My skylines my daily driver and i wouldn't have it any other way. (at the moment anyway). Why have the car as u said if u cant enjoy it everyday

I cant use myn everyday because i got the bug and couldnt stop spending on it and now with all the money it ows me im not parking it a carpark lol plus i get dirty as hell at work and im always picking up cheap car parts

i brought a new car today.... another skyline(laughs) well its actually one of those datsun skylines with the good old nissan engine. she goes hard as. i got it for $120 bucks of a mate and it has 2 months rego and for a old car the power windoes still work(on floor by this time...). took it out today to a sucluded place and done some tyre friers and a few drifts(yes it actually does them). ill upload some pics if anyone wants a geez at her.

mate, when i drove my skyline day in day out (have done for 7 years, 31 included), it tends to just feel like another car, you get used to it and how it handles, drives etc....becomes a bit repetitive and the novelty wears off, however now i got a corolla (which doesn't handle all that bad) day in day out, its cheap, reliable and i dont put km's on my 33 and you get used to the power, but the most important thing is, the one or two days out of the week i do drive the skyline, I appreciate it soooooooo much more. Every time i get in it i can justify all the money ive spent on it, makes me realise why i still have it! thats the best way i can put it.

:blink: howdy bud

i put 50 bux in the corolla a week, probably 40 bux in the skyline and yea rego for 2 cars is around 300 for 3 months but i dont have any kids, no mortgage and im on a good dollar so at this point in my life its what i do... :)

When I'm just driving to work, I might take the silver Stagea or my MV Agusta Brutale. When I'm taking the GF out or going for a cruise, I might take the black Stagea or the Suzuki TLR1000. When I'm cruising with the biker boys, I'll take the MV Agusta and the GF takes the Aprilia. Don't even ask what I pay in rego/insurance :woot:

    • But it's much better to use a freedom unit that has four different possible meanings...
    • I would try messing with friction modifier to see if it smooths it out.  Just keep adding more until it stops chattering or grabbing quite so much. If you haven't changed the gear oil in a long time you may as well start there too in case that has anything to do with it. You might want to also verify the initial torque is set to the lowest setting too. Requires popping out one of the CV axles first but that's not too bad. Once you're sure the preload is set to the lowest you can try adding an ounce at a time of friction modifier until it feels right to you.
    • It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.  
    • Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
