After getting my tax return, I am either thinking of saving it for my trip to Japan next year, or to put it towards a 52mm Alloy Radiator and a Oil Cooler and Relocation Kit. What would people suggest I do? If I go with the "Upgrades" I am thinking an ISC 52mm Radiator, but not too sure on a good Oil Cooler & Relocation Kit, don't want to spend much more then $350 on the Oil Kit.

abe, youll spend close to half that on a decent oil cooler core by itself. mine was $180 (discounted cause i bought fittings, lines and blocks at the same time) from memory. and oil cooler kits arent something youd wanna cheap out on anyways.

My tax return is going towards a TIG welder. :domokun:

My oil cooler ended up costing around the $500 but the time i bought all the fittings and hose. The cooler was only $130 and the remote brackets i made on the CNC, so that gives you and indication.

On Flea-Bay, you can get kits for about the $350 mark, how good they are, I am not sure, but I am willing to spend a bit more if I am going to gain something out of it, either being Performance, Reliability, or Quality.

These 2 things are very important, dont skimp just to save a few dollars. Speak to Todd at Outlaw in the city, he will sort you out with a very good quality kit like this one.

well the 90deg joiners are $50 each, hose is $20 a metre, straight joins are $25 each, core i got from justjap for $120ish, then the plates are around $60 each.

i had a cheap one, snapped fittings and was just shit..

so i paid 300 for the cheap one then another 400-500 for the outlaw one..

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      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.
