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

Have fun getting the holesaw through the inner guard, i gave up with mine and attacked it with a 1/8 drill then belted it out :(

haha. if i get frustrated and give up, i can get a pneumatic drill and a tungsten hole saw at my door within a couple hours for nothin.

ladies and gentlemen, i have two words for you;

IT'S ALIVE!

started the 200 a little over 2 hours ago, tended to any leaks (there was 1), fitted the turbotech mbc (too lazy to wire in the ebc tonight), made sure the cooling system was going as it should, and put the front end back together. gonna have a shower and take it for a spin. :yes:

scratch that. problems already. hit a little over 1bar for a second on a test drive, pulled over straight away and readjusted the controller, problem is, now it isnt boosting over 0.5 bar no matter what i do, and it hits a wall at 5k rpm. :thanks:

      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.
