Heard about the crash but didn't know who it was, glad to hear your ok Damo as thats the most important thing. Cars can be replaced/fixed and time heals all wounds so chin up and give me a yell if you need a hand bringing the old girl back to life :happy:

Damo, that terrible news ! I hope your doing ok. I didn't hear anything of it until just reading this post.

You can replace / repair the car, but not your life so your so bloody lucky !

You'll have to give me a call once your 100% and let me know what happened.

How bad did she end up ? Please don't post pictures as i'll probably start the tears :happy:

Keep in touch

I'm really sorry to hear about your GTR buts it's good that you're OK. I know what your going through. Try import monster for some of the harder parts. I got alot of parts for my old car through them it takes a while for them to get here though unless you want to pay the extra for air frieght. Hope you get it goin again soon

      Maybe also really stiffly sprung track cars. Get the inside wheel up in a corner and all the fun stops. Also me sometimes (rarely) when I have to stand on the brake to convince the diff to drive the wheel that is still on the ground when I'm trying to diagonally get over severe driveway entrance, etc.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Duncan · Posted

      I feel like I'm missing something. You had an authorised installer come out and install a new alarm. Post install the car doesn't start, and you aren't getting the installer back to fix what they did wrong?

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      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.
