advokit Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Wow.. This thing is awesome! Its great to see an RX that is actually done tastefully for once (not on 17" lensos). I love the smaller wheels and classic lines too!  Personally I would throw some SSR MK2s on and drop it a little but im partial to Japan styles.  Nice build, enjoy driving it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rotorhoe Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Does anyone know what would cause the car to vibrate aggressively and loudly at exactly 100km? I've tested it as thought it could be the revs but I went 100 in 4th with exact same result and only from 100 to what I guess would be 105/110 (my speedo is out so it reads 120-140). Any slight acceleration on the pedal at the speed makes the sound/vibration. Â Basically it feels/sounds like either steering or exhaust but it has a wicked pull and is pretty freaky especially as it is appearing to get worse. Cullen and Rovers are the only ones who have experienced it recently and they have no idea on what it is. Â I'm putting off pulling it off the road until my end of holidays late July mainly because it's my daily hahah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepers Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 what do you mean by "wicked pull"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rotorhoe Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I may have to explore further. Â Wicked pull happened other day as in 100km then tried going round slight bend and it wanted to pull out /hard to steer is basically what I mean here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0R10N Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Hmm, could be a worn steering arm or idler arm bush. What side does it pull towards? Â Also possibly relevant: I used to get a weird shudder at exactly 80km/h in the Skyline and it turned out the left front tyre was slightly out-of-round.

Yowzer Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Worn wheel bearing perhaps? Jack it up and give the wheels a shake around, see how much play they have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwi808 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Did you lighten the fly wheel? What clutch did you use, was it new, is it an 808 one? Did you check the drive shaft? All the universals? Did you have to modify it to fit? What was the diff like? Did you use the standard 808 diff? Did you check it (808 diffs are shit). What are your half shafts like? ^this.

cletus Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 if its vibrating and hard to steer/pulling, and its happened suddenly-Â check engine mounts havent broken/sagged, from memory the bellhousing is close to the steering drag link. make sure exhaust isnt jamming up the steering, lower arm bushes, wheels are tight, wheel bearings.....

kiwi808 Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Are you putting on the chrome stone guards too? (The bits that go at the rear of the chrome trim) Also, you car looks very very clean underneath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
