Don't you hate that! Everytime ya think the cars fixed something else brakes. Trust me, the Corolla wrecked the starter motor. While at the sparkies they inform me the alternator is also had it. Quoted $360 to fix it so I said forget it I will pick it up. Dad ended up getting someone to fix it for me WAAAYYY cheaper. The battery was also stuffed, the carby was so had it that it wouldn't idle (now it has fuel injection) and the brake lights occasionally get stuck on so you have to jump start it next time you drive it. Had a lot of fun with it in the 6 months I have owned it hay!

I have to pay it off or something first. Techinally I do own it (in my name) but Mum and Dad paid for it so to do the right thing, I have still got it, but they wonder why I wanna drive the VN more?:crazy: I am saving for a new R31 at this point though.

I am part time Niz, downfall, I earn part time wages.

Heyas All... Good morning!

Well today is my last day here at work so I might not be on the forums for a bit, maybe 2 weeks or so till I get a nice internet connection.... If anybody needs anything important please gimme a call on the mobile or call me at Osbourne Park Zest Health Club :-)

Take care and hopefully will be chatting with you guys really soon :-)

I owe Mum like $2500 for my car and have paid of, ohh, let me see, about $60! I think I might save up instead of pay that off, once I have saved up enough then I will buy a new one and give them the Rolla back. More enthusiastic that way. I am thinking of buying a really neat un'licenced R31 (if I can find one) and do it up and licence it myself. Might work out cheaper that way.

    • Have you flushed the initial fluid yet? It should look like a rainbow unicorn shat glitter into it. 2nd or 3rd fluid change is when you party.
    • all brand new unit from Tomei, fluid, bearings, etc. Tomei said they call it a 1.5 lsd because its 100 percent lock up under acceleration and 50 percent under deacceleration.  as I mentioned I used their fluid, install and their break-in procedure, (alot of figure 8's) but even when driving straight, or even slowly backing out of garage for first time, (at 2 mph) then driving to and from figure 8 parking lot, each tire in the rear would sporadically grab, skip, bounce, shutter and skip, shutter back a force I could feel causing clutch to slip then grab, at any speed. shaking entire car. I removed unit, since I put stock back in and all is fine, via process of elimination, its something with the lsd unit itself. I wasn't going to beat up the entire car more or change anything else for no reason as I had a feeling something in the lsd itself was wrong as everything was fine before this alone was installed and I rechecked over everything else after first time backing out I suspected an issue. I'll probably sadly already need new tires now just from trying to drive it 5 miles and performing the figure 8 break in. but if someone has any ideas I'm all ears 
    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
