Mine takes the cake.

Just ask Kye, Rhys and who-ever else has been past my place. It's shocking.

Literally everything scrapes on the under-carridge, no matter how jacked up your car is. I'll park on the top one day and take a pic... half the exhaust will be sitting directly on the concrete. We've tried getting the council to level it out a bit (the hump at the top) but they say it's on our property... and we've been quoted obscene prices to get it leveled out/cut down.

My GTR is stock height and it scrapes pretty hardcore... I'd hate to see it when it gets coil overs and lowered a bit...

my house is fairly new and i managed to find its building proposal on councils website... i found out that proposed driveway was rejected by some traffic advisor dude at council because it was too narrow and steep... building was then approved with condition that developer gets rid of those damn walls near footpath and make it less steep... he didn't :) he literally put walls all the way to the road for some reason...

      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.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
