need an answer to this quick:

Took my car to Beaurepairs to get my front wheels balanced! they finished and when I went out the guy tells me that one of my $250 kics nuts has been threaded and same as the stud on the spacer. Is there anything I can do? He told me they were hard to get off so he had to get them off by hand and it was f**ked already....

do NOT accept this.

look for signs of scratching on the nuts and see if they used the gun and then call head office and complain

tell them you EXPLICITLY directed them not to use a rattle the gun and they did due to nothing but laziness.

you want a new set of kics nuts or the $350 (retail) to replace them. also a new stud or spacershould be paid for

just go HARD

annoying knocking noise coming from one of the rear coilovers what does that mean? no leaks as far as i can see...

chek your bushes? Mine made knocking noises from the front due to worn rosejointed bushes

Give the tops and crack with a spanner.

Do you have a rear strut bar? That could have come loose.

Wheel nuts..

Wheel nuts..

you mean tighten the tops? they are..

no rear strut bar

wheel nuts are fine

old coilovers were a bit noisy but that was coz i had removed the helper springs and compressed the springs. these HKS ones are louder

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Being a manual, we very quickly ordered new R34 gearbox (From Nissan) and remaining parts from Kudos motorsports. Would highly recommend the team there. Ultra helpful and quick to share advice and upgrades. We are in the middle of taking the Auto out (Genuine 94,000/kms) and putting the Manual in this weekend. Part 2 of the build will include likely a Plazaman Intercooler and Plenium, Hks Exhaust with Tomei Dump (ordered).
