.....funny as heck when my mate test drove it.. the looks from people at the lights as it 'lumped' its stupid butt off! He never bought it! But he really thought about it!

wrong....no one but me ever drove that car.

It no longer exists, the engine is now in a commonwhore.

Cheers

WRONG! the car i'm talking about was about 8 years ago! Blue 253 holden, quadrajet, 2.5 inch exhaust and a half cage, and it was all engineered approved. had (if i can remeber right..)a toyota 4 speed behind it! It went very well.. but he just couldn't bring himself to owning a poo coloured datto! I remember it well because he hit me up for a loan to help buy it.. I was all for it.

I never said i was talking about the same car..

not as bad as 180's and silvia's.

i welcome making skylines the new commodore. means more research and development will go into their products. further increasing their market share and as a result... decreasing prices...

=economies of scale :D

doesnt an s15 say silvia on the dash?? even the aus spec ones? Just trying to remember from my bosses car

Yes on the passengers side...

says silvia on the headlights too

And also on the side steps as you enter the car the word "SILVIA" is etched in stainless... :P

The standard gear stick knob also has the silvia's "S" on it...

Who really gives a crap about silvia's anyhow?

speaking of them.. If I owned one, I would put another engine in it! Just to piss ALL those SR freaks off! something like.. umm.. probably a toyota engine!

Of all the car brands that i have seen modified by their owners, the old silvia has to be the most modified, but buy far the poorest!

Really big turbo's that don't make boost until 5500.. or later, those stupid little BOV's that don't flow air (they just make a horrid noise) and exhausts that sound like a bumble bee has farted in a storm water drain.. and then there is the suspension!

When you are finished playing with your toys.. come play with the big boys!

      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.
