Recommended Posts

Have bought R32 GTS-t and it has low firm ride and I need to swap the lowered springs for the standard items (good condition please) Dont have pictures of them of course they are still in the car, would have to arrange a day to swap them both over, but this is a great oppourtunity for someone who wants a much lower and firmer ride on the 32 gts for free!!! I am in western suburbs of brisbane and can help with all the work with a full workshop at my place.

I have also a Type R steering wheel and boss kit to swap for the original wheel. The indicator self cancel doesnt work but it looks very easy to fix it, with 4 small steel tabs to be welded on the inside of the boss kit to connect with the standard cars parts in the column to activate the cancel (this problem will cause a failure on your roadworthy if its asked for)

You can come and swap this steering wheel today for free! Hurry im only able to do this today. (sunday) BRISBANE

I will be interstate for this week and back on saterday. 0427117725

got the springs out. Think the shocks arent quite up to scratch so i might replace them. So only intersted in swapping springs now.

They just appear to be shorter thicker versions of stock springs. So does anyone want to swap them for standard ones?

I want to get this happening pretty quickly, so ring me on 0427117725 we can swap them straight away. Cheers.

oh and will someone please swap my steering wheel for a stock one? even if you can sell me a stock one ill consider it!

Edited by stimps

they are quite low, makes my car look pretty nice but like i said beffore, i gotta have a soft ride for my back injury, anyway yeah im still keen as and i want a steering wheel to you can have the type R wheel i have which is nice, but i still want the stock one.

only catch is, you can only come and swap these (or ill come to you) tomorrow!! (thursday) as i have that day off...then im away again for a week!!!

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
