How goes it everyone, I'll post up a quick intro but it seams(judging by looking through the other posts) that nobody replies in here unless you've got a set of boobs :banana:

Names Benno, from the gold coast QLD, I'm a mechanic, recently sold my pride and joy that i built from scratch. A 1984 corolla with a worked CA18DET, full silvia suspension/brakes etc, it was fun but a handful.

Now looking to sell my daily(starlet) and get a R32 project. So I'm looking for a GTS complete or rolling or a GTS-t rolling shell. I've got this project already planned out, nothing new, :puts on flame suit: a SR into a R32. Now i don't like the SR either(they sound like a wet fart), but I'll be building a motor not relying on a stocker and I'm working on Balance and overall weight(don't say "buy a silvia" i hate silvia's) If i can get a said power output from a lighter motor then why not, personally i like the style of the R32 and the suspension geometry shits on a S platform.

so there it is, love it or hate it, let us know what you think.

Cheers

Benno

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
