  1. Hi mate i know you didnt list them but you have every thing else in the area, im after a set of original R32 GTR injectors. Im also interested in the 3 sets of seals. Thanks
  2. Hey mate Just a quick thought about your possible thrust bearing noise, The thrust bearing is the bearing that is connected to the end of the clutch fork and when you push your clutch down it actually pushes on the spinning clutch pressure plate causing the clutch to release. So if you get that you will be able to work out that when your foot is off the clutch your thrust bearing isnt turning or if is just touching it is under no load ie no noise. What you are probably hearing is a bit of gear box noise and when you put your foot on the clutch the gearbox stops so you can select a gear. Alot of cars have an amount of noise from their boxes and it really isnt a problem unless it gets worse or is loud. I would change your box oil just to be safe and then just monior the noise and if it gets worse deal with it then.
  3. hey mate i justcaught your thread and i went through the same thing at the end of jan just before i went to the track on australia day. Yes the LSD oil is ok to use in the non LSD diff but not the other way around. I found that after i changed my rear diff oil the diff was noticably looser than before ie spinning the inside wheel more, Im not really happy and i think that when i got all the info for doing my oils that they said you can put lightweight shock proof in the rear diffs but it makes them really tight. If you need to check anything i called the number on the web site and they were really helpful. Let me know what your rear diff does when you change the oil mine is prob just getting worn out!
  4. Hi Sk Great thread you got here Helping out alot of people. Just a quick question, ive got a r32 gtr and havnt been able to find out what the standard rates are? I am very interested in the difference f to r. Also what rates and brands would you recommend for a car that is going to see around 6 track days a year and a bit of road driving? It might also be good if people listed what type of car their springs were going to go in. Thank for your time
  5. Hi Guys Just a quick run down of my experience with the torque split contoller. I own a R32 gtr that is quite standard it only has a power fc, adjustable camber and castor arms and a cat back and of course the TSC(torque split controller). I took my car down to wakefield for the australia day track day with the autosports guys and had a great time. I only just got my car ready for the day because i had a minor front ender in it a week before christmas and it took a while to get all the parts sorted, but we got there even with a left hand front shock that by half day had leaked all its oil out and realy had alot of trouble keeping the wheel on the ground. The shocks abd springs all look original so they have done ok being 17 years old, they will be changed very soon. OK so the tsc because thats what you will be here to read about. First session out i took it easy after getting the PFC tuned and a totally different wheel alignment done a couple of days earlier. But i found that the car really wanted to slide out of corners. The rear diff is also getting quite worn which was letting the inside rear wheel spin which really didnt help with getting the power down. About halfway through the first session (4to5 laps) i didnt like how it felt and wasnt getting the power down at all well so i changed the TSC from standard (map 1 no gain) to map 2 and 10% gain and the difference was huge! Being able the get on the gas erlier and alot harder it really changed to feel of the car. It felt and was alot faster through the tighter corners where before i really had to pedal it, now i could just accelerate out of the corner. Through changing the drive to the front it held a tighter line by feeding the power to the front earlier and also helped with mid corner turn in. I left it at this setting and thought that i needed to learn the track and get my lines a bit sorted. Later on in the day i started playing with the gain looking for the best exit out of the last corner onto the straight. I didnt get a chance to play with the other maps but found that just on map 2 i was able to tune everything from power on understeer due to the front wheels breaking trackion to nice smooth neutral oversteer just by adjusting the gain. The biggest thing i found was that it made the car alot easier to drive faster on the track. Ill be heading to eastern creek in a couple of months with coilovers and am really looking forward to seeing what it can do around corner 1.
  6. Thanks for everyone who was interested the car got sold this morning.
  7. Hi guys yeah sorry its white in colour but the paint is getting pretty thin. it runs out on the 16th of jan and the price is negotiable. Still trying to get some pics sorted but been real busy and my bro took the camera to nepal.
  8. heaps of WD40 and if the dump pipe studs feel really tight get a mate or somone who knows whats going on to help. Its alot easier to undo it rather than break it off and have to get the stump out.
  9. All to their own as if you look at the two cars they are quite different animals for starters the gtr was about twice the money than a 99 wrx and i think it shows when you dump the clutch hard into second, the the bang from the rear of the rexs can be a little unnerving. The other things are 2 door vs 4 door and about 7 or 8 years difference in age. But i have done quite alot of driving in both and although i own a gtr i would deffinatly consider a 99 or 00 rex. for all those who hate the understeery feel try a bigger rear sway bar and anti lift kit and a good alignment by somone who knows how to set one up and they feel great. but while im young and dumb ill keep my gtr!
  10. Hey, i hope so the PFC i bought last week says R32/R33gtr on the back so it better work.
  11. Hi guys its been a while since anyone has posted up here but its good to see the old girls are still around and that there are people to love them. Just to let you all know i have a C210 2 door in the for sale section (sorry for jacking the thread) but it would be better going to one of you guys than the wrecker.
  12. hi i am very interested in the unit and have been looking around for somthing similar for quite a while. i was just wondering about the installation of the unit. is it just four or five solder joints like some of the other style units around or a plug in set up. Also either way i am very interested and is there a wait, for a R32 if it matters though they should all be the same i think.
  13. i can try and sort out some pictures but it might take a while if you are at all interested come and have a look and ill take almost any offer. i have three other cars and it really has to go.
