Hmmmm DECA.... Considering Shockworks Coilovers and Whiteline Bushes before then... Wonder if its possible within a month, working full time?

Have already done the 4 Rear K-Frame and the 4 Diff Bushes with Whiteline goodness... So just Arms and a few other bits and pieces to go?

coilovers arent too hard to fit, but still needs alignment.

doing bushes DIY... yeah have fun with that :P

How do the shockworks coilovers compare the the BC ones?

Richo runs BC coilovers, seems to be good enough for him at the track

Coilovers I've got no troubles fitting...

Bushes, I'm not going to try ghetto remove any bushes that should to be pressed, ever again ;) Mike (Miguelone) and I spent a full afternoon trying to get the suckers out of my K Frame...

I've heard some very good things about them, local support is nice, they're only a few hundred more than BC BR's.

Currently I'm running Bilstein Shocks and Springs, I'm about 3cm too low at the zorst, I'd like something damper and height adjustable which is still silky smooth for the street (which my current setup isn't). Car was imported in 2006 with the Bilsteins on it, so they're getting pretty old I'd say.

Fair enough!

So now that your car is sorted when you coming back to the track?

yeah coilovers would be a pretty good upgrade. picking the right ones for daily use is the tricky part I reckon.

sif coilovers.

i got brand new bilstens and am getting eibach progressive rate springs.

silky smooth for daily duties and not too rolly for corners.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
