Bump for a great thread!

I just got mine done today and as follows

gts-t

f/r - 245/45/17 ku36

Purpose - touge mainly then street but with compromise for tire wear.

Front:

Castor 7 deg

Toe out 1.4mm total (0.7mm per side)

Camber -1.5 deg per side

37psi cold

Rear:

Toe in 1mm (0.5mm per side)

Camber -1.2 deg per side

35psi cold

HKS springs f/r, bilstein shocks valved +25%, stock sways.

Really like how the car drives. Turns in good, very good mid corner front end grip. Rear end is nice and predictable with lots of feedback.

I have been searching for about an hour but the only info i can find for factory wheel alignment specifications are for R32GTR/R34 Service Manual as per attached image i made, does any one know what the standard wheel alignment specs are for an R34 GTR V-Spec?

Too much negative camber on the rear -1 is plenty

You also have basicly no toe on the rear. Toe it in 1mm each side

Front get a set of adjustable upper arms and set the camber to neg 1.5

Toe it out 1.5-2mm each side on the front, you'll notice the turn in will be alot sharper

What would be the perfect setup in wheel alignment for a R33 GTS-T which is mostly used on street , but has good handling & can stick to the road well when u take it for a nice hard drive in the mountains ? What setup would be good with camber front & rear , Toe in , Castor , ect ? This weekend i'm fitting adjustable upper camber arms front & rear , front adjustable tension rod arms & bar , hardened tie rods with KTS tie rod ends , Adjustable rear tow & traction rods aswell . Help with alignment specs would be much appreciated :) Cheers

any GTR recommendations? recently had one done and the rear end feels super twitchy on sydney roads. looks like a lot of toe in with about -4 camber (camber arms bought already) on the rear and about -2.5 camber and slight toe out on the front. this is from a visual inspection

      Another "where do these lines and plugs go" RB25DET question

      By thatjawncrazy · Posted

      GTSboy, thank you again. i’ve been reading all the other SAU RB25 vacuum line threads and you have the utmost patience for people asking “where do my vacuum lines go”. it’s appreciated. i did also enlist a few other RB guys local to me.  i would like to run 5 to 4. turbo pressure side to wastegate actuator. i would like to run 3 to 1. power steering air valve line to intercooler outlet. (this is how it was previously). i was told 2 is the bleed port for the boost solenoid - which i’m not running - so should be capped.   anyone see any problems with that?

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So yes. All of them. Something like 98% of all fuel in the USA has 10% ethanol: https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/ethanol-fuel-basics It's labelled as like, AKI, 87, 91, 93 with an E10 or E5 or E15 label on the pump. At a certain point, it's not just "E10" instead of 91. It is 91, 95, 98, and all of them have 10% Ethanol in them. You can also get E85 and E30 which is why you do see some people rolling around with E30 tunes in them.

      Blue slip

      By Stringycheese · Posted

      Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?

      Should have asked what is the car?

      Blue slip

      By PranK · Posted

      I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.
