SAU.NSW will be doing a cruise JTCC from Windsor to Singleton (tomorrow) along a lengthy road called Putty Road.

At the Singleton end (located on Google Maps), there are lots of twisties; so I'm looking forward to seeing how balanced the car is.

There's no geometric difference in this wishbone set that I installed 2 months ago...

Wishbone%20Links%20Rear-1_zps49l6ej6f.jp

but the tensile strength is different I'm sure. Doing so much in such a short period without me taking out the car for long stretches - but only for short hill climbs - is testing my memory a bit I must admit.

The nuances of each add-on are probably going to be somewhat imperceptible.

Yea I have had my eye on the nismo arms and circuit link kit also. Just to refresh the stock suspension. I'm sure the stiffer bushings will give the car a more solid feel. Especially replacing 25 year old factory bushings lol. From what I have read, the sway bars make the biggest change in getting rid of the factory understeer feel. Which I'm no race drive lol, but I think my stockish GTR with HKS coils and advan rubber already handles like a dream lol. Makes me really wonder what it feels like with something decently modified. Have fun on the cruise! Its summer down their.....we got winter lol. But it was 70 yesterday :)

Has anyone seen or heard of a Nismo branded gearbox shroud thing that sits around the top of the shifter to prevent oil coming out the top?

Someone told me about it but I haven't seen it or anything like it for sale anywhere.

Most likely. They go for around $200-250 depending on condition.

I don't know why the aussie market is so over priced lol. I just sold 2 of mine for 100 bucks USD (140 ish AUD). You can get these on yahoo japan all day for in the 7,000 to 10,000 yen range. The yellows are more rare and go for about $120ish USD (170 ish AUD). I think I will start selling parts to Australia lol. I have a lighter brand new in box never opened, wonder what you guys would pay for that lol. I've noticed you guys go crazy over nismo keys to. 8 points are higher priced than 10 points here. Can find 10 points on yahoo japan all the time for like $250 USD or so. 8 points seem to be disappearing quite fast, brings a higher price.

I recently pick up another Nismo Key to add to the collection at an affordable price.

There are more available from the Sydney seller in Kirrawee on eBay

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Nismo-Key-Suit-Skyline-Gtr-300Zx-Silvia-Datsun-Owners-/281930600587?

Pretty sure you'll find those are non-genuine.

It also looks identical to http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Nismo-Key-Blank-Nissan-Skyline-GTR-Silvia-R32-R33-S13-S14-R31-/301863018274?hash=item4648701f22:g:CPsAAOSwnLdWsBrS ... which is also at a much lower price.

Nismo Key Blanks

These have been designed based off the original keys and updated with the current Nismo logo
These reproduction keys are limited production so get in fast once they are gone they are gone.

    • I wouldn't be concerned at all, other than to suggest having them flow tested when you receive them to confirm they are reasonably similar, and then put the highest to lowest flowing ones in cylinder 6,1,5,2,4,3
    • I’m only posting this cause I thought I had seen a bad review on these somewhere before. Any feedback? Would you guys recommend that if I do buy these I send em to RC to have em checked before installing. Or any other suggestions?   https://www.ebay.com/itm/114009965865?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=JDl-15yLQ8C&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=QTzlFXB1S-S&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now.
