Some of the smaller hoses are different and you can't use them.

Mark at MRC is trying to get a full set made up through the manufacturers, and just jap is still getting r32 hoses organised too.

Cheers.

probably all made in china like everything else :P

i've seen full kits for 32 gtr before. it may have been on an american website tho.

this reminds me i also need to buy some. but not too sure what to buy since i have a r34 motor in my 32..

Well a mechanic I know thinks he can order me a set. I can't remember what brand he said they'd be but I will keep you posted on it when I find them. I believe that SFS do a kit for the R32 also.

I just read this.... "The RB26DETT is the all time greatest performance engine to date and its amazing performance potential is extracted with the use of the TOMEI RB28 Kit."

Ordered all my parts on Friday, fun times ahead!! Awesomest Christmas present ever this year!!!

Well.... I dropped it off to Autotech on Friday.

Engine comes out this week then gets sent to Pro Engines (Please I know there's good and bad stories about Pro Engines enough with the PMs) then on the 3rd it goes on a truck and goes to Capital Collision for the respray. Provided I can get some stocky wheels or something for a week or two while it's at Capital Collision the wheels will come off and go to Wicked Wheels for all the old gutter rash from it's Japan days to be repaired.

All parts are in cept for some hoses, coilpack loom and some dump pipes. Just need to choose the exact final paint colour.

But all the good stuff is now happening! I will post some pics up as we go along :D

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
