Mate you want the biggest internal gate GT30 you can grab. Think Grant does a very good one or buy the HKS GT3037 second hand from JapMotorsport. Get the fueling system sorted as well.

With 400HP @ the motor you will spank the GTR's running std turbos. I'd say 11's with a little bit of mucking about.

before you get too excited adrian this workshop has done some excellent work. a few of my mates have had things fabricated by them and have had no problems

altho i agree that this case its a bit rediculous with the cooler cracking which is quite pathetic. im not making excuses or anything but dont judge the whole workshop and spread bad rumours based on this one case

All is good the shop in question gave me a full refund in CASH so today i orderd a Sub Zero Intake Planium with billet fuel rail and i think he said it was a 90-100mm Throttle Body and a new cooler of MR Mayhem tonight. Now i have to take my factory Planium off and send it to QLD and dont have clue on how to do it anyone want to help :P i need to get it off ASAP

Good news Adam - good to see that the guys you were dealing with had enough business sense to call it a day & refund your money.

Sheet mate - only thing holding you back now will be your hiflowed turbo cos everything else will be upgraded to the max.

Good luck pal - can't wait for you to take me for a spin once the work is done.

I hear Macka is a really good with his tool, so maybe he can help you:)

What about our r31 brethren? Are we yet again not good enough? Pfft!

And PVA why are they still a good workshop? Im not really impressed with the work said welder has done on my cars. PVA's cooler seems to be the rule rather then the exception.

Geeze even my 500 dollar cut up truck core has done a 12

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
