Hey guys, I know this isn't the WTB section but I've already posted there and thought I might try local in SA too. I'm in pretty desperate need of a front left hand site balljoint+hub assembly for my R33. Just got my tires changed today and found out what was causing my uneven wear. Now with the new tires on I don't want to leave it too long before sorting the problem. I've tried all the spare part places that were open today but no such luck, gonna try the rest on Monday but thought to check if anyone here can help out. As you can't just buy the balljoint new I asked Pedders how much for the whole assembly and they said $2000! :( DEFINITELY not going with that option so if anyone can help out or point me in the right direction, would be well appreciated :P

Cheers

Did it myself, then realised that I needed new bushes on the top of the arm so I just said screw it, took it to Pedders and got them to fit the bushes on both sides plus adjustable camber kit. Plus, since it was only there just over a month ago for a 28 point safety check and they didn't pick this, they chucked in a four wheel alignment for free. Well worth it I say; was chucking it around abit tonight on the way home from the movies and the improvement is definately noticeable :D

      Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Duncan · Posted

      Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
