hey eug, just had a look at the design of those headers, they look mad as nice flow and high quality but i had one issue with them. The O2 sensor looks to me like it only reads from 2 of the outlets which would give it false readings and be a killer on your fuel and mabye rob some power off, it would be best for the sensor to mount in the collector just before the cat or to run muitiple sensors to get a correct reading, im not sure how much this affects the skylines, i just did a mates WRX turbo back exhaust and the O2 sensor mounted in a really crummy spot and his fuel consumption went down to like 280 kms so we had to move it and extend a few wires.

I know skylines arnt this tempremental with the O2 sensors but it might be something to look into if there is a big reported loss in fuel consumption, also in a high preformance application with tunning an after market ecu you wideband sensor probably wouldnt be as affective either

i had a look at that as well. you are correct, that is the best 'bolt out - bolt in' compromise method that they can fabricate.

ideally the gases in each pipe should be equal, it is on my to do list to suss that out. i run an SAFC2 with no dramas in fuel consumption.

yeh, i didnt think that it would have to much of an affect cause my mate shuan got some for his 32 on your first group buy and didnt mention an issue to me, just thought i'd mention it, wouldnt be to hard to re-fabricate a new mounting position, if anyone thinkin of doing it would be nice to see some before and after see if it makes any difference anywhere

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      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.
