haha pk did u see that on the csa site? :D

Yep they the rims i want! Im in the process of saving for them now, mite be a while yet tho!

Have you been down to see Joe at Wheelworx and got a price from him? There not the most expensive wheel out thats for sure! You should do what i should have done, and get 4 rear wheels so theres DISH AS all round, as the fronts still have dish, just not as much!!! With the white, they will look the bomb on your car, but you do know that these wheels are like EVERYWHERE!

Bringing back a recent thread.

Has anyone bought an R33 front bar from Viva Garage? I like the idea of the GTR style for the GTS-t, as my current bar is more 400R (side vents, ugh!).

I would like to know peoples experience with FRONT BARS and their fitments. Looking at the photo's of Flicks car, a 5-10mm gap like between the door and guard is NOT acceptable to me so I want to know if all their stuff fits like this?

Cheers :P

I have the 400R front bar from Viva, mine has been modded so the Vents on the front and the side are not there, so they will match smooth side skirts! BUT in regards to the bar fiting, well mine wasn't the best fitment but it did the job! and now its chipped and cracked so it's not really fitting the best at the moment!

Hope that helps a little!

Well i got of the phone to viva garage today enquiring bout Bn side skirts and rear bar he said theres one in stock. I asked if i could put it up against my car and he said no not unless i buy the kit first. His reason been that if he takes it out the packaging no one would buy it which sounds stupid to me. So my first question is has anyone bought Bn style side skirts and rear bar from viva garage? And how well did they fit? I was pretty dissapointed with the guy on the phone he wasnt very helpfull at all. Also does anyone know anywhere else in adelaide i could get this kit? Does customshine stock these items?

Cheers iLEC

thats strange, when i inquired bout my guards they were really helpfull, were going to let me have a good look at them etc and if i wasnt happy with them, as in if they didnt fit right, he was going to let me exchange them.

I guess everyone has different experiences with them. Ive heard alot of bad things about them, and ive also seen another 32 with the exact same guards and they fitted alot alottt worse than mine. Im pretty happy with mine, the gap is hardly that noticable really, and the fit of the guards is pretty good in general.

U could try custom shine, they could probly get them in for u. I dont know of any other places otherwise..

you will find cheap aero parts are often copies sold as discounted originals. basically hold the part up to light and you should not see light, some lighter areas are ok but nothing to thin. In the end if it takes a weeks labour to correct a ripple skirt how are you saving money??

its funny to see cars covered in cheap kits, looks like aero bars, covered in ripples and full of holes!!

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.

      A bit late but A disk S13P fit over stock R32 GTR brakes, usually A disk front, O disk rear works.

      Or, the height of the release bearing is not correct for your combo. Start with the bleeding and checking the slave moves throughout its range when you press the pedal (2 person required), but it is possible for the height to be internally wrong too (box back off to measure.

      Yes, there's quite a few things that can go wrong during a clutch install. Very unlikely. I have a similar clutch. They (ACS) make good gear. No, it is not normal. It is possible that you just need to bleed the clutch slave. But the new clutch will also have a more aggressive actuation force/pressure, and so your old slave cylinder might be a bit leaky or otherwise compromised, and not up to the extra force required. Or the master cylinder, same.

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?
