WHAT?!?!?! I'm surprised this thread hasn't been locked like the rest of your threads due to the fact it makes no sense. Please re-read, re-phrase, and then wait for an answer before posting another thread.

Damn I feel dumber just reading your post... What the hell are you trying to say kid?!

What a worthless post, what is this even doing in the RB section?? I'm stumped... Maybe someone else can make sense of your ramblings

Edit: your post subject is classic, because it's what we're all wondering about what you wrote here.........

Maybe you should get your mom to help you wright a question. I was lost after "i". Or just use the blinky search thing it works wonders. Theres lots other things to worry about besides speeding in a 240. try searching differential or drive shaft.

Ill try to convert!!! LOL

I think he is saying when he is running his car hard on top end prob over 100MPH it is making alot of noise. Not sure if it has a vibration or what but he is asking if it could be his U-Joints or possibly the rear end going bad. Also if changing the rear differential fluid would help with the noise.

Thats the best I got out of it!

Jeremy number 2....is that you?!!??!! Hahahahaa you're one dumb mofo!

I have this friend named Jeremy no.2 and when he talks he doesn't make sense. I don't know if its a lack of education or a bump on his head from early childhood years, but, whatever it is...it sure is funny!

Hahahaha. It would be the best solution if you plan on giving up anytime soon. No one hates you here man. Just like I said in your other thread lol that you need to search man. Things like this have been covered multiple times and no one likes repeating themselves like a broken record. Don't worry the answers are out there. Your not the only guy out there with this problem. You know? Please don't think we are hating on you. Just cut back with creating threads of different questions.

hmmm maybe when the motor is in the car the trans is biased to the left or to the right, that could mean you need to adjust the mounts hence why there are slotted

what happened to grammar school these days, probably all these underpaid and under-qualified teachers?!? my advice, type in simple english, just easier to understand.

btw! it could be the rear sub-frame bushing is bad giving the excessive swaying in the rear.

it has nothing to do with your problem. did you even read your post?

here let me show you, because i honestly dont think your proof read it.

"i top end with my car. 89 240sx HB light weight car with RB20DET but i have a small concern with when i top end. U JOINTS, or rear end differential (its a stock one wheel peal) not at all happy with that. but im thinking i should change the gear oil in the rear end dunno what it could be or the worst it could be is a out of line driveline?any ideas are help full. thanks"

what the hell does that say? you need to realize we cant see or feel your problem, so you need to be very descriptive and TRY to make it easy to understand.

p.s. dont top your car out on public roads.

p.s.s. dont make fun of the people who will be answering your question. realize we are here because we want to help people, but not if YOU dont help US by telling us what the problem is.

looks like mommy's boy got offended from a little bit of teasing.

@MyLiLsKyLiNe: it's no harm, lighten up! all they are trying to say is get your question/message out clearly so you can be understood. people can not help answer your question, instead trying guess what the heck you are trying to say. Ever watch that movie "Bable" ??

ok . whew. i top end one day on I-90 here in WA. and as i was in high 4rth gear i was doing around 80ish mph. then as i shift into 5th gear. and climing on my MPH around 120MPH it starts to vibrate a bit. could it possible be the driveline? and or the stock (one wheel peel) rearend differential? or the U joints? (these are the things i can think of that could be causing the problem. P.s. i dont top end all the time. just seeing what it can do stock. also too .... i hope my somewhat detailed story here is good enough for those who are wanting to help me on what they think could possibly be the problem. also too i know you all talk about the posts and read before you ask a question because its all on the search and all but, just want to ask you guys here at nicoclub.com the questions. or why else why join at all? so anyways hope to here some POSITIVE and, very HELPFULL information.ROLANDO (this is my real name)

Multiple things can cause Vibration on a high end pull.

It could range from tires out of balance, bad U-Joints in the drive shaft, bad axle bearings, Worped rotors, bad ring and pinion gear in the rear end, ETC.

First thing is start with the little stuff.

Have your tires checked, at 120MPH I hope you have good tires.

Second, check your U-Joints, Im sure they have never been greased, just crawl under the car move the drive shaft back and forth and make sure the u-joints are good and tight. Also with a bad U-Joint you will hear it pop every now and again.

Also make sure your bolts on the carrier bearing are tight, and the carrier bearing is in good condition.

Third jack up the car pull your wheels off and spin them around and wiggle the wheel back and forth top to bottom to make sure the wheel bearings are not bad.

and if all this checks out ok and it still vibrates bad you possible have something going bad in the rear end which is highly unlikely. I have not heard of anyone having problems out of it causing vibration on a 240 but in other vehicles I have seen this happen.

Hope this helps!!

its probably wheel balance. a driveline problem would vibrate long before that (usually)

but dont go that fast on the street stupid. go to a racetrack.
