Hay peeps :wavey:

Well I am off again going to go and help the people in Arche for a few months, wish me luck people, who knows maybe I will be able to afford a real car when I get back.

For those that don't know me checkout Car of the month for Oct last year hehehe, it is now in Coffs Harbor in the hands of a bogan. I am a carpenter in the Army and was told on wed to pack for monday as your off to Sumartara and Arche to help rebuild and clean up "stuff".

Have a safe trip Beau. I'm sure they need all the help they can get to rebuild the homes. As Jason said, be careful not to catch any bad diseases from all those corpses.

I was watching 60 minutes tonight and they reckon in 21st century there will be a "grandad tsunami" which will wipe out 1,000,000 people at Pandong? I think it was, halfway up the coast line from Ache. The plates are moving soo much that some expert from California predicted the last tsunami and has predicted the next withing the next 100 years :S

I'm sure you'll meet the best people in the world and work alongside them to build a new city for a devistated country :D

Congratulations on the apointment.

I wish my work would send me there to do something....

I was touched by the disaster and wish i could do something, but i cant do anything atm.

Hope you feel good about the apointment. You will love it, it will be very rewarding. Wait for a day off and have a cold beer by the beach and you will love it. Cant say i know wat their going through, but as ex-army (now civy) some of my best days were in the armed forces. You will return to Aust and be so full of self respect and have already gained the respect from us here at SAU Qld. Once again good luck with the job ahead and i hope you only a sore thumb as a result of combat with a hammer. LOL

Cheers Col

goodluck mate

every cruise entrant pays 5 or 10 bucks, cruiz to a beach on a sunday, park, have a bbq to make sum more cash, 100s club as well, invite other clubs along? has it ben done yet?

    • 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)
