my drive way sux

its steepish, onto a busy road on a corner, behind a power pole

i often sit there for 5 minutes waiting for a break in traffic

my front bar has no paint on its bottom either

slightly better since i got the coil overs in and raised her up a bit

as u guys have said before who knows what the logic is about reversing into the driveway but i do that all the time and my car doesnt scrap then, if i was to go straight in it scraps, as i cant go in at an angle cause the driveway is just perfect fit for my car dam small driveway

The first time the same day I bought my car i tried to get it up my driveway I cracked the front bar and got the car stuck on my driveway and my dad had to come lift the front of the car while i reversed.

The car was so low that I had to install new springs to enable me to get up the driveway at all.

My previous car which was a 250cu TE Cortina which has compressed and cut springs would smach the extractors everytime on the way in and out the driveway and made that part of the extractor flat underneath. I didnt really car on that car as it a shitter anyway

  • 2 months later...

mine used to be fine, 'till the next door neighbour had a bitch to the council about a bit of a puddle that built up in front of his driveway when it rained (and it wasnt even a lot of water, and wasnt on his grass or anything)

so they came in, tore up the end of the court( my house is at the very bottom of the court) and re layed it to fix his little water issue

in the process of fixing his tiny issue, they managed to destroy ours, and the other next doors driveways, so now they are like \/ that as well....cant wait till i get the skyline...my TX5 is on superlows, and gets in if i go extremely slow, but it has no body kit so yeah

it has cracked the front bar of my cousins VX clubsport, and almost did the same to his brothers VX Club.

not nice

Here's my driveway drama...this is how I get in my single car garage...coming out you have to reverse the other way and it just scrapes slightly...dying to lower the car but pretty much impossible at the moment unless maybe I remove my front lip??? or airbag suspension!! :( Live in a complex so body corp is very anal about foreign objects left outside in the driveway eg: ramps, planks etc... :P

I just moved to a new place.

and i love my driveway!

every car we own gets in and out without any dramas!

first house I have lived in where I can get my cars in and out with out having to go really really slow and sideways, or in reveres!

im loving it :huh:

sorry for the brag. but yeah I love it

hey guys

i know this may be abit off topic but i got an r33 with stock wheels and suspension and was thinking of getting a nismo 400r front bar but im afraid its gonna be too low for everyday driving plus my driveway sux

i was wondering if anyone knew how much clearance i would have from the front bar and the ground

thanks

I scrape near my cat every time i go in and out.

I had to adjust my rear suspension higher just so i could get it down.

I have no idea how I can get it fixed.

I doubt the council will do anything as the path has no problems.

I doubt my land son of rajab will rip up their driveway just so my lowered car doesntg scrape.

    • Hi all. So one of my major issues at the moment is my rear turbo leaking oil on the exhaust (and the general area). I presumed it was the rock hard super old drain hose, which it was not. So now I am in the midst of removing the rear turbo to get access to the banjo bolt that goes into the turbo oil feed. As one of the previous owners accidentally? tore off the OEM oil feed hardline that reaches behind the turbo, they ran braided lines directly to the turbo, presumably PTFE. Now, regardless if the line has rubber or teflon inside, is it just generally a bad idea to do this? I imagine these lines get quite hot being between the engine, turbo core and exhaust manifold. I suppose it's not too far fetched to think the line may even have melted. I'd love to hear your opinions on this as as the replacement OEM hardline piece is 130 per unit. And cutting open the currently mounted line to see inside will mean I just have to get a replacement either way. So far I am hoping maybe the bolt just loosened or (god forbid) they forgot one of the crush washers.
    • If it's a factory 20de manual probably has the 6 bolt flywheel in which case the det clutches won't work as they're 9 bolt.
    • All RB push clutches are interchangeable. AFAIK, the 4cyl ones are not. Different flywheels. The RB small box is not identical to the 4cyl boxes. Just very similar.
    • Hi. I need a new clutch for my gearbox. It is a factory smallbox behind RB20DE NEO. What options do i have? If iam not mistaken the gearbox should be the same as in R32 GTST and Nissan S14/S15? I found some Xtreme Clutch Stage 1 for S14/S14 (i dont know if you know the brand) (UK) OR...is the clutch same as in the bigbox from RB25DET?   Thank you!
