That is absolute robbery. :O

I paid $550 for mine in VIC and thought that was steep for something which does nothing. No yearly subscription like in NSW either..

$220 per year for mine, [ IDDQD ]  i guess its cheap if your keeping it for over 10 years

$550 is noice though

Dropped her down and rolled her out onto the driveway for a much needed wash.  Jacked her back up this morning and managed to get another 1L of oil into the trans and bolted the tailshaft back in

Got off my ass today after work and decided to throw the new rad in. Little bit of fkin around but not too bad. Was mainly because I couldn't see much once the sun went down..... Keen to see how this goes. Will be changing the radiator cap to a Tridon 1.1 bar some time shortly as well.

Car was running weird af after my radiator change, so just decided to rewire my fuel pump to see if that was a cause. Did that today and she seems to be running sweet! Still hunts on idle every now and then which sucks ....

Started running like shit again on saturday night, sputtering and carrying on. Checked it all yesterday and found my battery was only getting 12.8v @2k rpm. Threw a new alternator in and good to go, 14.1v at idle. Took her for a drive, drives mint again. 

All my stuff from Jesse streeter has been ordered now, cams aren't in stock again till later this month so will be waiting a little on those. But my stubs and headgasket are getting sent off shortly :)

Should be sweet when its all in. Im planning on getting an eliminator kit, just heard the balljoint is a pain to press out.

Which eliminator kit did you get?

Thread hijack, I bought one of the eBay ball joint presses like Johnny used on his post here http://www.trak-life.com/diy-hicas-delete-hicas-eliminator-kit/
Chucked my AEG battery impact on the back of it after cutting the faces of the ball joints flat and out they came. Total of 20 mins a side including cutting - Had more issues with my camber arms than the elimination kit. If you need more details send me a PM and I can help.

Drags didn't go so well, was ford and holden night so packed. Only got 3 runs in so didn't really get to figure out whats good and whats not with the launch control. End up running 12.5, 12.7, 12.7, far from my PB 12.1. Can't hook up off the line, needa get that diff and subframe bushes in asap! 

Picked up these bride reps today for a reasonable price. Gave them a quick clean and threw em in. Almost full racecar spec now :P

HG and stubs have been shipped from Jesse, should be here next week sometime :D Also ordered a ball joint press kit off ebay to do my hicas eliminator kit (thanks for the tips kingtube), expecting that next week as well. Will replace my front tie rods as well and get a wheel alignment. Anyone have any alignment recommendations for a street car?

I decided that I only want to pull the rear end apart once, so may as well do it properly. Bought Whiteline subframe bushes, Superpro front and rear diff bushes and traction rods as well as my hicas eliminator kit that will all go in at the same time as the diff. 
Ordered valve springs from Goleby's as they had them instock and not to mention $50 cheaper! Should be here this week along with my traction rods. Cams arrived at Jesse Streeter yesterday so they will be sent out today/tomorrow with arrival next week sometime. All coming together now :D

Forgot to add these vids from Roll Racing the other night. Always have a ball out there. Mate rode out to watch so I told him to get a passenger pass and ill take him for a spin. Only got 3 watchable vids from the runs. Need to find my cam so I can start recording myself.

      R34 Diff oil

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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

      R34 Diff oil

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      Short shifter r34

      By Duncan · Posted

      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
