Well, I looked, I rang, I browsed ...

There are no type M bars available in South Australia ... privately, wrecking or imported. Fail :P

edit - JIS have one three advertised on their site for $350.

unless its sold... i thought they are usually pretty good with keeping their site up to date with stock

Depends on how much Paul hassles Koji to update stuff.

yeah, thats what gave me the idea chad. Plus my chances of finding a stock driver seat in the same trim pattern for the same price as a pair of coupe seats + a bit of metal and time for the fab work, its goin to be reasonably comfy too

Anyone know the rough costs of having a worn gear changed in a manual gearbox?

I haven't done a gearbox in years ... and couldn't be bothered doing it myself anyway :P

ruby this is a breakdown of getting my gearbox rebuilt

synchro ring sets-1,2,3,4

input shaft

3/4 synchro hub

synchro keys, spring and sleeves

input shaft bearing

input seal

3rd gear

plus labour in/out plus gearbox oil

total with gst $3,500

got my coilpacks! yay.

That is bad timing - just today I bit the bullet and decided I will sell all the R34 gear I had accumulated, but not yet fitted to my 34. Including a set of Super Spark coilpacks with 3 spares.

Ah ha! Missed them. Cheers, I'm browsing their site now. Will call tomorrow and pick up. :)

These be suitable for 33 series 2 Andrew ?

Edit: Hey Ruby, pretty sure they have 1 series 1 and three series 2 front facia's in stock. One of the series 2's has the factory lower lip on it too.

I've seen that one at JIS - been there for ages.

Tossing up between these 3 that I can see online:

I like this. Complete and just in need of paint.

I can throw this one on without paint for now, being white.

I like the look of the grey S2 with the lip ... but no lights, and will it fit the S1 model?

Dumb Q: is type M and spec M the same thing?

Its meant to be Type M... Spec M is something relating to one of the R34 models.

Thought so ... the two, one labeled "type m" and the other "spec m" looked identical :)

I'd wanna see the bumpers before deciding. I'm also keen on some Work mesh dish rims. :D

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • 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.
