hardsteppa replied to hardsteppa's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
thanks dudes....no doubt the tie rods on the delete kits would be stronger. -

I couldn't see any reason while there would be a difference between 93-98 R33 gtst's. Part numbers often change but the part itself is interchangeable. Amayama.com is a great resource to see part diagrams and part numbers specific to each year, and usually has cross-reference numbers...as well as being a great site to buy from.

Something I've been meaning to ask for a while - I have deleted HICAS via a GKTech lock bar and ages back I bought a TOG (standard ebay type) hicas delete kit which is still sitting in its box in the garage. The kit looks solid but a few things I don't see as beneficial - first of all the toe arms are the same as your camber/traction arms, as in you turn the middle section and it shortens/lengthens from both ends at once, and is a fairly coarse thread. The stock tie rods are a finer thread, and will give a much more precise adjustment turn for turn than the delete kit arms. Also on the hub end, the stock ball joints appear to maintain a better angle during up/down movement > less bump steer, with the ball joint pin allowing sideway deflection while still being " fixed"...and replacing with a poly bush bolted to the toe-arm will turn the hub more, aka inducing bump steer. What's the arguments to the benefit of going with the delete kit, apart from it being a more solid setup?

GK Tech poly subframe bushes. These are BRAND NEW - didn't even make it to the garage, and are still in the box. Bought them to address roll centre correction but achieved the same by cutting the top off the whiteline bushes I already had installed so didn't use these. My loss, yo gain. Fits a number of vehicles; details here on the GK Tech website - https://au.gktech.com/polyurethane-rear-subframe-bushes $100.

Aeroflow tube and fin intercooler, 600x 300x 76, 3in outlets. Everyone says something like this but, I can honestly say was only put on car for testing against a bar n plate intercooler of same size (this one had less pressure drop but the bar n plate cooled better) and has seen about an hour's use..So new it still has its plastic wrapper and box, as pictured...just got some minor scuffs in black paint during install, and I dented in the top rail slightly to fit my car (Dent is in the top panel only, not a tube/fin) as pictured. $250ish brand new so grab a deal here at $150.

You sure the belt didn't just wear out and break? You would have needed to do something pretty special to misalign the pulley. And yes the pump is easy to rebuild.

You can remove that bracket no problem, it just unbolts - make sure you unbolt ps line too o' course. Should be able to overdrill n helicoil it if rethreading it doesn't work. -

US youtube vids on modding the 2020 supra, they 3d printed an intake manifold. Pretty sure they did it out of alumininum? Or maybe i was too drinked and misunderstood, but the words 3d, print, intake were definitely there.
