I assume it's an R32GTS, if so, the Group Buy has a list of everything that you need;

i dont think the sway bars will work because the gts has the double wishbone design ?

I wouldn't have upper mounts, tie rods and tie rod ends very high on your list of priorities.

Would also add some upgraded swaybars in there.

strut bars..

HICAS lock bar + removal of HICAS system..

If its a GTS.. I wont really bother too much with Tension Rods, Upper Mount's and Tie Rod & End.. put that money into brakes..

Or 5 stud conversion.. You will see much better lap times if you invest that money into brakes..

NA's have terrible brakes from stock.. a set of GTSt - if not GTR disks and callipars would be a very good idea!

Id say stick with a good set of coilovers (highly recommend HSD's) for the moment and the rest of the money on brakes..

    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
    • Hmm not really, I'd say its race car life or modified car life when you make 3 or 4 times the power Nissan designed the car for lol. 
    • I'll let others with more breakage chime in, but I can't think of anyone who had a problem with the standard centre plate before they had a problem with the standard gears - the plate generally just gets replaced for safety when the gearset is upgraded. As for the gearsets, its not like they are OK at 600Nm and break at 601. Their longevity is a combination of how much torque you are making and how gentle you are on shifts (or not).
