Hmm...got banned from a Veloster Turbo forum for being a "troll"...apparently if I shatter their dreams and tell them that their tuned 160kw atw cars will not beat a Commo VF SS its "trolling"...ignorance is bliss I guess.

Guy's just a random question - I'm wandering out of interest how much were the stags when originally released(in AU$ Roughly). I've got an S2 1999 WGNC34.

A 25t RS Four V was 3.26M Yen when sold new, so probably around the $40K Aus mark in '99. Chepaer than a VTII Commodore SS.

The only cure for that is to buy another one and do all those things to it that you said you'd do differently if you had your time over again.

/experience

ha!

my S1 C34 was 255kw low boost ;)

did everything I wanted.

Ha, if I did it again I'd grab a 26tt Autech and adapt an auto ;)

Studies finished a few weeks ago, started a casual job but am actually in line to get a great gig as a cardiac & vascular radiographer, ie specialize in Angiography

Been getting by under the radar, only ever a few $ away from living under a bridge, so hopefully a new start on the horizon....

Good for you mate; glad to see the hard graft is paying off for you. :thumbsup:

I didn't know whether to post this here or in 'What Did You Do To Your Stagea Today?' But here goes...

Today I dropped an unwrapped Mars Bar on the floor while I was reaching for a slice of pizza from the box on the passenger's seat, and it went right under the seat.

Luckily, I didn't drop the pizza slice, and was able to transfer it to my right hand. But I couldn't reach far enough under the passenger seat to find the Mars Bar while steering and holding pizza with one hand. I think the Mars Bar probably melted.

It could have been a disaster, but fortunately I keep a spare Mars Bar in that little vertical cubby to the right of the centre console, between the boost controller unit and the lighter socket where the car-jug plugs in.

I only mention this to illustrate how important careful food management is to the safe operation of our performance vehicles.

Last time I was in Scotland I asked at the local chippie (chip-shop) for a slice of pizza and she took a slice off a stack and dropped it into the deep fryer with the chips and the cod.

No wonder Scots have the highest heart attack rates in Europe.

Wis' ye could replace arteries wi' braided lines.

nm35 questions

 

how much is the diameter of the lower end of the front shock absorber? 

how long is the shock absorber with the spring?

the length of the rear shock absorber is? what about the rear spring diameter and length 

Spring rate of stock springs?

Keep looking for a Nismo S-tune kit.

stock suspension is way too soft for a 1600kg wagon, even worse once you fit sway bars

S-tune is 20% stiffer, awesome mod.

If you search it at RHD Japan, all the specs are there, you could easily calculate close approximates for stock rates

I'msure people have asked this before but I don't know if anyone has answeredit yet.

The M35 is available from factory with an LSD, at least in PNM35 form. For original specs go to...

...and g33k out. C34 and M35 are both in there.

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
