I used Jiff :P on my GTR last night to remove a sticker off the rear bar!

It worked quite well suprisingly. I've had this stupid sticker on there since I imported the car. It was literally randomly placed on the rear bar. Why they stuck it there, I will never know.

Jiff ftw!!

I'm sick of my GTS-T already. :P

I'm not.. 7 going on 8years strong. :P

The R32's are great fun little cars; I've driven r33's just not for me too boaty less racy feeling; R34's yeah felt really nice with that r32 racy/feedback feel.

K @ H wax and grease remover is also great for that kind of thing! highly recomend it.

I was wondering what was good to use on those types of things! I had some of that Turtle bug, small baby and tar removal stuff that you can spray onto your car, but it didn't work

hey boys and girls...

REALLY NEED a r32 MSPEC front bar!!!!

and REO BAR!

I had a good look at my reo and turns out it has been trimmed to fit a cooler, it's only a small section so I didn't notice it before.

There's not much metal missing at all, but if you want something un molestered for regency I'm afraid mine probably won't do. :D

every car feels like a commodore if the setup is wrong....

my 33 has HR tien coilovers, decent tread on 18's and gay strut braces and already has amazing turn in, and yes ive driven all sorts of cars to compare...Very happy the way the thing handles. Flat as and turn in like a mofo. Let the talking happen in the hills.

When i had the corolla id leave the 33 there for a week or two then jump in it and it would remind me why i still got it, felt f*kn amazing in comparison to the corolla haha.

    • With same diff ratio, tyre diameter and road speed, the tailshaft rpm is the same regardless of the gearbag's ratio. Given that very quick drag cars are probably doing similar road speeds to the fastest circuit cars (circa 300 km/h), and there will be many of either category that can't go that fast and so you'd have inummerable matchups between drag and circuit car speeds at smaller numbers, and given that they are probably using rather similar tyre diameters and probably using similar diff ratios, and...where any of those numbers were different they could quite easily be in opposite directions thus cancelling out.... I think you'd find that there'd be more similarity than difference in tailshaft speed between these two use cases, no?
    • they might see those prop shaft speeds for 1 to 2 secs only 
    • A year of slogging through this bearing issue and finally fixed. What a nightmare. The oil pressure increase did not fix the problem. If you would like to read all the details in case you ever run into a similar issue visit my thread on Yellow Bullet. https://www.yellowbullet.com/threads/continuous-rod-bearing-issues.2689569/?post_id=74193031&nested_view=1&sortby=oldest#post-74193031 In the end the rod bearings themselves were the issue. I had switched from ACL (first engine) to King because that was all we could get at the time and I thought nothing of it. Put the ACL's back in after a year of taking the pan off multiple times to change many things. Issue resolved. Can't believe it was just the bearings themselves all along. It has now been about two years since I drove the car on the street or had it at the track. At some point I had installed all solid and spherical bushings in the rear but had never aligned it since it just went on and off the dyno. Alignment was the first thing to do. (Old photo but same concept) Then I took the transmission out and went through it. This was my first gearset install and I've done about 15 since this one and learned a lot and wanted to apply some of these tweaks to mine. The aftermarket shift forks take very well to some modification and I wanted to make that change. Shifts are now super smooth and no having to find the gear. I also recut the 5th and reverse shift sleeves - always wanted to try this and see how well it works. It works very well! No grinds or having to do a second attempt going into reverse and 5th is perfect. Before During After Going back in In rummaging through my spare trans parts box I found the only parts I've ever broke on a stock trans; the 3-4 shift fork - twice!  
    • It also depends on gearbox ratio. Those drag cars running 7s passes aren't doing it on an overdrive gear ratio (probably). 1:1 is "fine", the critical RPM for a 50' single driveshaft in chromemoly is 6900rpm.... ....but when you shift into 5th and use 0:73 or 0:8 it all changes. Do you know their rear diff ratio? etc. That's the stuff that matters with regards to it. Whether it actually matters given your use application is also relevent. You may never get into those scenarios, like most ruined GTR's from Western Sydney don't :p
    • but for how long? would it handle a few laps around SMSP in anger?
