Guys,

Just ordered some brand spankin new coilovers which should be arriving soon. Just wondering if there is anything that you would recommend that I change at the same time while im playing around there. The car is getting a bit old now (94 R33 GTST) and i know for a fact that the steering rack is leaking, but is there anything like bushes that would be a good idea to change as well while im there? My castor rod bushes look shot, i think ill do them for sure

Cheers,

Damo

just do anything that looks shot.

castor rods already mentioned, maybe rack boots, maybe tie rod ends or tie rods. I'd probably replace the rubber bushes on the end of the swaybar link with polyurethane ones. You can really go overboard if you want and swap just about everything.

I reckon a rear camber kit for sure. they are around $150. definatley cast rod bushes - go to nolathyne. just check your rear sub frame bushes too. a cheap up grade for these if they are stuffed is solid ones - around $100

hope that helps

    • GTSboy, thank you again. i’ve been reading all the other SAU RB25 vacuum line threads and you have the utmost patience for people asking “where do my vacuum lines go”. it’s appreciated. i did also enlist a few other RB guys local to me.  i would like to run 5 to 4. turbo pressure side to wastegate actuator. i would like to run 3 to 1. power steering air valve line to intercooler outlet. (this is how it was previously). i was told 2 is the bleed port for the boost solenoid - which i’m not running - so should be capped.   anyone see any problems with that?    
    • So yes. All of them. Something like 98% of all fuel in the USA has 10% ethanol: https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/ethanol-fuel-basics It's labelled as like, AKI, 87, 91, 93 with an E10 or E5 or E15 label on the pump. At a certain point, it's not just "E10" instead of 91. It is 91, 95, 98, and all of them have 10% Ethanol in them. You can also get E85 and E30 which is why you do see some people rolling around with E30 tunes in them.
    • Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?
    • Should have asked what is the car?
    • I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.
