I live in wollongong, so it only takes 45mins to get to justjap :whistling:

I'm sure it would be better getting something shipped nationally than internationally.... In other words, justjap would probably be better than nengun.. also i believe you can get slugged with some taxes having things shipped from japan.

Hey mate, was seeing what GUN_METAL_GTR32 uses his for but for you, have you considered a standard GT-R one, any of them should do quite nicely for your power goals and as they won't be brand spanking new you might save a few dollars :ermm:

hey guys, sorry for digging up this old thread.

I got bosch 040, 3" turbo back, wanna run 10psi on s2 r33; would a r34 side mount be suitable for this or is it better to get a FMIC ? Did some searching & reading and had some conflicting reports

Definitely better to get a front mount. The 34 side mount might just work for light street duties, but if you're out for a decent drive giving it the beans here and there it will heat soak pretty quickly.

My Blitz CS FMIC is still going strong, zero issues.

hey mate, thx for the reply. I read on here the r34 smic's were good for ~200-210rwkw so i thought it would be a cheap alternative to a FMIC since the mods i have wouldnt be near that rwkw figure?

If you ever planning on doing more mods, you end up needing a front mount later so you might as well get it done right first time :)

However, if you can get a sidemount for $50, and install it for free, i guess you could always on-sell it when the time comes to upgrade, and then it hasn't really cost you anything?

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
