did.

Was fine until spun bearings.

I was thinking to put 34 diffs into my 26/30 32 GTR to give the thing more legs and use the torque better. Just seem to row gears constantly on full noise.

I was thinking similar.

my thought is the 34 short ratio gears, which sit between the 32 and 34 ratios.

I believe around the 3.8:1 mark.

I saw Mick's post before and he dropped it down to 380kw to track it, I think that was right Mick ?

Understand , I know nothing, just thinking aloud :)

With say something like mine as a 3.2 , no huge Turbo, but with a more linear acceleration.

Do not understand why, with drive line modified, worked suspension, maybe a Quaife front diff or similar, modified trannie and a 2-way rear ,with good rubber, your right foot and gears to change why you could not use 450KW on a track ??

wish I could! Wish I could! WIsh I could! WISh I could! WISH I COULD!

Maybe today or tomorrow, not a good thing to rush :)

Geez, you're patient man.

If it were me, I'd chime in with a chainsaw to speed things up!

Patient, haha, NOT at all Grant, if it is much longer I will explode .

But there is nothing I can do about it, I just hope the job gets me what I am after and it sounds like it will be, even all of the little things are being looked after.

Got the bill yet

Has jez charged the 10 bux a silly question surcharge?

Should still only cost 30% of crd

If I got charged $10 for the silly question surcharge I would have to get a job to pay the bill :woot:

Thats the trouble when you are learning anything, silly questions, but my mate always said, there are only stupid answers and never be afraid to ask questions :yes:

all depends on how the turbos come into boost.

mocks would be very agrees ive for best response.

I had a big lazy single, so traction wasn't an issue for me.

But, going back to low mount twins, so will be interesting to see what happens.

But if you have the drive line mods to put down the power on the road, what about your right foot controlling what is going on with the power , use it where you can and back off when you have to ?

Trouble is I have not raced or pushed my car to the edge around a track or even on the road , so I can only have a guess and hope to get the answers so I can learn something and understand how it works a little better.

There are alot of different factors ie type of power, how hard you push the car, driveline, brakes, tyres etc

A street GTR would be a stock car with normal street rubber, unmodified driveline and laggy topend power that hits hard later in the revrange, which is ok if you wait till it is lined up on the straights before giving to the beans

haha, then mine is somewhere inbetween, just need to do the suspension (but I wont)

He did a run on the car this morning and it was 390kw on 21psi , full boost at 3950 rpm on 98 pump, still working on it , looking promising

    • 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)
