Hi As some of you will be aware from my last post im building a R30 FJ20 turbo Coupe race car

is there a rule of thumb with the setup of these for track use ie soft rear hard front etc or is it completely driver related ie what i prefer?

i mean does anyone no what kind of stiffness settings they used in the ATCC? we are in the process of doing the suspension at present and i guess im looking for a direction tho head in so im buying the parts to make the right effect if that makes sence?

Also what bluebird is it that the cross members, lower control arms and rack and pinon steering (non power assit) that will bolt strait into an R30? and can i still put S13 hubs etc on the bluebird lower control arms?

Cheers in advance

Marc

also if any one has an FJ20 engine mounts could you PM me?

I'd be keen to know the answer to your question too

I'm in the process of building my car for classic rallies.

So far I've installed koni shockies to get it licensed and have selby front and rear swaybars to fit.

Not sure what springs to fit plus need to get adjustible camber tops

I assume you're after the factory 'filled' mounts?

If so, I suggest you upgrade to RB mounts - all that's required is an adapter plate. I changed mine over with a scissor jack & removal of the strut brace only.

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG is has not responded to my emails so far after purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
