Picked up my trust 518z that I'm going to fit to the sr which will be fitted to my white cefiro.

yes the sr 20 r32 is being shelved as we really need 4 door cars.

nice how they come all packaged with fittn instructions and all the gaskets and bolts and oil lines required.

also I love the conservative power predictions in the manual

1.0 bar 226kw

1.2 bar 251kw

and a nice fat power curve 220kw @ 4500 rpm 251kw @ 7000 rpm

they quote stock for the sr 168 kw

should be lots and lots of fun :D

good work.. ahhh, sweet that answers the question as to how much the 517z puts out too ;)

I was looking at them from a couple of places in Japan, under $2500 for the full kit and everything you need to bolt it on. Good value.

you'll have some fun with that!

inasnt its not the same size as the 2835 but if flows more its a low mount standard position turbo for the sr 20.

pred you right on there thats what drew me to them and the fact the signal s14 ran a 11.74 with one was also a motivating factor. and the boost comes on so early for a big turbo.

cheers

      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.
