10.67 is pretty impressive for an RB20. What's a quick run down of your engine? There have been a number of decent power RB24's over the years in AUS that I'm sure would have been to the strip but they don't really count do they haha.

I'll see if I can upload a video to youtube at some point. Here's some pictures for now. It was fairly close to lifting the front wheels in first and when hitting second as you can see in the photo. Higher launch control, a bit more power and some suspension tweeks might do it. The cars got some blow by issues now but still runs fine. I think I might make the jump to an RB25 neo as I need the bigger transmission anyway (been through 3 RB20det trans, typically synchros get chewed off within a weekend or you break shift forks).

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

      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
