Telstra farking wins. And s3 is a great phone. But is till love my blackberry. Hahaha

I was driving from work to springvale. Basically the monash from the tunnel to blackburn road. the whole time from burnley to blackburn. I had my left knee steering the wheel. Noodle box in one hand and chopsticks in the other. Finished it just before exiting fwy. Like a bawse.

Wow so many people are on bc br's. How much did you guise pay for them? And how do they go?

Oh btw. I has 4 discs nao :D. And red calipers. LOL. Red calipers wasn't my choice. Now to find time to put them in.

By the way. What's the deal with ball joints? Am I able to take the ones in my hubs atm and chuck it in the new hubs? Or will I have to go out and buy new ball joints? :/

im curious if i was driving down the rd and someone jumped out at me and i swerved to avoid killing them and rid off my car would he/she be liable or id just have to cop it for being sane?

Youd get the barriers in your ass and you'd enjoy it coz your a top bloke.

Red calipers +10kWasps brah ;)

My bc br's treating me pretty good thus far I think - I still need to figure out my ideal dampening settings (currently may be a bit too bouncy + some pesky speedbumps at uni cause rear to scrape unless I crawl over) and need to get it aligned again, but besides that I can't really complain about anything, so far so good?

That could be your spring rate adjustment

That could be your spring rate adjustment

to fix adjust preload or something? didn't want to mess with preload and stuff too much, looked okay as is when i put them in. but will have a looksee if messing with dampening settings isn't good enough, cheers brah :)

Yeh your need to adjust the spring rate, having loose springs will cause it to bounce around. Dampening is more so the ridgidity of the shock

Looks like your ready to do some track work brah

coming from the guy that likes his bulggagi touched by his asian lover boy and kidnaps little white girls

just pay for a higher excess and get quote online will prob be like 1000

Excess adjustment makes SFA difference to be honest, not worth raising the excess for.

Awaiting a email from Lumleys, which is underwritten by Wesfarmers which is joint company to Coles Myer apparently I can get staff discount, just need to invensgate further.

Let me know how you find the s3 I really want one but can't afford atm

ERs have the external oil res yeah? is that what's hitting? weird I never had any issues with my BC BRs with 18x10 +15s and 265s on my GTR

yeah external res ones man

though the clearance with the resivour is like 5mm now so happy with that

I would say you should be able to, they should only be bolted or clamped to the strut

Seems to be strange if they were welded etc

they have only a tiny space of movement - i thought it would be possible to atleast turn the res around like 90 degrees or something just to make sure its out of the way.. but doesnt seem so :(

Locked away?! That makes me sad :P

On another note, since when GTR's are at least $2k a year to insure? What a complete joke.

lol it will be out much more now!

yeah i pay like 1.8K (1.6K if i pay all at once but i pay monthly) full comp with just car, never had a claim and im 27 so dont have the higher price people under 25 do.. prices are f**ked..

Good to know this thing will be out and about more often now!

Agreed on insurance prices being proper f**ked up, it was cheaper to insure a 33 GTR when I was 22 year old idiot, I'm 25 now and surely the premiums would be lower no?

Worst case, start looking at other cars that doesn't attract higher premium (domestic market or sedan) *shudder*

Lol my premium went from 1370 to 1970 with no claims at all. And also turned 25 in that time. Since its never driven adjusted the excess and I'm back to 1300

what!? really who with? never heard of it going up with any claims..did you modify your policy? add mods?

    • 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.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
