Both Waterford Panel Beater and Kudos Motorsports have been more than helpful in assisting during the whole insurance claim and helping me decide whether or not to go ahead with the restore work on the gtr. Unfortunately the cost of restore is more than what I would like to pay.

Waterford Panel Beater

James is a down to earth person with a passion for restoring cars to excellent condition, kinda reminds me of Dan from ERD. Unfortunately I've decided to not keep to car but I am sure he will do a good job if I did. This is based on the work I see him do and reviews from friends. My experience with him has been nothing but good. He is a busy man but never fails to follow up on request and I do feel bad interrupting him during work. Before the accident I thought only Cameron Body Works the only go to for panel work but now I know where to bring my next car to should I need any work done.

Kudos Motorsport

Andrew is quick and positive about everything. The list of parts I gave him wasnt exactly easy but he manage to turn that around within 3days with a really good price too. To anyone after parts, definitely give Andrew a go. I have bought parts from him in the past and he's been extremely helpful all the time. He's just located at Gold Coast which makes collection easy too.

Cheers.

Ant: I was involved in a 4 car accident on my car to Dreamworld. The car in front of me was too close to the car in front and jammed brake. I don't think I'd get out of it even if I were to go through it again because I was a good 3-4 car behind her. Anyway that's all history.

Nooba: That's what he said to me when he bought it off me. I was actually looking for someone to restore it and if I cant find anyone, I'll let it go to someone that's gonna wreck it. Anyway that's disappointing but it's his car anyway.

Hopefully the inspection will go well tomorrow for my next car. Else I'll just be driving around in a 4cyc turbo diesel until I got money for a R34 M-Spec NUR.

thats a real shame. Brandon. I recall an accident happening around dreamworld a few weeks ago.

Only just realised you had an N1

Such a shame. At least you have insurance

Best of luck with the NUR spec mate

      Nismo coppermix twinplate clutch

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
