    that's why I'd want to discuss my options with somebody who really knows the market and specializes in older cars... Japanese restorations can be a bit hit and miss

    I'm open to anything really... just something that has been done really well at a reasonable price... wouldn't want to be spending much over 30K so nothing really collectable... I like the GTR mock ups but not sure a good one would fall within my budget

    what about z cars, 240's etc... I see a few floating around in Aus but nothing that really interests me... the 240's are pretty collectable now so maybe out of my budget

    sorry gone a bit OT, I'll stop whoring this up now :cheers:

    try these guys, local QLD club, as far as i know, but you might fine some good contacts towards importing what you want..

    Did you think about searching the forum first???

    There is at least 5 threads on the subject and I'm sure you will get the info you want from one of them.

    What's wrong with a turbo on your L24E or do you have issues with 150Kw?

    stop harassing new people Dennis.. lol

    when you say hitting, do you mean its hitting but still fully cranking around or is it stopping when your cranking it?? stopping = bad, hitting = still bad i'm afraid. both really means the head comes off the block, replace a few valves and shes sweet.. just got all the parts in to start my full re-build so i know what a pain it is..

    unless you can hand crank it freely all the way around you are wasting your time with a compression test. the bolt holding the idler bearing in my 25 snapped it idle losing all power, engine turning over fine there and then again but once it cooled down the exhaust valves in #2 dropped onto the cylinder head. if it won't turn all the way around when hand cranking as per above, take of the exhaust or inlet manifold and feel around in the head you'll soon find the problem... who did the timing?? ie: was it like that when you bought it?

    Also the pic really don't help to judge if it was out, line the dot on the inlet cam with the white line on the backing plate on the left on the pic (not the ones at the top) the dot on the exhaust cam should then line up with the other white mark on the backing plate (again not those marks on top) then check your harmonic balancer also shows TDC.. all dots and lines should meet..

    are you emailing BC directly?? find a dealer/re-seller for BC coil-overs, they want your money and will answer faster..

    option 1 garage in Brisbane offer both HSD and BC, look around for a more local option

    i ran HSD HR coil overs in my R31 (s13 conversion) 8kg fronts and 6kg rear, standard spring rates off the shelf. for a daily driver they were stiff but fun.

    i also fitted s-13 fronts in my HR30, can't remember if the r30 tie rod ends fit or not. that may be a more pressing thing to look into.

    s-13 conversions are done all the time in r31's....

    not to many people think quite that far into the process ie engine weights. do it, see if you like it at standard spring rate, change them if your not happy.

    are you going 2nd hand coil overs or brand new, you can at a small extra cost normally get different springs/rates when buying new.

    R32 Brakes To S13 Hubs

    i fitted s-13 gear to my hr30 years ago, sinse then i'll converted my r31 aswell, one simple trick, instead of cutting your banjo bolts get a 3-4mm spacer washer and an extra copper washer, about $5 it cost me. if you remove the hub off the s-13 hub carrier you can take the stone guard completely off too.

    Nice work

    mine made 108 rwhp on the dyno, un-modded, 350K+ on the clock. these cars are 20 years old next month.

    140kw shown in the book is at the flywheel, manual & brand new.

    is yours manual or auto?

    do you have the piggy back ECU that controls the cam, should be in the passenger side wheel well, where your ECU is.

    a good condition GTS2 stock should pull 125-130ish rwhp on a dyno. my guess after 20 years

    mine was a stock standard Auto GTS2 which turned out to not have the piggy back ECU so i wasn't getting the full adv of the gts2 cam.
