Awsum work man!
Super jelous of u being able to enjoy the finished product haha

thats awesome, love the video!!!

Cheers guys.
 
Went to replace the busted uni joints on the tail shaft and worked out that the gearbox yoke is twisted!!!!
Now I have a decision to make, get another of the same yoke, or get another tailshaft made up with bigger uni joints and stronger yoke etc.
Pic of the yoke

 
 
 

Turns out the yoke that failed is an aftermarket unit, made out of crap material and not as strong as oem Nissan yoke.
Sourced a Nissan yoke  and replaced uni joints with some Hardy spicer performance uni joints, probably could have done with a tailshaft balance but will do that later. Tailshaft is back in, ready for some more action....

good work, now go out and find the next weakest part. its a fun process doing so. and when u stop breaking things add more power
 

just wondering what u think of the R1R's you have on the car. How highly do you rate them over a more normal style of tyre.

as a passenger in this car, i will get in with my 2 cents
 
THOSE TYRES ARE AMAZING, my research has been done these are the tyres ill be fitting too the panelvan hands down
 

R1Rs r a solid choice of tyre...

been a passenger in this car too and i agree. very good tyre

Thanks mish,
This is the first breakage/failure in two and a half years! Had I sorted the rear suspension to eliminate axle tramp there probably wouldn't be a failure......I expected some axle tramp but **** .....that **** was violent. Car has been very reliable
And that's what I love about it the most.
More power hey, funny you should mention it because I am looking at some upgrades at the moment and its very hard choice mainly because I am trying to retain current low end and midrange while looking for a bit more top end power. I realise what I want may not be possible so I am prepared to compromise a bit.
Careful turbo choice and few other mods should get me there, but if I don't succeed I will go back to current turbo and do some 'tweaks'.

Tyres, well I love these R1Rs so much that when these are worn out I'll be getting some more. As others have mentioned already simply impressive.

Cheers
