Pretty sure my front left ball joint is buggered. Going to get it fixed when my new Jenesis coilovers go in. Does anyone know where to buy the non genuine front lower control arms from, or just a part # would be great.

Thanks,

J, just walk into any reputable parts store up there like Auto One, or Auto Pro, or maybe Repco and tell them you want the Taiwanese R30 copy lower control arm and it should cost you about $70.00 each, give or take.

You could call

Mekong Auto Spares

42 Canley Vale Rd, CANLEY VALE, NSW

phone: (02) 97240691

And I'm sure they will help you out and post them to you if you cant get them locally, or worst case scenario, drop me a line and I'll buy them & ship them to you.

Cheers, D

Oh and loctite the bolts, On a few R30's I have found the nuts were loose, one was missing!

What a croc of shit, Poly bushes are a pain in the ass unless you like pulling your suspension apart every couple of months.

J just stay with the lca's as they come.

Yes. Recently my manual got the rattles and was loose nuts, R30 not mine, and a bolt missing.Didn't loctite but will go do that now.

    • Maybe also really stiffly sprung track cars. Get the inside wheel up in a corner and all the fun stops. Also me sometimes (rarely) when I have to stand on the brake to convince the diff to drive the wheel that is still on the ground when I'm trying to diagonally get over severe driveway entrance, etc.
    • I feel like I'm missing something. You had an authorised installer come out and install a new alarm. Post install the car doesn't start, and you aren't getting the installer back to fix what they did wrong?
    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • 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.
