Hey all,

Just wondering if anyone in Hobart or thereabouts might be able to lend me a set of 4 wheels with road legal tires for a few hours this saturday afternoon so I can get my R32 (5 stud) across the pits - Mine have a bit of camber wear, and being a gts4 I would like to keep them all the same. I have a set of spare wheels I if needed while I borrow yours, and I will pick up and return the wheels with beers of your choice :P If you can help me out I would really appreciate it, shoot me a PM if you can. Thanks everybody!

Ah yeah i have Funz's 17's you can borrow as well Dave :(

dopnt quite think they have legal tred for a pits pass lol. might need them this weekend as i might be selling them :D. ive got 2 stock r33 rims with legal rubber at home and if i ask my friend for my other 2 rims back they easily have legal tred available.**

(messaged my friend to see if i can get them back , will be available to borrow if so, she said she can get her other tyres fixed and get mine back so ill have an update soon , PM me for more info)

All good mate i was only joking about yours.

No worries, how big's your budget ;)

Nice one, thanks guys :) I cant wait to get this car on the road!

Your welcome to grab them anytime mate but be warned they are brand new so i will know if you have any fun :banana:

Thanks Ben - I dont think I will be going too silly, the last thing I want is to draw any attention to myself driving an unregistered car! I will give you a shout as soon as I know my rear hub has its new ball joint pressed in and I will be all set for saturday :(

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
