Thats typical Japanese bidding..drives me insane. Bloody kamikaze ninja numbnuts thinking if they wait until last 10 secs they'll get it.

I just chuck my max bid in from the get an be done with it.

What are you going to use to run it ??

232,000yen. Didn't wanna spend anymore then 230k to be honest but like u said I hardly see them on there. This one was the best condition one I've seen on there.

I think you got a good score mate. yeah the bloody time extensions on yahoo auctions shits me. I've been buying off yahoo for over 10 years and lost many nights of sleep back in the early 2000s when auctions would re-extend for hours and hours. ending time would be say 8pm and they'd bloody go until 2am with tiny little bid increases every time extra time was about to finish. drove me insane.

When I was staying in Japan early this year my mate mentioned you can actually use a site to bid at the last 0.001 of a second to win the auction. Found that out after I lost the bid on a GT500 RRR block which went for around 5,500 :(

Waste of time and doesnt always work.

Just work out max you want to pay and throw it in at the start.

Watch it and if it goes past your bid and you want to pay more then throw more bids on.

10 years living in Jappa another 8 on top of that going there on travel business and visa hopping, I learnt a long long time ago not to waste time or energy on dumb stuff the Japanese do.

If you do you will be banging your head against a wall for a long long time.

The Motec 800 will run the V-cam no problems.

Also Midori Seibi have been doing setups with a custom Power Fc that they reset.

Screw the GTR's go a big single..

Autoselect Yellow Shark with V-cam

Big single would be to laggy on the 26 for now, and means my ARC twin entry cooler would be useless :(

Just wanna get the thing running already. I'll be going either Tomei 2.8 or Brian Crower 2.9 later on.

Now to save some funds again for a front diff and a whole heap of Nissan parts.

that was just my point mate. response from the -5s is the key for the track. note kaido_RR build, he's done alot of sensible work. :thumbsup:

    • 99.9% of them are viscous diffs. The 0.01% are helicals. They were only option-able in the series 2, as well. I have redline heavy shockproof in my helical. It seems... fine? I don't think anyone is ever going to know until something really breaks and at that point I'm not sure anyone will blame the oil. I just chose it because it's extremely heavy duty and my car will see not-road-legal duty for it. I've also had sadness with various diff oils in the past sweating out everywhere and/or other 'fun' things, with clutch diffs. Given you have a 1.5 way on the shelf, I'd not even bother with the diff in the car and just get to tinkering with it. I would spend the $90 on oil toward the labor of someone else putting the diff in if time poor even lol.
    • I believe mine is helical and not clutch type. During drifting one wheel was spining as if it was open diff so bought kazz 1.5 way and has sat on my shelf for the past 5 years as I want to learn shiming process and do it myself   in meantime thought I change the diff oil hence post here. So any 75-90?   i am pretty sure r34 are helical not clutch lsd as standard . That is gtt ones
    • Throw between gears are so much that is getting annoying. I have pro short shifter on my mx5 and e36 and love it . Skyline is getting unbearable    would syncro issues and short shifter is no no? Anyone mind explaining a little on why before i buy cube
    • No. Well, some people "seem to use redline shockproof in the diff". Most do not. I would only contemplate it if you have badly worn CW&P gears. And no. No-one in their right mind has ever put ATF into a diff. Any normal diff/gear oil of the right viscosity will do. Whatever takes your fancy. Castrol, Nulon, Penrite, Redline MT range. Whatever. It's just gears. 75W-90 or 80W-90 is typical. I think that GL-5 is hard to avoid these days, although I think that a GL-4 is probably preferred, given the vintage of the equipment. At least Redline offer a number of GL-4 oils. If you have a clutch type LSD instead of the VLSD, then of course you need a proper LSD oil. Anything from any of the same names above. If you have a helical LSD, then it does not require LSD oil, and the recco is the same as for the VLSD. You don't want the LSD friction modifiers in the oil for a non-clutch type LSD if you can avoid it.  
    • You may want to list it up for a little higher - This price is much lower than you may realize. Here you're pretty much selling to people who most likely already have these things on their own rigs. S chassis people eat this stuff up like you'd not believe.
