always come armed with part numbers when you goto autobarn.. that's what i've learnt anyway.

and if you've got an 11/98 onwards r34... ask em what oil filter you need.. they'll almost always try to sell you a Z145a, and won't believe you that you need a filter from a nissan micra (z442).. i've had that conversation about three times with them now.

If you are after suspension for a skyline its hard to go past the Group buy set up bt Sydneykid.

Whiteline suspension components and Bilstein shock absorbers

15% discount off recommended retail and free freight if the individual order is over $500. Plus if you spend $1,000 or more you get an additional 5% discount.

EDIT: this link is for the Gts-t - are the 32 and 33 GTR's the same suspension?

It would be worth PMing Sydneykid for a suspension setup (if there isnt one already) as you will get good advice from someone with lots of experience both on the road and on the track.

It's not suspension but my mate bought some speakers from autobahn for his 04 WRX and he told the chick what speakers he needed but she assured him that he needed different ones. They were top of the line Alpine's i think and when he got em home, guess what, they didn't fit! He took em back and explained that she was wrong and stuff and then she was like "Oh, you meant for a 04 WRX, I thought you said a 98 WRX". THICK AS! The ones he needed were a different price and he refused to pay that price because she stuffed up, the ones he needed weren't on special like the other ones. She was like but I'll get in trouble with my manager and my mate was like well you should have done your job right the first time and we wouldn't have had this problem, DUH! So, he ended up getting top of the range Alpine speakers that were meant to be close to $300 for under $100, haha suckers! Good luck with your suspension though mate, hopefully you know not to use them next time.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
