Sooo, I've done several Group Buys for Sway Bars now, and they've all gone very well, but I haven't really catered for you guys :blush:

Are any of you C34 drivers after Sway Bars or Whiteline alignment parts?

Feel free to post in this thread or send me a PM; I'm happy to help.

Cheers, Dale.

I'm not really clued up as to the differences in the subframes among the different models, so I'll have to defer to the more experienced guys on that. I'm going to have to pay more attention.:blush:

If we can ascertain what subframe it is; I'm sure we can find a bar to suit.:thumbsup:

my mate bought a 33 that was originally a gts (non turbo but converted in japland with turbo everything except rear way bar) all the mounting points were there under the car and on the lower suspension arms so we bolted a whiteline bar in there

Check out the Cusco ones while you're at it - may or may not be more expensive.

Had a quick look at their website - bars are about AU$350 but they don't seem to list Stagea ones so onoly the Sklyline ones known to fit would be of interest. Probably Aussie made ones would be a better bet.

$350? I'll be able to smoke that pricethumbsup.gif Should be around $230-$240ish.

^^ agreed.

can also use R33 GTR swaybar on front

Thanks for the tip; I'll get some prices together.

Cheers, Dale.

I'd be keen for front and rear AWD swaybars, anyone got recommendations for which thickness to go for on the rear one?

I would tend toward the 24mm due to the extra weight in the rear (a lot of glass & steel high up in the body) and this will also tend to reduce understeer.

I'm not really familiar with the handling bias of the C34 but I would imagine it is understeer biased.

Feel free to correct me.

Good prices!

Sway bars are the best bang for buck investment in handling. Worthwhile for a stock or modified Stagea. Improves cornering no end and there in NO DOWNSIDE - no harsh ride or other problems.

I have the 24mm solid rear which is a big upgrade on the stock but would not suggest a smaller one.

For the front the SK kit had 24mm made to special order but the 22mm should be ok as there is a tendency to understeer.

NB I painted mine black as even though they are an upgrade with no implications for reduced safety (the opposite in fact) they are considered a "modification" that might incur unwanted attention.

Cheers mate; I aim to please!

Best description of the benefit of fitting Sway Bars :thumbsup:

Mine are also powdercoated Black; stealth FTW!

Does powdercoating void warranty? I've been enquiring about powdercoating rims and one dude said that it would compromise its structural integrity..

i'm pretty sure powder coating ovens wouldn't get anywhere near hot enough to affect the heat treatment of the metal used.

    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
