A wierd thing has started happening!

Basically I replaced the battery 4 days ago cos rac came cos my battery went flat and they replaced it..

Then every morning since the motor won't start! And then in the arvo I can start it :s. 

Rac came and said no leak in the battery and nothing outta the ordinary was happening while he tested wen the engine was off. 

Anything that could explain this?

Does the car make any sound (i.e. a click sound) when you turn the ignition key in the morning?

wtf is with ppl with 2 posts putting up all these questions lately.

firstly people are more likely to help if you go ahead and actually properly explain the situatin, secondly if your asking for someones help it might be an idea to not be a tool and actually say "please" or "thanks"

wtf does this mean "Then every morning since the motor won't start! And then in the arvo I can start it :s. "

is the car starting at all? when rac first installed your new battery did it start etc

:mellow:

      R34 Diff oil

      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.

      Short shifter r34

      How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box

      Throws on the FS5R30A in most Nissans of this era are actually quite short and direct compared to any remotely modern BMW with the S6-53 transmission. Those things have throws a mile long with rubbery vague everything. Synchro issues combined with a short shifter is just going to break everything even faster.

      Only thing I'd add...is on recommendation from a good diff shop, I've used mineral oil in my diff including the race car for years. The synthetics can be too slippery and glaze the gears
