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:

      Slight brake pedal stutter after new pads

      Just to be clear, there were no lights or codes when the hiccups were occurring. Also nothing noticeable in the cars' braking. It brakes fine and the dash is clear. I only made the connection when it did throw a code and suddenly, despite the lights, it felt great again.

      Yeah they are sliders and this was in my head before I worked out it was the speed sensor.

      Slight brake pedal stutter after new pads

      By PranK · Posted

      Ok so we have a smoking gun.  A few weeks ago I had to replace a speed sensor that I'd fit incorrectly. I replaced the sensor and everything was fine with no lights or codes thrown any longer.  When I was doing some more bedding in yesterday I got ABS and traction control lights again and, considering when this happens those things are disabled, the pedal went back to normal with smooth braking and no hiccups.  The codes thrown are for the same speed sensor that I replaced. When I looked at the sensor I took out it looks like the tip of the sensor is damaged. So whatever happened to it, perhaps it has damaged the magnetic ring on the bearing (that I only replaced the other week). I'll get my boroscope in the hole where the sensor goes and see if there is any damage in there. Hopefully just the tip of the sensor is in there and the bearing is fine. 🤞🏻  It's worth noting also that the pedal hiccup happens more often and for longer periods now and totally goes away when the codes are thrown again which happens usually after 5 or so minutes of driving. Love all your help here as usual guys, thanks!

      Could you put a real seat and harness in instead of what looks like leaving your passenger balancing on a milk crate
