I originally posted the "R34GTT vs XR6T" thread a while ago found here when test driving tipronic, turbo sixes around the 30k mark.

To cut a long story short, I had made my choice and I found the R34GTT to be the superior overall package. Now my time has finally come to take delivery of my baby. All things going well ( ie. the world not ending in some sort of freak cataclysmic-disaster) I will have the car in my hands tomorrow!

It now looks like the 3 months of waiting has finally come to an end and the four cyclinder, naturally aspirated, XX year old, lancer (our make do car) will be returning to the mother in-law. Only problem now.... I need to be able to get to sleep tonight!!!! :wassup:

Anyone have any suggestions for how to get through the final wait? (actually I think I'll be restless for the next couple of nights ;) )

i remember when i got my 33.....it was unreal. i didnt get any sleep, was up all night looking at the photos of it. everything was going sweet on pick up day....except old bud left NOOOOOOOOO fuel in it....he then told me it pings a little on optimax, but not on synergy or ultimate, on the weekend of the big NSW premium fuel shortage....had to drive like a granny for 20kms through sydney stopping at each servo to see if they had premium, ended up putting in 3 bottles of octane boost and topping up with normal unleaded until we got to the twin caltexs....really put a dampner on the day. so basically i had to drive like a granny for nearly 2 hours after picking it up. after that though....well....yeh, tyres didnt last long.

congrats bro, you made the right choice. you wont regret it.

cheers

      I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.

      Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!

      Just to get this straight if you turn the splined shaft to the outside, it turns freely but the chain does not move? What happens when you move the chain, does the splined shaft turn? Surely the shaft is snapped, or the chain is seized and it took the teeth off whatever great is behind the steel bracket
