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

Contact Smooth Garage and speak to Niko, tell him Kye sent you to him.

They would have HEAPS of CA parts laying around. Niko just finished ripping out his old CA so you might be in luck.

yeah Chris cant answer that one i would depend on the assessor on the day and all sorts of contributing factors

i was making a point that if they deem that mod to of caused the accident its highly likely they will void your insurance

Thats a genuine possibility, but generally if you have your modifications performed by an accredited mechanical workshop (and have reciepts to prove it) then you're fine.

If you've done something like welded a diff or chopped springs etc, then its very possible that they'd use those as an excuse to at least reduce the payment

Best to call the insurer in either case and see what they will and wont insure... and if they do, get it listed. Its worth paying the extra $20-50 per year if it keeps you completely covered.

anyone got a plate for a stock bov wanna have some mad flutter styles yo before I leave adelaide :blush:

all you need is a coke can mate

not hard at all and i think that there is a DIY thread somewhere

goodluck and it seriously takes 5 mins if that

unbolt the bov, cut a coke can and lay it flat, so you have a sheet of metal. then trace the bov on the coke can, and the bolt holes. cut out the holes for the bolts and put the can sheet in between the bov and the flange.....and bolt it all back up nice and tight.....presto u got flutters

      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.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
