Hey guys, went to a shop today, and was not 100% convinced with the advice I was given for the twin cam conversion.

Was wondering if any of you could recommend a shop who have specialised or built these motors before.

I am in Melbourne.

Thanks.

haha trent you are unworthy ;)

HAHA i had to just quickly check this thread :P make sure it wasn't a clown who'd been in contact with us.

I had some joker named Alistair ring and ask for a build quote on a rb30det build, i quoted 6-8k for us to do it our way, he said "jam it up your ass your way off the mark" Cat replied we don't build slapper's and i will only build rb30det's to Trent's specs (dont want any comebacks, and wont assemble other peoples work) but apparently this just aggravated him more and we are now dumb KENTS and apparently are going to have a shit life.... some people just don't get it :D

Looks like we dodged a tosser :/ Had us pissing our selves for ages.

6-8k is a great price... he obviously had no idea... I think HE should jam it up his arse

some people have NFI what its like to run a workshop... a lot more difficult than people think... its hard to run a small business full stop, let alone one where even the simplest of jobs can get really complicated

      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.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
