Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

trailer is pretty much finished, took it for a dry run home (at 2am this morning). going to virginia afta lunch today to finish off the ramps, tidy up some of the unpainted welds and to load the car up.

note: anyone using nissan wheels on trailers, the inner lip of the bearing centre opening needs to be ground out, spent 3 hours last friday grinding the lip outta these

a few random photos for yas

last night, final touches

I use this place - http://www.biante.com.au/

But any toy shop or model shop should have some stock of what you are looking for there is a good model shop just off rundle mall that had rare models...

Hobby shop on main north rd? Is it still there?

Funny you mentioned them, I might shoot down to Aussie Dyno now & catch up with John Keen who I haven't seen in years then I was planning to catch up with Steve Cramp from Manta Racing who has some suspension for sale

      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.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
