i had some problems lastnite bieng a dumbass and i popped a driveshaft, 32 gtr, drivers front, its come apart from the diff side...

now i bought 1 this morning, put it in, took for a good drive , no dramas, then going for another drive, goin around corner and gassed it abit in first, same same, again came apart diff side,

then put new one again, then also, gassed it in second, going in a atraight line...... and it popped aswell...

wtf??

the only thing i havent checked is the engine mounts, they feel good in the car, but if they were rooted, would this cause the motor to twist and lift causing the cv to spread open and come apart???????

ive ordered new nismo engine and box mounts, will this fix it...

I have a gts-4 r32 running rear wheel drive.. and after a little wear on the rear tires 4wd system kicked in and snapped the front right innner CV so i replaced it and the power steering line that it fractured and two/three weeks later while the 4wd system was deactivated; went over a big bump in my drive way and poped out the front right inner CV again... do u have any ideas on what could be causing it?

p.s my car is lowered with JIC coilovers but it isn't that low

      Low oil pressure after WOT

      By pogman · Posted

      I also understand psi but apparently most things make more sense in kpa oil pressure being one of a few exceptions so im trying to learn ahahahah, I have no idea of the relief spring pressure tbh I thought 110 which is the absolute peak it hits was about right, I was thinking of removing the relief and making sure it is in good condition, I would just replace it but couldn't find a replacement for an n1 pump too easily but I could just be blind.

      It certainly does make sense that there is just no oil to pick up, but I can go 3 or 4 gears of WOT and have no oil pressure issues too (I have no logs of this unfortunately) and I have a fair amount of oiling mods to try and help only thing I'm missing is a rear head drain which is potentially the most helpful.

      speaking of the relief spring and noting this is one of those stupid times where I understand imperial (psi) but the graph is in metric (kpa), it looks like the oil pressure is a little low at full noise too, isn't the relief spring 120psi/830kpa?

      Is r33 gtr steering wheel the same as the gtst?

      No. All these dirty old Datsuns are shitboxes. Including the GTR.

      Yeah well I was thinking...there is nothing that happens when you get off the throttle that should cause low oil pressure, its not like clearances suddenly change or and the relief spring would close and in any case the sensor is on the feed side....so more likely there was no oil available to pick up which means all the basic oil control stuff to: 1. keep oil out of the head (restrictors) 2. get it back out of the head when it gets there (external breathers/oil return, drilling out the block and head oil returns) 3. have more oil in the sump to pick up - larger capacity sump 4. have more oil near the pick up - baffles
