shes pretty much done on the visuals.. just some ganador mirrors and some tidying up to go, maybe a gtr bonnet and grille. i was going for a plain and simple old school drift look.. i think ive achieved that.

so if y'all see me round newy, shoot me a wave, i dont bite

cheers

Looks friggin tuff as!

Raised bonnet FTW! Hows the temps in the engine bay? The oil temps should be slightly lower too...

See if you can get some rear pods for the rear bar too.

engine temps arent a drama anymore.. dont have oil temp gauge so dont know. just did it as a precaution.. its using a 76* thermostat, new radiator, new hoses, and redline water wetter.. just using a/c thermofan as the engine one shat itself, had some falcon thermos but were too heavy on the battery and didnt really change the temps. so they went. will probs just get a 17" thermo as engine fans are expensive as.

cheers for the comments. id like more low... but the exhaust is 60mm off the ground as is.. im gonna see if i can get it lifted up, but doubt it.. it just scrubs over big bumps, but no dramas otherwise. tyres are 215/30 and 235/35.

i dunno about the rear pods... i like it how it is.. you can see the muffler from the side.

will take some "proper" photos when this friggin rain clears.

cheers

no oil temp... shes just a lowly gtst.. got oil pressure.. which is lower everyday because she needs a rebuild.. haha, but no temp.

the rims are 17" Panasport G7's, fronts are 8.5" or 9" and rears are 9.5" or 10" offset is somewhere in the +20's i think.. they didnt have any stickers or marks on them and the rear was a rough measurement with the old 255 tyre on.. they came nowhere near fitting with 255s so dropped back to 235s and it just squeezes under the rear, ill flare them anyway though, its more of an estimation then a measurement.. either way, they sit exactly how i wanted them to and im stoked about it..

the fronts scrub the inner guards when turning left, so ill have to check that out.. bash something with a hammer. has stock suspension arms so no dialling of camber etc yet.

cheers

      R34 Diff oil

      Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in

      Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.

      R34 Diff oil

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
