I've never head of one, obviosuly guys like hypertune etc would have plenty lying around. whether or not they want to sell you one could be a different matter though. still it shouldn't be too hard. get intake gasket, give to machine shop. hand over mucho dinero, stand back and bob's your uncle. :down:

Just get a gasket to someone that knows how to drive autocad. I'd offer to do it for you but dont have any intake gaskets lying around.

If you can scan a gasket in a photocopier that does scan to PDF or TIFF (even if it wont fit on one scan) pm me the pics and i'll give it a go. Put a ruler on the scanner bed too so I can use it for scale next to the gasket.

scan the actual plenum - not the gasket. they bend and distort a bit once tempered with.

Aint that the truth. The factory gasket is pretty weak alright. I went with a metal gasket on my new engine as the factory one arrive pre-broken.

d'oh! I'm 90% sure i have that one too, but probably the weak factory ones. probably just as easy to order one I guess, but if you need let me know and I'll check, I have a whole bunch of nissan and tomei head gaskets around (like throttle/exhaust/intake etc).

      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.

      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.
