What tires are you using atm?

2k..

f/r adjustable swaybars - 500

second hand lsd - say 800

aggressive street wheel alignment + corner weighting - $350

Strip the car (start with boot and rear) depending on personal preference/usage - free

Bit of money left over for install help if you cant diy/some replacement bushes.

Depending on how low it is, you might not need adjustable sussy arms etc. The factory stuff gives a small range of adjustment and is generally enough to do an aggressive street setup if the car's not too low (check the bushes condition though).

have just got a bride cuga for driver and r33 gtr passenger seat :)

now getting sway bars and stripping :)

can't find an LSD for under a grand though :(

Just keep an eye out for the LSD, it''ll pop up sooner or later!

Did you get adjustable sway bars ? As because you are stripping the car, it will obviously affect f/r weight balance and also weight/force on each end's tires affecting grip/oversteer/understeer and the adjustable sway bars will come in handy for correcting it your personal preference/driving style along with pressure changes in f/r tires.

Wow that was poorly worded but it's friday night and i can't be arsed to recycle it into something better closedeyes.gif

Nice one on the seats! Luckily for me i have found my stocko 33 seats to be really good for me (probably because i'm sized like a typical japanese man lol).

I like duncan's suggestion too lol.

yea, whiteline adjustables, for the swaybars.

Is the carpet in r32s one piece? I think the wife would appreciate the front for now but I don't want rear passengers.

how much weight does the sound deadening add? I don't wanna work all day for like .75kg lol

you think i should stick to the stock diff atm and buy camber arms/ trailing arms etc

yea thats lucky with your seats...my drivers side was rooted (side bolster as usual) and the passenger had no back panel (some random ripped it off, grrr)

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
