Double? Oh dear.... you're going to have one tall kid it sounds like.... pretty useful for reaching stuff off the top shelf at the local supermarket.. better stock the crib up with a basketball and some size 21 shoes

lol her growing slowed down, thankfully. i'm hoping she's tiny so i'm not having a mammoth haha.

well i just figured out her head is 2/5ths engaged and i had no idea she was even engaged

every1 tells you "you'll know, you'll feel her engage", well i didn't grr.

so now i have some serious walking to do to get her down further.

Boof- hope things happen naturally if not then i hope the induction goes well. :banana:

4+ years ago my other half had scans down at Flinders Private. Was told to bring in a VHS tape recorded the scans.

Brought them home and played it over and over until I spotted its sex. :banana:

ahh was told after 6hrs there going to get me to go for a walk, then there going to break my waters and put a drip in to get the

contractions going. so i'll be having her either 2moro night or sometime Wednesday.

feels so weird, i knew it was going to happen but now that it's actually happening it's different.

Carolyn was induced with Tyler - started at 9am and didn't finish delivering until 9pm - was a long day, but worth it :woot:

      R32GTR R200 reverting from Nismo centre to stock

      By djr81 · Posted

      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

      Factory LSD is supposedly a 2 way with a very conservative cam. If you've already tried adding friction modifier to the diff oil and it still locks up too much for your liking you might want to adjust the ramp rate on the cam to be more like OEM instead of reducing initial torque even further. People claim the 8 kgf-m disc kit for the OEM LSD is still very streetable but I've never been able to compare everything side by side on my own.

      Oh man, at least it sounds they've accepted they stuffed up and not put it back on you...could see some confusion if they asked if it had a hardtop or not, and you've answered truthfully but maybe not answering their real question which is what roof did it have from the factory! Glad your keeping it N/A 2.5

      Nah, I much prefer colour matched Talking about colour matching stuff, the new/used boot lid turned up, all painted up perfectly......aaaannnndddd, it's for a power retractable hard top, not a soft top.....LOL They are now sending a boot to fit a soft top.....,  whilst frustrating, life is like that sometimes, sometimes you just need to dodge, duck, dip, dive and, ummm, dodge.
