well...is the disc exactly in the centre between the 2 sides of the caliper? even 1/2mm can make a big difference, so most likely either the wrong offset disc or inaccurate caliper brackets. The good news is, inside too tight can be corrected using shims or washers between the hub and the caliper to space the caliper inwards a little. The G4/D2/Ksport 8 piston brake kits come with shims for this exact purpose because they know not to trust the factory's "tolerances" 2nd....some pads are simply bigger than others new. You can always grid a little off. 3rd....if it is actually a piston not retracting ie if you pull the caliper off and you can't get the piston to sit flush....then you have a seized piston and this will stuff your braking performance. In this case remove the caliper and get it rebuilt, may be expensive if the brake piston or bore are damaged.

yep...in this thread somewhere! http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ma...ld-t221982.html

like I said...can if you have to we did in the race car but in a road car, just replace them

damn straight....vic love u turns I could not understand it. there were even ads on the highway like...."Hicktown VIC, worth doing a U-turn for!" not legal here at lights

you can definately get the gtr outers seperate...I have a bought a pair in the past

Kel and I are in too! Thanks Matt.

yeah I had to go nissan to replace that ball joint too. you can re-engineer the vwhole thing to take a bush and fixed arm if you need to, but I guess not

well....very kind of just jap to offer a refund if that is the case!

so.....did anyone from here give this a shot?

theres a place on the corner of princes hwy and canal rd in st peters near the airport. they have always had them on the shelf when i needed one. starters too

good luck with the build Noddy....I'd love to pull the engine out after 3 years to check it was OK lol. as for the harnesses, I use rollcage for 2 rear points, factory seatbelt points for rear 2 and have put an eyelet with reinforced plate in the floor at the correct location for points 5 and 6. Factory points are great you know they have been comprehensively engineered and tested.

I've had plastic crimpies in the car for years

yeah there are a billion bushes and bits that can wear....but the subframe bushes are a good bet. actually replacing them is a big job (subframe out) so many people chuck in "pineapples" to lock the damaged bushes in place. other than that....one of: diff backlash worn wheel bearings worn lower control arm ball joints worn rear lower inner control arm bushes worn rear upper inner control arm bushes worn rear upper outer control arm bushes worn rear upper inner traction arm bushes worn rear upper outer traction arm bushes worn rear hicas balljoints worn rear inner tie rod ends worn rear outer tie rod ends worn diff bushes stuffed cv joints (axles) stuffed tailshaft uni stuffed tailshaft cv gearbox clearance or bearing issues worn gearbox mount bushes

not to mention you need to pull the whole motor apart and clean it thoroughly to remove the bearing material from everywhere. you are mad if you just chuck new bearings in and bolt it back up again

Basically Selby bought the factory when Whiteline moved their manufacturing off shore a couple of years back. Selby's ownership has changed and Gary is no longer involved. Basically - Selby's are a brilliant bunch to have around, I love that we can get hold of locally made sway bars for these cars. Whiteline though remain a great choice for cheap, generic sway bars that will suit 80% of cars....and bigger swaybars are about the best modification you can make for a car's handling BTW yes Cisco hollow gear will be a 1kg or 2 lighter if you think that is more important that price and adjustability. Obviously they are also softer for the same diameter so make sure you get the next size up if you want the same effect.

sorry mate I've got some bad news for you....they might discourage them but it won't stop em....I've still got drool everywhere!

hey they both start with "T" Thanks Shant...we are very much an "amateur" show compared to the Autosalons of the world, but the committee have been working their arses off getting a great location, great feature cars, great sponsors and a long entry list. I reckon the guys are doing a great job considering its a second job! We still have heaps of space available for cars and want to make this show HUGE! If you thought about coming along but don't think your car is special enough.....ENTER! This is a club event not a global domination and its all about participation

Maybe no wheelspin is occuring Seriously though I'm not sure that wheelspin is actually in input to the ATTESSA ECU - those pins may just got straight through to the ABS computer in the same place. I am pretty sure Lat G, Long G and throttle position are by far the most important inputs so I would suspect TPS first.... BTW I is there any truth to the rumour this car will be on display at the SAU NSW Show n Shine in 2 weeks?

well....if it is a big end bearing the noise will get louder with revs. so have a good listen at idle then quick rev. if the knock is still there but it gets louder/the note changes, it may well be dead. I take it you've still got oil pressure? The open top on the can is probably safe for now, like you said it should have a filter. What breathers are on the stock system and what do you have hooked up atm?

drag it on down.....it doesn't need to be able to drive to take part we'd strongly prefer entries before if at all possible so we can organise layout, space etc.

yep got yours EK

I reckon you should post up in the motorsport section what you are after

got yours a couple of time stilo guys no real need to confirm entries, we will shortly post up a list of forms and monies received for everyone to check.

sure....whatya need just standard stuff to get it moving? genelle....i reckon my race car can give your's a run for worst in show....shes got a fair few scrapes and scratches up close these days
