Hi all,

New to SAU, but somehow I signed up for here in 08. Was probably looking for a stagea at that time.

Recently I've inherited a v35 Premium with the 3/3.5lt v6. This place is loaded with info so thank you very much!

Gotta wait a few more years to get a mates r33 on club plates, but will drag him out for the all Datsun day in Yarra Glen.

If anyone has a good contact for body parts that would be awesome, currently need a front passenger side guard due to a dent, and maybe a bumper for the right price.

Currently dealing with a miss/knock/fuel issue (car sat for well over a year) hopefully I'll change the oil, filters, clean the pick ups and clear the codes. Should all be peaches then.

Must read v35 threads?

Things to avoid like the plague?

Even links to threads will suffice. And after 50+ pages of bickering and bullshit, I'm still none the wiser as to who can convert the screen to English. Just a username will suffice.

Cheers and Beers,

Mark

      R34 Diff oil

      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.

      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.

      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
