It's a bit like how the improvement in CSI techniques has forced people who steal cars to completely torch them rather than just dump them ..... sad in a lot of ways.

I have seen this car around a fair bit, idiots!

I agree with harsher penalties causing more of this to an extent, but theres that little switch in everyone, every single time i saw lights on behind me my instinct was oh shit gotta pull over, regardless of the situation. thinking i could get away never even crossed my mind. to be the kinda person that even would contemplate initiating a car chase, wow, dont buy a import for our sake.

Couldnt agree more. If anyones ever watched the show COPS you'll know that trying to leg it basically confirms a suspicion of guilt. After all, if you've nothing to hide, why run?

Because if a cop sees you boot it away from a set of lights to 60km/h and wants to pull you over for street racing, it's going to be your word against his. Like I said, being told you're guilty until you prove you're innocent changes the whole dynamic.

And just because you guys don't feel the need to run (and I don't either) doesn't mean that, in that split second, someone else won't make the wrong choice knowing their car is going to be impounded and they're going to lose their licence for 12 months if they stop.

    • IMG_8641.mov     She doesn’t sound the best but starts with out using any gas now. I just ran some injector cleaner through her. started roughly the first time after adding it but gave it the beans slowly upto 4k, Must have cleaned a few cobwebs out. another step in the right direction for the sub
    • Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in
    • Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.
    • 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.
    • 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
