  1. Tape for protection at track days? Is this the type of stuff people use? http://www.supercheapauto.com.au/Product/Norton-Blue-14-Day-Masking-Tape-48mm-x-50m/324007 If not what tape is it I've seen on the leading edges of nicer cars at track days to protect from stone chips etc?
  2. Given ride height of the car (even with it on max height as the BCs are just a low coilover) and all factory arms there was only so much that could be done. Car is driving straighter now though. Ended up with roughly: Front: Camber: Approx -1.5ish both sides Toe: Approx 1mm toe out both sides Caster was around 3.5-4 both sides, no adjustment in that factory, need to do the R33 conversion with separate arms. Rear: Camber: Approx -2 both sides. Toe: approx 1mm toe in both sides. See how it goes.
  3. I have 2 stage ramps, drive on, creeper. Done. And can still reach in from the top as needed.
  4. Only 3m wall height here. Did think about a hoist or maybe a small portable one but the neighbour had one first and said I was welcome to use it anytime which so far has been 0. When I think about what I'd use it for I rarely need to go very high anyway, suspension work, brakes etc, even subframe swap was easier close to ground as I was benching it in solo. So for me a smaller portable 1.2-1.4m lift would be more than enough but I don't really work on the cars enough to warrant the spend.
  5. I forget you city folks are often doing this in confined spaces. Spent some time cleaning up last night.
  6. Nice work, if you've got wood working skills you can make some Bunnings aero like on my Silvia
  7. Cheers, had that part, just wasn't sure if there was an N1. Seems it's just another N1 myth.
  8. I warned him he shouldn't keep dosing on an empty dose tank, but he couldn't help himself.
  9. He's keeping it coz he blew the turbo being too hektik.
  10. R34 N1 Balancer? Was there ever such a thing or only for the R32?
  11. So are the factory arms adjustable? Offset bush or something? EDIT: Just looking at pics of the LCA, didn't realise it was all one unit including castor with no adjustment essentially.
  12. I didn't think there was any adjustment in factory castor arms?
  13. Aligner is telling me if I can grab some castor arms before coming in that would be good as they're not adjustable factory and tend to pull left because they're a bit shorter one side from factory so they will pull left naturally. Any truth in that?
  14. I would of thought lower profile = stiffer sidewall = good?
  15. Too hot for delicate Nissan's mean
  16. I'd like to drive Jessica Alba, but I think my missus would care a bit
  17. Thanks, that's about what I was expecting with the exception of more neg rear camber than front?
  18. Good to know. I still can't get past the "presence" thing. I now looks are subjective, but even when "done up" they look like a young mans car. Which I'm not anymore Anyway, when is the next track day so you can see how much better it goes or is it getting too hot now?
  19. Fair enough, thanks for the feedback.
  20. What put you off the X? I know there's a good few KGs weight difference between them, the X being close to a 34R I think?
  21. Yeah been chatting with him, his isn't build like that though. I dare say that would eat Pete's for breakfast. EDIT: I take that back, dude told me it only has 240kw.. Pete's is close to 300.
  22. An interesting counter offer.... The car did come from Canberra actually, maybe it was always meant to be yours. As for your list, I would rebuild box. Reliability/avoiding further damage over upgrades IMO.
