The fact he had an airbag wheel as standard and he removed it is reason enough

bingo.

however, im tempted to the same, just so i can solid mount mt seat to the floor and drop myself 2 or 3 inches, and having a removable wheel is really the only way to do that and still be able to get in and out.

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

writeoff can attest that when i was going to moonta last year, we'd hit a dip and my entire exhaust would bottom out on the tarmac and shoot a tonne of sparks, so much so that it ripped apart one of the welds on my muffler

True but the exhaust system wasn't fitted correctly back then and your car was fully loaded with food, drinks, fishing equipment and ~260kgs of man-flesh.

Speed humps just need to be taken slowly and at an angle. Same with driveways.

Personally I think your Bilsteins are fine and you could save your $ but I haven't driven the car in a long time and never did as a daily.

Non Airbag wheel. Nardi wheel. He said if i had a momo or Isotta i would be fine, even tho they have no air bag :ermm:

Dion, will u be down towards the city any day soon? would be great if i could borrow the light.

Should only take a couple of nights after work to finish it all.

Thanks.

i suspect in the 2 years that theyve worn - the exhaust was fitted properly - this was back when I still had the 3.5" kakimoto that was on it when i bought it off you. because of that, i switched to a twin pipe junbl sidebyside cannon setup, which wasnt fitting correctly on the trip to another place, but I dont think you were there for that - inspite of the junbl's not being mounted correctly, they still scraped less than that kakimoto (the muffler was massive)... and even tho theyre now mounted correctly, I still get scrapage around the side street speed humps... thats even slowing down to 10kph...

ill see what waynes teins are like and if I have to, start saving up for nismos that scandy suggested ... however I suspect because the suspension is nismo, it'll cost me 2 kidneys to afford..

Shit. I have a nardi too. But then again R32 GTRs never had air bags... maybe that means I'd get away with it

Nope, don't think Nardi's have ADR approval

bingo. even if your car didnt have an airbag wheel as standard, the only aftermarkets wheels you can legally fit are from momo and isotta because theyre the only brands that have got adr approval.

My R32 has stuff about SRS Airbag written all over the sunvisor, I'm waiting for the day a cop gives me a hard time about removing an airbag wheel.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By JC71 · Posted

      the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.

      If there's oil in with the clutch, I hope it finds its way out even if that hole has a cover/grommet 😛 I don't want oil near my cars clutch! 😛 Interested to hear the answer about covering it, I'm assuming a bung for a gearbox from another car that has a grommet to suit.
