The crunchin when changing gears is the synchros which require friction to work correctly. While redline shockproof is an excellent gear oil for protecting the actual gears in a gearbox it isnt the best for the synchros. Castrol VMX 80 gear oil is a better option. The are a couple tricks that can be performed to reduce some build up of material on the synchros and reduce glazing. First one is to fill the gear box with a kero oil mix and run the gearbox through the gears with the wheels off the ground so there is no load. Dont do it for too long as it will eventually where the gears. The second trick is with the gearstick in neutral, the engine running and the clutch engage apply pressure to the gearstick towards the problem gear. Dont push it so hard that it drops into gear. These will only provide minor improvments. Nissan gearboxes are renowned for synchro problems and the only true solution is to replace them

Do the R32 GTR door trims and rear interior trims have any marks/damage? If so do you have any pics showing the marks?

Do you have the gearstick shifter surround that the gearstick boot attaches too? If so does it have a textured finish and are all the plastic clips in good condition?

Do you still have the rear bumper, reverse lights & rear quarter window interior trims?

Do you still have the rear bar and reverse lights? What condition are they in? What colour is the bar currently? What sort of money are you looking for these?

would you consider selling just the manifolds from the turbo kit

No, i knew he was going to try something and allowed enough room for me to stop

pm me with the details, im meant to be out drinking but im easily persuaded

The cruise started well but came to quick end, we should reschedule this for another time minus a particular section. And maybe some radios would be useful to keep the group on course.

a bigger intercooler is legal because its not power that regency are concerned with, its emissions. If you car is still running the factory computer it should still be within specifications because it compensates for intake temperature.

Stu, can you send me the details

The requirements for a steering wheel are that it be ADR approved and must be a minimum diameter which i think may be around 350mm, Regency state that the only aftermarket steering wheels that are ADR approved are some Momos. I have only discussed older vehicles with VIS so im not sure what their ruling is when the vehicle came originally fitted with a airbag steering wheel.

Yes, but he cannot do it because it wasnt issued by his division. And with the attention we have created about this defect HHP would notice any removal of this defect.

HHP officers havent admitted that the defect should be lifted, a traffic officer from another area has stated if it was there area and it was brought to their attention as was done here they would have cleared it. HHP officers have banded together and dug their heels in to show a united front and all state the the defect stands, prove your case to VIS

The problem that will be encoutered by approaching your local is MP is that at present this states MPs are pushing for changes to have yearly roadworthies introduced and special inspections required after certain accident damage. This would follow a similiar system as in NSW where roadworthies will be carried out by licensed private workshops. The RAA are currently opposing this and I think you may find that MPs are happy for police to be sending loads of cars through the regency VIS to overload the system to breaking point and force changes. The higher authority at this point is the Police Complaints Authority who are an independent statutory body which answer directly to Parliament. Non of the staff are police officers. All complaints except in special cases (?? they dont detail what these are) are investigated by the Internal Investigation Branch. Any other form of other action at this point could effect the outcome of an investigation. Because this complaint will most likely be considered a less serious incident it should go to a conciliation process where both parties give there side and the complainant indicates what outcome they would like to achieve. A resolving officer will make a desicion normally within 14 days and the complianant can either except this or go forth with a full formal case.

I got some new rubber going on the rears tomorrow so i should be ok to go in the wet now

If its dry i might come along

besides being faded what condition is the rear bar in and does it include the 2 reverse lights

No, both parties are required to report the accident to police within 24hrs. The police will then provided each driver with the details of the other driver after they have investigated it. I know this because about 6 months ago a driver of a ford laser took offence to my driving on anzac highway and decided to run into the back of my GTR and refused to stop afterwards. I rang the police and they informed me to go to the nearest police station and report the accident. A couple days later a police officer rang after visiting the other drivers residents to provide me with his name, address, etc for insurance purposes. The police officer also informed me that the other driver had made a statement about me drag racing on anzac highway. I stated that it couldnt have been much of a drag race if his normal aspirated ford laser caught and ran into the back of my twin turbo 4wd GTR, i think he is full of shit.

You are no longer to required to stop at the scene of an accident unless someone is injured, so if you believe all the occupants are ok you may leave and just report the accident to police within 24hours. This is too protect people from violent road rage attacks.

Hey Paladin, the biggest cause of road death in South Australia is not speeding, its tired & inattentive drivers, drunk drivers comes in around 3rd and speeding motorist comes in around 5th or 6th

Is the gearbox still available, if so do u have any details about who did the gearset upgrade and how many kms ago.

What sort of noise, that WRX has an external waste gate

There were some big puddles in the right hand lane and i dont think it was a good idea running so close together in that lane. I found it was ok to do 180 in either lane out by yourself even with the slightly slick rear tyres i was running. The Supra and 300 boys continued their tricks at the drift spot near JMS on the way back. Im now in need of a gearbox for my car after 1 to many launches
