a locked diff is usually used to transfer equal power to each wheel. instead of a difference of power between both tyres which is what can sometimes happen, esspecially under heavy load.

i woulda been happy without it tho, but it comes with the car so i have no probs with that.

once i get the car ill put up some pics ya'll

should be middle of next week hopefully

depending on the paperwork.

im goin out next week and gettin a blitz air filter kit and an exhaust. i didnt get paid as much as i throught i would so the exhaust may be a lil while off yet which sux

but we'll see how i go i waitin on my tax check to come in before i buy the exhaust

anyway pics soon guys

hey all

here is a pic of my newie, picked it up 2day that is the sale pic, but i will take some once i give it a wash tomorrow and fix up all the wires i didnt hide tonight.

i am stoked

it was a bit scary when becuse it has a locked diff it wurrs in 3rd and 4th at low revs but i talked to a machanic and he says because its tryin to push both wheels, the gears are stugglin at lower revs. so that easyed my mind a bit. still gunna get it checked tho

anyway stock as a rock except for a stezza and pod atm, exhaust to come and then wheels probably

im not into uppin the boost or anything like that atm maybe a cooler later down the track but im sweet with my ride atm i love it

gets alot of attention tho good and bad

Nice pick up mate. Looks quite nice, from the looks of it ... a series 1 R34 98 model? stockie gtt wing looks pretty good too, wish mine had come with that instead of the altia/nismo one. The little dent will come out nicely in the hands of a panelbeater.

    • Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know about an app I use to track the modifications, repairs, servicing etc I do to my R33 GTR. You might like to use it as well. I'm biased because my son just wrote and released it! But I think you might find it useful to... https://trackmymods.com  
    • Hey everyone, been on here for a while, but never introduced myself before. 1st import was a R32 GTS Type M, then R33 GTS, now R33 GTR - each one sold to help pay for the next one. Over the years my son has seen me modify and do changes to my imports and was one of the reasons for him to build an app for car enthusiasts like us. (He can only afford a 2007 Honda at the moment, but he'll get there!) Anyway, bit of a proud Dad moment as he's released an app that I use and you all might like to as well. https://trackmymods.com  
    • It will sound tragic and you wished you didn't have 1x exhaust per turbo. There's a reason why most S55 owners change to a single mid pipe.
    • Echo the comments about the well preserved condition it's in. It has the aero bumper too for extra points. Nice car, and please keep it like that! 🙂
    • 1. There are no real performance benefits. It sounds different, and as the pipes are not as large diameter you can claw back some undercar clearance or run lower (if that's your thing). 2. Twin pipes, offering exactly the same cross sectional area as a single pipe** will have higher pressure drop - so will not flow as well. That's because there is more surface area of wall per cross sectional pipe area, hence more frictional losses. ** But of course, it is almost impossible to get 2 pipes that are exactly the same XS area as a given typical single pipe. eg, 2x2" is not the same as 1x 3", although it is close. If the 2x pipes add up to less XS area than the single - it will just be flat out worse. If the 2x pipes add up to a bit more than the single, then it might come out as a wash. If the 2x pipes are substantially more XS area than the single, then it will probably flow a little better. 3. No. Why would there be? What have cats got to do with boost creep?*** ***But for f**ks' sake, please run a cat. 4. If you want.
