Hey im looking into gettin a front mount for my 32 in the near future and i would like to know what you recommend....also where is the best (quality for money) place to get it fitted. My budget is fair for a uni student / part time at woolies so i dont want anything too ridiculous in price.

Cheers for your help in advance.

Doug.

yep, I have the Just Jap Hybrid copy kit on my R34. Bloody good value for $499, and basically the cheapest price around. Only have a go at fitting it yourself if you are very handy with tools and some metal fabrication (like Duc :laugh: ).

I would hate to think what a workshop would have to charge to fit it though - took Duc and I around 10 hours to do mine :P

the just jap hybrid (i think) kit is the best bang for your bucks. cooler does its job and the piping is quite light. any workshop would be able to fit this basic modification for you, i dont know how much they would charge though. maybe try fitting it yourself? as an aussie would say, give it a go. you have nothing to lose.

yep, as Joel said, you have to cut it - but not to pieces.

You really need to 'shave' some off the inside of the bar to refit it.

Not a dramatically hard job to do, but a pain nonetheless (and you get molten globs of plastic on you if you use an angle grinder - OUCH!)

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
