R35 GTR seats fitted! Sitting much lower than my factory seats! Need to raise the passenger seat a touch. Loving how factory they look.

Boost controller/emanage in and tuned. Having the same issue as lillcrash. Spiking at 18psi and dropping to 14psi. Need a tougher spring. Car drives much much better though. Less lag, much more mid and a bit more up top.

yeah, horrible boost drop off there...try and get that fixed before being too concerned.

I'd start by running the car again with no exhaust, and see what the result is. Also, have a look at the intake under the bonnet when it is at full boost for anything sucking shut, stock rubber parts in particular

Finished putting my freshly painted d pillar panels and mirrors on, removed the factory rust from behind the mirrors. More rust than I expected but minor compared to some I've seen

If the exhaust Is the restriction it will always be there. It's too loud without an exhaust. Mayb the k&n is too restrctive

Took mine for a burn up the old pacific hwy today with a mate in a 180SX.

Glad I moved the fnt sway bar to the maximum slot, much better handling. Was fun driving a SR20 for a bit (would make great track/weekend hack), but swapping cars, I defiantly saw 15 years of improvements/refinements/abuse

Bought a few car detailing things and ordered a transcooler too!

Winning!

Love the fact that now you are only apportioning "Awesome" to worthy cars/owners...happy.gif

Edit - PWR 280x150 just getting it ordered from repco... they can order in any PWR stuff. Should be good enough, plus I don't fleabay.

If he keeps buying all the 'awesome' before anyone else gets it, then he can be the gatekeeper! :worship:

Nice one on the trans cooler. Didn't think of that, was going to order B&M online. I'll go see them tomorrow. Does yours have a thermostat?

Lol...

It doesn't have a internal thermostat- I'll be getting one off Jetwreck that goes in line and does the job. PM him if interested...

maybe ill ebay it. not sure yet!

is it just me or after the shift kit install, the transmission appears to 'slip' less even on take off? im guessing this may assist with fuel economy

That cooler is plenty big enough, I like the look of those little thermostats; full flow in bypass.

I'm a little dubious about the way the b&m coolers use oil viscosity as a measure of temp for the bypass.

      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.
