point all four wheels straight ahead and try to take out as much rear camber as possible thats all we did and shock settings on the rear were hard as possible to stop it squatting. front is as it came over from japan

A swaybar can help more evenly plant the rear tyres resulting in a reduction in wheel spin and improved traction. If set up right on a street car they can be of huge benefit.

we remove them and change the camber settings to compensate....result is the same contact patch as before but with reduced weight and improved rear squat. We have one of the best street tyred IRS 60 foots in the country to back my theory up. Its over 1.5 tonne has a little over 400kw and 60's in the high 1.4's.

widebody, i also use HKS Hyperdampers...but not the "drag spec" ones...they take a bit of testing to get them right but once you do the car hooks up well.

just a thought but in the one of chance of the car breaking something, driving through oil etc and the car gets sideways it will be harder to control as it will body roll like a champion. after seeing a few guys cars crash at the track i have seen a lot of guys put them back on. for the sake of 5 kilos or so, i will just go on a diet.

Some of the fastest street car racers in the world run 6 second quarter miles at over 200mph in purpose built race cars and still use swaybars. They 60 in the low to mid 1.0's and get out of shape less often.

yeah. id go .5mm toe in fromt and rear. just to help with stability. but i havent done propper bump steer testing on the rear yet.

im about to make an adjustable bump steer hicas lock bar with a height adjustment (bump steer corection)

    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
    • One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
    • I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.  
    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
