are you being serrious have you ever been in a rwd with 350rwkw? its alot of fun and none of the fun is happining in a straight line.

No, I'm just regurgitating what someone else said. I've never driven a 350rwkw car. :P

Launching is just so much fun, but whatever you do, dont launch with steering angle applied. Only launch dead straight.

Indeed, I only did AWD donuts twice (didnt require antilag to get it going, just rolled into them and slipped the clutch in 1st). Tyres completely stuffed from a total of about 15 seconds of spinning. Ripped chunks off the outside edge of the falkens it was wearing.

I'd imagine an antilag launch and full lock would stuff the cv's pretty rapidly. They probably just pop instantly.

Be more worried for your front diff :down:

If anyone wants to try it out let me know, i have a spare front diff here for sale!

with a mech diff, 5/7 coils, pineapples, postive camber and 311 rwkw my car stays straight and barely loses any traction on 235 federal 595 ss's and it stays in a straight line

(obviously not in 1st)

As my car is pretty standard atm the launch is incredible, When it does have 300-350awkw it will be an insane experience.

A guy around townsville had a bayside blue 32 GTR with the works. Trust 2.7l stroker twin T518Z turbos, alcons and cage. A few years back he took it out and launched it.... from 10,000rpm lol. it was the most incredible sight i have ever freekin seen in my life

Yeh, the launches are awsome. Years ago the yellow R32GTR from Autostyle ran at EC, it was running 10s all that time ago and the sound of that thing launching. I think it ran a T78, maybe T88. Still one of my favourite cars. The only other thing that has matched it for ferocity was a BD4s built EVO4 that was running an external gate 3037 setup. It was waaaay cool on the limiter launch :ninja:

Hmm yea i remember seeing that thing for the first time in the very first autosalon street car of the year and it was very impressive, it won the comp of course lol

I think one of the most memorable launches i have seen is that purple 2.7l T51R SPL equipped Autostyle R32 GTR with the 19 inch gold Blitz Technospeeds, seeing that thing using Launch Control and Antilag was very impressive to watch

That black one now has the TUFGTR plates. Such an awesome car! Owned by a deadset legend aswel

The yellow one (too fast), still has the winning sticker on the rear window, looks awesome!

Yeh i loved that yellow R32, he wanted 80k or something crazy when i saw it for sale, If it was 30k i think i would actually buy it :(

Oh and Weapon, nice car...but can you make your sig pic smaller? :(

Thats like asking for a penis reduction Roy. :thumbsup::P

    • I'm hoping I just don't have to do an engine rebuild NOW. Doesn't mean I won't do it at some point. I think a plus point is that the car presumably ran on or close to stock power nearly all it's life so far. Only the Owner I bought it from actually increased power with a standalone ECU and blew the OEM turbos. And after it got thee 2860s it wasn't driven an awful lot either.   That is what I meant. With the twins coming on so late (4500-5000rpm) I hope the rods won't want to exit the block prematurely. And it still being a 26 means the torque curve isn't gonna hike up all that much.   It didn't blow up on the dyno when they tuned it to 500ish crank. So I suppose it'll be okay for now. They did put a Tomei head gasket on first though which did not seal at all, and they redid it with a Cometic one. Which I hope won't be my water leak.   Mainly anything oil. So far all it has is the N1 pump, oil restrictor and a filter relocation kit with a cooler.
    • 15000? ish? Something like that anyway. It wasn;t so much a wear as a tear that then spread. Might have lasted a lot longer if not bothered by just one incident, whatever it was. I took a punt. They are really comfortable and do a good job of holding. My daughter HATED it when I first put them in, and probably still does now. She has sensory issues and hates the way they are all up your business. I'm 197cm and 95kg. Not fat or particularly wide, and the XL size seat is the rigth fit. If I was any fatter it would start to get too snug. Any skinnier and you'd possibly want the smaller width.
    • Mrs rs focus came factory with recaro cs  sportsters in it and they a pain in the ass to get in and out of with the really high bolsters, once you were in them they were one of the most comfortable seats I have ever sat in
    • The NA 2.5 has very little torque. You won't feel much. Those trannies are also a million years old now and it could well be f**ked. First generation electronically controlled autos will often refuse to kick down, ete, etc, depending on what's wrong with them.
    • Yes, but no but yes but no. Those "it's fine up to 500HP" rules and everything else like it were all determined back when the cars were 10 years old. As they are now 30 years old.....what do you reckon the chances of something shitting the bed are? I'd say they are much higher now than they used to be. You might be lucky. You might be unlucky. Spin the wheel and find out. Yeah, nah. It's actually exactly the opposite. Making boost early and having heaps of torque able to be generated right in the middle of the rev range will do more to damage an engine than having to rev it high to make the power. Think about the load on the conrods, bearings, etc, to make 400HP at 4000 rpm, vs 400 HP at 6500 rpm. So someone has already "let the Nissan out" which is how we describe the increased chance of a fiddled with engine to have had something done wrongly. Many more engines that have been opened die than stock ones do - even if you into consideration how they are treated wrt power levels and the like. Again, not saying that yours will definitely have been put back together by a moron. But the possibility does exist. It's still a lottery. Spin the wheel. What weakspots?
