I took the caster rods out last night, they are rooted. The steel sleave in the drivers side bush just falls out, and the passengers side has a 2mm gap all the way round. We thought the bushes were stuffed, but didn't realise how bad they were.

How will you adjust if you use the genuine ones mate?

Not adjust them, I think them not moving is better than being able to adjust them. When Berry was down a few years ago, he was saying how much better new genunine bushes are then whiteline etc

Most of the stuff is bolted back up to it now, and the block in nice and silver.

Aim is to have it ready for the Legerwood Lane hillclimb on the 29th.

I've blocked one of the oil galleries, and fitted a 1.3mm restrictor to the other one (as per sydney kids guide). Not running a external return from the head at this stage, as most poeple that have done it found it doesn't drain very well. I have also put rb26 cam covers on to help the oil/air separation.

How easy does it stretch? ie does it go on and off easy, so you can work on the car?

    • 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.
