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

      You’ll want to have the block drilled and tapped to suit 1/2in head studs and the head for the same. How much power do you intend to make?

      Sorry for resurrecting an oldish thread Not much has happened in the past year since the last update. The car did another 1000 miles or so and failed the MOT for the first time in October (failed on tyres which had been advised for a couple of years) In October the car got put up for sale and was removed in November due to no interest, being so close to christmas it was to be expected. The roads were dry in February so I decided to tax it early and get the new tyres fitted.   Fast forward to April, I got someone in to give the car a good clean after sitting for the winter.                                 The car got re-advertised and today (Saturday 3rd May) the car sold. The new owner is planning a GTR conversion at some point and a respray in the same pearl white. It's bitter sweet, it's a shame to have the car sit there for half the year and then only do 1000 miles. The kids are growing too quick and space in the back is getting limited. It's been a great 6.5 years of ownership

      And if you want more power, more reliably, and cheaper, go get the Aussie RB... The 4L Barra and put that in instead.

      No cats will keep discolouring the rear bar. Sends white paint a weird yellow stain. Cut and polish normally gets it out, but you'll be doing that every fortnight I found.

      Both heads will be equally reliable or unreliable depending on what you do to them.  Stock the RB26 head will flow more. You have access to the stock intake ITB manifold on the RB26 cheaply which flows really well(1000hp+).   Arguably more aftermarket support for RB26, though in Aus we love our RB30 SOHC heads too.    The only downsides to the RB26 head is if you have a VL commodore and want to keep the SOHC look.  Where you may have an issue is drilling out the rb30 block for the bigger head studs but if you are building a big power motor you'd probably put bigger studs on the SOHC head too.  This is just about finding a good machine shop, sometimes easier said than done.  RB30 head worked can make big power just like a Rb26 head, so really it actually more comes down to what your preference is for your car.  People now even making billet versions of both.
