Looking at that coupe gave me flash backs of what mine looked like before i spent a zillion on it. You really have to like them in a big way, it's easy to see this one requires a lot spent on it and unfortunately these cars aren't everyones taste so selling later will mean your going to lose money unlike maybe a LJ Torana is possibly an investment. But I do love my JAPORANA as the guys at work call it. It's different and around here quite rear, so it gets plenty of attention especially with the V8 rumble.

That's an old 'Creations' kit; TO4, 32mm Garrett Wastegate and it looks to have a Stromberg rather than SU (mine had a 2" Jag SU on it when I bought the same sort of kit in '97). Laggy as hell on an L24, let me tell you...

:P

      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.
