I'm using the Z33 diff as well...

Right, I think that might be why the driver axle was too long when you first tried it. The r200 is a bit narrower than the z diff.

Sorry man, no info yet since I haven't started work on the crossmember but I'll keep the thread updated.

This weekend was an adventure. Shattered the rear window on the way to day one of Nola Speed and Style. Motor threw a tantrum on the way to day two. Still, got some killer tandem action in with my good friends, got to meet some pro drivers, see them rip on the big track at Nola, and even drift with Nate Hamilton on the skidpad.

Looking forward to November 22nd. Hopefully the car will be back up to 100% and ripping with my brother in his car.

Thanks guys. Family is safe. Brother owns the red VQ car and his house got three feet of water. Father and uncle flooded too. My neighborhood stayed dry but for three days we could only get out via boat. Whole region got freak-of-nature amounts of water with something like 110k homes flooded. I have so many friends with flooded cars; some really nice... R32 Sedan, Mk4 Supras, S2ks, so many S chassis... It's heartbreaking.

The VQ ECU went into rice the other day and the harness is looking ok but will need to be completely removed and ohm'ed out, then sprayed with anti-corrosive. Probably drain all the fluids, pull intake, exhaust, turn the crank by hand a few times and go from there.

Very much so. We've VQ swapped three cars so far. The red RevUp hatch that flooded is my brother's. We're in the process of tearing it down. My neighborhood didn't flood but we were surrounded by water. Several of my family members got feet of water in their homes. My uncle got 6' of water. :_(

Hiya! I wrecked it. Well, rather I got hit.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZPFV5ECqLY



Pulled the bent crap off and kept drifting.



Got home and hammered the front straight'ish



tubed the front



and back on the road.



Currently working on a rewire since the car has panic attacks when it's wet.

It was a love hate relationship. Ultimately I ended up moving back to FL just because I wasn't the right age to live in the quarter and my allergies we're constantly killing me from the old construction. I definitely miss the life style though.

How's the power with the stock HR? I picked up an HR swapped s13 recently myself. I just don't know if I'm going to miss the old turbo sr20 feel or if i'll like new car.

Sorry I haven't been on the forum much since the pic hosting thing broke all the links.

So I think I spaced the passenger side IIRC, and the driver side was pushed all the way in. I recently remade my subframe and whatever combo of Z axles was working for a while until I destroyed my driver side at an event. Shattered the inner joint. I need to post some pics. I ended up making a custom stub so that I could run stock Z axles instead of modifying the shaft.

I love the power but the gearing leaves me wanting sometimes. I really just spend a lot of time banging limiter in second.

Car is pretty gnarly now. I've since tubed the front, smashed the rear into a wall, and then tubed the rear.
