Piglet's Rebuild Of His Busted Tomei 2.8


Recommended Posts

My JB that I had rebuilt recently is softer than the old one, my Starlet clutch feels heavier.

Oh and after putting my big tyres on the back i'm cruising under 3000rpm :) The longer legs are awesome, I actually get boost in first gear now!

So, I went for a drive in Bobby's R34 this arvo. My mind is made up, the OS88 is one amazing bit of kit. There is a bit of a clunk between gears while doodling around which isn't a huge deal. When up it, its very smooth and effortless. I was so surprised at how user friendly it was. I jumped in the drivers seat and played with the clutch - that is NOT how I remember Steveo's OS R3C. Its actually lighter than my Nismo coppermix. It must have something to do with the OS fork which you can buy with the OS88. Yep... that's all I can say lol.

I have a TS3B which is very driveable while I know people with a R3C that are very jerky.

They are cheaper as well and can handle decent power, I just snapped an input shaft with over 700hp and it hasn't skipped a beat.

I just checked and they come with a Hollinger 26 spline option as well :)

No way. It's Nismo. Can't be :P

Like the Nismo cough Toyota cough fuel pump lol

He's talking about my R34 with 3.545s

And to rub salt in, they are probably just standard gears from some 4wd van or something lol

I know the 3.9s are available in a auto rear wheel drive R200 diff from some thing just can't for the life of me remember what, we looked in to it for the BSM car while it was still in IP

Thanks for that, a bit tall I thinks, may have to put one of the 4.11 sets I have in it, which is good cause now I can just drop the spare R32 rear diff ( late model big shaft one ) straight in :)

For shits and giggles do it with 275/35/19s lol
