sweet thx alot shaolin

anyone know this mad website? subscription based, online version of a car mag. lots of tech article and mod stuff, they show u like the first page or so and to read the rest u gotta pay. ive seen it a few times and i thought i bookmarked it but i cant find it anywhere now. ive spen the last 2 hours trying to find it in the thread but SAU is always so slow and i get a lot of 'cannot find server' any help appreciated

theres this mad website, its a car mag, u can subscribe on the net for their net version, has heaps of mad article on car mods and tech stuff ive seen it refered to a few times and i thought i bookmarked it but now i cant find it anywhere. anyone have any idea what im going on about?

ive seen service manuals available for download in pdf format, just wondering if its legal? are service manuals free to copy and distribute? ive only seen em for older cars (r32 gtr), so is it some sort of timeframe? (ie. once the model is 15 yrs old, its ok to freely distribute the service manual etc.) i think ive seen an r34 gtr manual going for like $300 on ebay

anyone know how many r34 gtr's were produced in total? including the gtr, gtr vspec, vspec 2 and nur i know there were 1000 nur specs made, what about the others? or total r34's? if u guys know the numbers for the r33 and r32 that would be great also im doing a research paper and this imformation would help heaps. or if u can point me in the right direction would help heaps too thanks in advance Boris

great thanks HEAPS guys ...and/or ladies

Great answer. although its raised another question for me. i mentioned that attessa only maxes at 50% to the front, but i noticed on the gtr guages that the reading maxes out at 50 KGM (which is 500nm). i had always thought the reading is just a percentage, but since seeing that i wasnt so sure (although it makes sense because there would be a max load the front wheels/drivetrain could take, and if it was 50%, and u had modified the car to produce over 1200 newtons of torque, more than 600 newtons could go to the front) which might cause problems i only used 1000hp as an example. 1000hp is common in japanese drag circles from what ive seen but yeah u are completely right 600-800 hp would be much more suited to track i did see however on top gear, that clarkson guy runnning the 1000hp jun r33 around a circuit. while he said that it was bloody scary when it came on boost (and at a corner!) it went around fine (although i dont know if they ran full boost) and it was for sale at 150k pounds... 1000hp.... :flower: :jump: :burnout:

great thanks i was hoping someone might have weighed it after ripping one out. its been done quite often enough ripping the engine out i mean, to work on it happen to know how heavy the transmission is? just a general idea. around 150kgs? 100?

how heavy is the gtr rb26dett engine (r32,33,34 all ok, prolly VERY similar weights) and the getrag6 tranny? thanks in advance boris

thanks sydneykid ill take ur advice into accound for next time. do u find the huge shift in weight to the front affects ur times or overall diveablilty of the car? (im thinking more circuit oriented then drag, where chassis balance is a lot more of an issue) apart from trying to move things to the back, anything else u do? my guess was that alot more torque would be transfered to the front wheels. (in the gtr). but i notice on the metre it only transfers uo tp 50kgm, which is only 500nm. hehe only... would this be a problem for serious cars with over 1000bhp 1200 nm torque trying to get more power to the front wheels for grip? in essence, would the car turn into an almost fwd, when the vast majority of torque is sent to the front?

even if u can afford a nur, it would be very hard/time comsuming to find one of the colour u want either way i reckon a nur in any colour would look great parked in my driveway...

a whole bunch of washers wouldnt add that much would it? maybe go for some aluminium spacers or something if u think weight would be an issue

who cares about the colour! u can always respray to the colour of ur choice im thinking black/purple pearl melting into yellow pearl... i would also kill for a nur. well maybe not KILL per se. but maim...
