  2. From experienced track guys.... What pads are you using? what have you tried? Building a R32 M spec for Tarmac rallys... Will have std or dba rotors. Looking at EBC, endless, and Steve has mentioned Ferodo. Have to run M spec/GT-R calipers as must use std 16'' wheeels Look forward to input Ciao

  7. Thanks guys, but no thanks. Have had the shox apart and doing the stack will be easy if I drop out of their range. We are just going to get some springs made to order and go from there. Bilsteins are good no risk. And without seeing them its hard to comment. But I believe have no external adjusters (not needed I know, but makes it easy to find direction... and if it works for Ohlins) and they are rebuilt inhouse, therefore valving info is non exsistant. Thats where I am anyway, so better to taylor make what I have Ciao
  8. You're right... lowering the car does not make it handle better, cos it effects the roll centre. Honda for instance go to a lot of trouble to get their roll centre to optimum by making pivot points and contol arms relatively of equal lengths. Al you are doing by lowering your car is using 50-90mm of the suspension travel, consiquently your handling is moved in the range of movement. As for the drop off or rattle, DMS and Tein have a "helper" or Anti-rattle spring that when the car is static, it is fully compressed. On over extension it is strong enough to keep a little pressur on the main spring and prevents "banging" and rattles.... When I got my car from Japan it had (still has) HA Tein shox and springs... Lowered to 320 hub centre to guard lip. Looked horn, but impractical for my requirments (Targa Tas). So if its asthetics you want, just throw in the springs. If you want handling, like a race car.... buy a race car. or race car suspension Good luck guys
  9. Ok Suspension Wiz... Can you tell me the following F & R details for HCR32 Free Length, Bottom ID, Upper ID, and if you are really good you might even know the rating. My problem is I have just imported a car and it has HA Tein adjustables.... I can put up with the shox, but the springs seem a little stiff for my requirements. Any help appreciated Ciao
  10. Calling wheel Guru..... Hello Doe anyone know of Vesta Wheels???? Do they have a Web site ... Need info on RY Force by Velda They are 17" tri spoke... Thanks and Ciao
  11. Howdy Troops, Gotta detune my car for Targa Tas. Anyone with the following laying in their shed??? HCR32 Airbox - Un modified and piping.. HCR32 Intercooler - and OEM piping... Old HCR32 two door liners ( to be sacrificed for fibreglass template to allow cage intrusion bars to fit) R32 front inner guard covers Well done and thanks... :burnout: seeya
  12. Depends on the type of cage... Obviously a bolt in wont offer the same amount of chassis stiffening as a weld in. But it will be much better than nothng. R32 2doors are same floor pan I think, so 98% they will bolt in HCR32. As for stopping body roll... No it wont. A stiffer car will put more weight on the suspenders. You will still have to look at roll centres, sway bars, shocks/springs etc. But if you put your ill handling GTS over its door handles, thenthe chances of getting a squashed melon are greatly reduced. Merry Christmas
  13. Well Jimmy, Now you can tell your mates that some blonde chick that knew FA about cars and wheels turned up and bought your wheels. by the time you read this they will be eastward bound... Have got four more to pick up in Sydney for spares, hopefully we wont need em. and if you are wondering what I'm going to put on em in stead of your Federals. Have a good Christmas, and upload me a pic when you get those 17's on Ciao :burnout:
  14. Hey dude, Where abouts are you in Perth? Are the wheels still available? By new, do you mean still with stickers? or are they just better than 80%? Do you have pics? What tyres are they? E-mail me here if you wish...... Ciao
  15. The pic on the left is my mates girl... Now she is high maintenance and is about to leave if he doesnt buy her more daggy clothes. So that is why the price may well be too expensive!!! But check it out, phone the guys, and nail down a deal. If you are serious. Go on :uh-huh: It is quite original, and and probably with my 17x8s will look trick... Merry Christmas
  16. A bolt in obviously... Interested if it is CAMS compliant, but not at that price.... New from BOND cages round $900. That is homoligated. If the price is fixed, Hvae a good Xmas guys Regards
