In the race car they can use brake biasing and other adjustments to account for the pitching, but on slicks it makes a big difference. On road you will be having problems unless you walk in to a good suspension place and let them do a complete and costly setup.

Neither appear particularly good quality in the rose joint.

No they are height adjustable as well. They use a circlip around the shock body to give several preset heights without the stuffing about with threads trying to match each end from side to side. Simply compress the springs slightly, lift the lower spring platform and move the circlip to the desired groove for a new height.

Mike has it in one. These would be fine on a super smooth track using slicks, but if you want to drive daily get used to the idea of driving real easy through corners in the wet or over bumps, unless you like the idea of becoming part of the scenery or looking back at oncoming traffic. I have a 30mm rear bar for my Lynx which transforms the handling, but I've had to reinforce the mounting locations due to the stresses applied as it tears standard mounts apart.

Height balance is not super critical. Take it to get corner weighted and maintain the optimum heights for handling. Skylines handle best around 355 mm front and 345 mm rear (centre of wheel to guard). Search for Sydneykids settings for your car to determine the best height.

Excellent find champ. So of course the Japs were the inventors of really cool sliding of cars. NOT!!!

Expremely nice!!!

Someone make an offer. Will fit R33/34 GTR. I havew since discovered that they won't fit R34GTt.

Hey Rod, sure it wasn't Emre He's into SUV's now isn't he? There's nothing worse than some scumbag changing their story so get them to draw a diagram on the spot and sign and date. Chris, has that guy got a tax debt my wife should know about?

Posting the BBQ now.

All too much pseudo-scientific mumbo jumbo in this thread. Find something you enjoy that keeps you active and do it as much as you can. Eat healthy and enjoy the occasional sin. I once had eight months training so hard I forgot about alcohol and was too knackered to think about sex, and all I got was a national open silver medal in cycling. Wasn't worth it I tell yas. Well it was but it wasn't. National coach Charlie Walsh didn't want someone my age (26) on the national touring squad so i had to pay my own way to race OS. Blew it off and did Eng degree instead. Been so up and down the weight ladder. Grunt Sniper carrying 65kg combat load for up to 9 months a year in the scrub I ate everything in sight and smashed weights until I was 110kg of pure Rugby prop love muscle able to run 5km in 19min. Then cycling I got down to 83kg of lean mean peddlin' machine able to sprint to over 80kmh and run 5km in 16min. Yesterday I almost walked 2km without stopping but needed a break from the pain for a couple of minutes. Took me 45 min and felt like I'd never get home. Stay healthy and well for the right reasons, so you can enjoy stuff or achieve real goals. Live you life training so you can train harder and you may just miss out on good bits. Healthy drinking would be for every beer have a nice single malt scotch like the Glenmorangie with a glass of water as well. Damn you can put a lot away like that without pain in the morning. I sometimes add a glass of red wine too but just for the meal. From what I hear of Pete's drinking pace he needs a camelback for the water supply...... and maybe one for the scotch too.

Pretty normal for England. Dropped quite a few seconds on some tight corners. Get a seat as a navigator mate. Start with a Rally Sprint as it can be hard work.

Amazing how many experts come out of the woodwork when it comes to trying to slag FWD, and yet setup properly it can be extremely quick and safe in almost all conditions. Chances are most sledgers have never driven a decent FWD, let alone taken any car onto the racetrack. My own driveway boasts a GTR33, 2 GTS25t's, a Soarer V8 and a Lynx which I have had bags of fun in having setup the suspension nicely. It wouldn't be there if it didn't deserve to be and I'd have an FTO in a flash if the driveway wasn't full. Maybe a GP VerR in a year or so. The FTO is a sensational car if you can find a manual and perfect around town in auto. Not quite in the league of the Honda Type Rs but I've never driven a version R FTO so maybe it has a little extra. Torque steer is not a problem unless you are trying to drive like a tool and inducing wheelspin. At the end of the day it's the lady's choice and having helped a number of my young lady friends choose and haggle for a good price on cars she'd probably be much happier with the FTO. Smaller dimensions so easier to park at the shopping centres (important for ladies), good storage space for all the end FY sale bargains at the shops, doesn't need a big kit to look finished off like the Supra needs, not as high risk for theft, back seats for the girlfriends and will be good on fuel. Good luck shopping.

Always liked the Evos in blue. Heres my IV

And my first long wang run with a pretty doughy turn around

One I've called the washing machine. Smooth on the outside, thrashing on the inside

Great for family day trips. It has its own picnic table at the back

The Recaro rails I used bolted straight up in the GTR33, and 32/33/34 coupes take the same seat base except R34GT's. I must add my rails have very generous mounting holes and need washers for secure mounting.

Nice one Alan. Hope you enjoy it.
