win, wonder if its static or bagged. extra points of its static dropped.

as for the practicality thing... meh, im running pretty low with a reasonably aggressive (*waits for jarrad*) wheel and tyre combo, and the only place ive ever had trouble with rubbing on the guards (im not counting liners, theyre retarded) has been turn 1 at mallala, over 100km/h and tipping into a long right without brakes puts a lot of weight into the front left corner, solution, bought it into the sheds, hammered the tabs on the guards down, went back out and it wasnt as much of a problem. skinnier tyre would fix it completely.

... could use some rca's though, then itd be spot on.

yeah moar camber yo

Cheers Chad, tried them already, but no answer. Obviously on Chrissy holidays

Dave, are they Starcorp Impuls you're lusting after? :)

They're Work Equips.

They are alot more expensive than what you bought though Jarrad, so personally I'd be happy with what you got.

I wrote a little poem...

spare time + beers =

"Twas the night before Christmas, and all was so quiet,

The hills were so silent, not a reindeer in sight,

Till along came a skyline and made shit-loads of noise,

So much so, Santa dropped all his toys.

Children in bed, snuggled, warm and unheard,

Till the skyline popped flames down-shifting to third.

While the fat man struggled to pick up his gifts,

The GTR lost traction changing to 5th!"

haha.. thats a good one.

cmon theres a difference between practical and pussy

like people running low low suspensions that cant even handle twisties because "oh it makes my wheels rub on the guards"

maybe think of running your car half a bees dick higher and it'll be able to >do what the car was designed to do<

autosalon spec suspension = fail. twisties + cruise/daily spec suspension = win. especially in south australia, where roads are designed by orks.

here is a prime example of choosing form over function

scandy will love it tho, epic static drop

That is just retarded. Whilst some may think it looks good that garage lip was barely an inch high. We have manhole covers higher than that here. Hell even seagull droppings are higher than that!

IMO when looks>function to the point where it is inoperable = MASSIVE wank factor. A car that can't be driven is a total waste.

    • Hi all, I’ve just finished fitting the timing belt on my RB25, following the standard procedure: rotate the crank twice, release the tensioner, then tighten it down. The belt feels tight, and you can see that clearly in the picture below I’ve heard some people say it’s actually better for the belt to be slightly loose rather than too tight, as excessive tension can lead to snapping. So that’s in the back of my mind. What I’m seeing is this:  • At idle, the belt looks fine.  • But when cranking and especially when revving (around 3–4,000 RPM), there’s a momentary flap/flex or flicker in the belt, which I’ve tried to capture in the video. So my question is — based on what you see, is this slight belt movement something you’d consider normal, or am I just being OCD? Could this amount of movement cause sync issues? Or is it just a harmless bit of flex under load?   from what I know belt flap and flex is expected when crank spins up and pull cam with it Would appreciate any thoughts or similar experiences.     IMG_7656.mov IMG_7657.mov
    • I've replaced the front brakes of my NA to 324 brembos and 350z calipers: i'm going for 225/40-18 up front and 245/35-18 in the back. I have Rays 7.5*19 ET35(225/35) in the front with 5mm spacers otherwise the calipers "lock up/ won't rotate". When i use the calculator i come up with 8*18 ET30 for 225/40...... but not sure i get problems with the calipers. Anyone riding around with 18 inch. that can confirm "that it'll fit"? In the back it's 7.5*9 ET30 (245/30) with the 5mm spacers, but there is no problem with the standard small brakes, so i want to take 8.5*18 ET25 (245/35).
    • Lol.. but then.. always come back to a JDM..
    • Glad to hear. If possible, get your tuner to check air's to make sure everything is still where it should be.
    • The problem with FB/Insta/Reddit etc comments relating to cars is simple. You get to ask a question once, and get one round of replies. For things that can actually be answered in a few lines of text, once, it's fine. After 6 hours, your original question is lost to the void. There are no follow ups, additional questions, anything. No project car is ever such a simple list of questions to ask. You need discussion.
