well lockers have no give, the main thing with a diff is when you corner one wheel spins faster than the other so the diff has to allow for this, lovckers and really tight lsd's don't and you'll get a bit of wheel skipping, which with a locker is more pronounced the skipping is basically the wheel trying to match the speed but fasiling, twisting the axle, and then the axle saying no more twist and it skips to untwist a bit..

and lsd doesn'ty cause the axle to twist, well as much anyway, so there nicer on driveline bits..

lockers are tops for direct hookup tho, which is why you'll find drags cars run spools, which is basically a locker, and a lot of RWD racing cars run them..

paulie not yet *touch wood* if i drove the car every day id say i would have by now, rex acxles arn't very big..

luckily every car ive driven witha locker is mainly a track toy so it doesn't see the normal sort of loads a daily car would, lots of car parks would bust axles fairly regurally id guess.

Aidwin - yeah they are really cool guys become friends with them over PAS .... they want me to come down to Willeton to visit when ive got my car back :D

haha i was tired .... it was funny cos this morning paul's muttering woke me up but i thought i was home and it was my mum saying something to me so i go "yeah right whatever" then open my eyes and took a while to figure out where i was

what tha? NO but she'll normally open my bedroom door in the morning and say something like "im going to work see you tonight" orrr "can you remember to put the bins out" or something like that. Thats what i tohught it was!

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
