Cheers for that cubes!

Do you do this in your shed with the car on Jack stands, or is a hoist really more necessary?

Also, where can you get a flywheel machined southern suburbs, and any idea of cost?

Cheers!

I've only done one on the ground with jack stands and found it quite easy.

The old man used to have a pit in the house he recently sold; doing a gearbox in the pit was easy to get to bolts etc BUT getting the thing up and down was a pain in the arse as I had no gearbox lift. :D

No idea of where to get a flywheel machined down south, I used to do it down at a mates girlfriends dads mechanics shop at Aldinga when I was younger. I'll have to look soon though as Im up for another clutch soon. :S

Last time I had my flywheel machined the machinist did it as it was also being balanced for the new motor.

Ohhhh noooo scandyflick!!

What happened to the soara?

its still available afaik.

but using the money to move out will be infinitely better for my sanity.

ill have to wait and see though.

:) i'm sooooooooooooo happy today hehe

the lady (Lois) i help out in the op shop asked me today what i'm gonna do

after i've finished me hours there. i said i'd probably continue working there

and she had the biggest smile on her face.

i've only been there just over a month and they already trust me hehe

it's great.

she said it's hard to come by people like me :) (you should all take note of that :))

I tried to do some local volunteer work early last year.

It was a government organisation that helped elderly people get to there doctor's apointments, specialists, etc, etc. So i got all the info and arranged to have a meeting with the manager. And i got there and they laughed at me and said "why would a young person like you want to do that" so i went "ok" then and left.

f**k them if they are gonna laugh at me. Try to do something to help the community.

its still available afaik.

but using the money to move out will be infinitely better for my sanity.

ill have to wait and see though.

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
