bnr# is trying his best to confuse us. like the good sir ronin has pointed out cusco don't make adjustable front upper arms for 32 GTR, but they may do for 33 GTR. I can't remember off the top of my head (they have a different upright and different upper control arm to 32 GTR). it's beside the point anyway as the original poster is asking about 33 GTR and Rear.

if we are talking rear then you can't go past the cusco ones. top quality, very nice rod ends. good price.

Hi, Can anyone recommend good adjustable upper control arms for the rear of a GTR R33?

Cheers

As most guys know, I am not a big fan of using sphercial bearings in a road car. They are very harsh, add noticeably to the NVH, don't replace the outer, standard, rubber bushes, wear ouit very fast, knock like a bustard and can't be serviced or replaced, you have to buy a whole new arm. In addition, to avoid creating bump steer, you should adjust the effective length of the traction rod at the same time as you adjust the upper control arm. Hence why the Group Buy includes adjustable Whiteline bushes for both.

For guys who do regular track work and want to adjust the camber frequently, the Group Buy now has the option of Noltec bushes. Which allow on car adjustment of rear camber via a bolt and lock nut, similar to the front camber.

Cheers

    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
    • yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
