To fit his new rims

whoops slipped it into a gutter on the exit of a round about after a a car pulled out on me and i decided to tromp it

busted shock, dinted wheel, burst sidewall, wheel bearing now noisy, little damage to one flare

brings forward the need for diff work, new wheels to be put on and the LSD so it's a little more predictable

lol, 4 days of engineering cert is all it took to bend it

thank god the sexy wheels weren't on!

bugger!!! i guess it was for the best motivation wise haha. got any pics of the damage shame to bust those nice flares! very lucky the new rims weren't on!

will this also mean pulling the CA to rebuild it seeings how the car is going to be in bits?

Agreed. Go all out now. Revamp the lot

Bad news about the stack mate.I did the same thing in the y about 2 weeks after I brought it bent one strut the diff and smashed 2 of my rims but at least it gave me the excuse to put the big diff in

very sad news, but i guess it could have been a lot worse

i say do the required repairs and get it back on the road, enjoy it.
it must be a fun car to drive

did a bit of work on the car, pulled an axle out of the h190, 23 spline which i think means the axles are no stronger than a h165? there is 20mm of unused spline meaning i can shorten by 20mm either side without respline, but i need 35mm per side and would prefer 45mm per side. Also it's 80mm to the larger diameter section of the axle, which is probably where i would have to shorten to to re-spline...

So the whole diff thing isn't looking great at the moment, would like to use the topgear torsen i have, but a shortened skyline diff is starting to sound like the easy way out






also fitted some carbon fiber goodness i came across - to see how it looks

that Orange does look AMAZING!!! dunno about the carbon fibre though. not btight enough to suit the car.
feel bad for you hitting the gutter though.
youve inspired me to put a ca18det in my 120y keep up the good work

been driving long
thats no good mik
put in a b/w but std lsd dont last long
mine is going mint got good traction now
