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

The end of the cricket was bloody awesome - apart from the fact that we lost.

Very exciting game though - never thought we would post such a low total either :sick:

Not liking the cricket is unAustralian and should be against the law. Fair enough test cricket can be a bit slow at times (that what all the beer drinking is for), but the one dayers are all action.

Fixed :sick:

Cruise was good. Lost the main pack, 'borrowed' Luke ENR-034s map then we went for a nice drive through the hills then I went home. I absolutely love having a stock car, pulled into the meet point car park, looked at the multiple cops at every exit and just laughed :(

they feel good?

So far so good, i haven't had a chance to really test them out but atm its staying very flat through corners and im getting a bit more feedback all round.

what sort of settings can you play with?

Height only, everything else is preset. as far as settings go i cant find any information on these coilovers as they were only ever sold in japan and in limited amounts too apparently... majority sold had spring ratings at 9kg front 7kg back that's about all i know.

Other noticeable feature is a double spring setup, i haven't seen anything like it before. Should have grabbed a few pics before i put them in but heres one I found on the net for an r32 GTR

helper springs. pretty common. they compress completely flat when the car is on the ground and keep the main spring captive when it decompresses.

i work at a tire store.

yes you do need a wheel alignment your toe, caster and camber need to be adjusted.

not that expensive, and can save your tires.

i disagree if you setup up your ride height to a similar to factory height you wouldn't need and alignment if you say take an inch or 2 out you probably might

cricket and paint are 2 of my favourite things... =P

honestly cricket wont hold my attention for long, but the end of the one dayer was right down to the wire.

certainly much better than tennis

you not ment to sniff it :sick:

      I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?

      So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good

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

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

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

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
