I started puting the seat mounts in on Saterday. I've cut the standard mounts out, and so far put the front drivers side mount in. used some 3mm plate as a base, and 25x25mm rhs to go between the sill and transmission tunnel. i forgot to take the cam on sat, so i'll try and get some pics today, and put them up.

some pics of new toys

Haltech Platinum Sport 2000, and Racepak IQ3 logger dash. Better value money than a heap of gauges, also neater and easier to mount. Also can kill the engine if oil/pressures drop (right foot dosn't always obay red lights)

Cheap carbon boot, slight damage in the top right made it much cheaper

I got my Navigators seat mount in today. Got it to sit really far back, pitty the exhaust was in the way, so i couldn't get it any lower

Also got a ABS unit out of a VY Commodore.

Very cool Ben, gee wiz your passenger seat is going to be a long way back. I mounted mine on the hump so the passenger sits a little higher than me but i will not have one very often.

What's the idea behind the VY ABS unit?

ABS is very handy for tarmac rallies. especially when your tyres have to last for 5 days. And the standard Nissan unit isn't very good (late 80's tech vs 00's tech). And ABS from a local car is easy/cheap to find from a wrecker, I only paid $110 for the unit.

How do you go wiring it up?

fair enough.. with a cage like that, i hardly think the extra few grams of steel would matter :D

i will be doing the same no doubt... as like you... i have a large sheet of alloy, sikaflex, and no a/c.

    • 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.
