all these suspension arms are doing my head in...

so in the rear ill put in an adjustable camber arm and an adjustable traction rod. cant fit a castor rod.

but the front, can get castor arms, adjustable tension rods OR adjustable lower control arms (which includes a tension rod but doesnt look like the other tension rod in the pic).

Well yeah, the rear end doesn't have nor need castor.

i thought so too, but you can buy them for Z33 ??

that frustration when you spend a lot of time researching and arranging an informative post, go to post it, fails, press back, Ctrl+C.... 2mins later Ctrl+C something else and lose all the previous info.

I know dem feels... I just love watermelon so much...

My GTS-T is the best daily I've had. Occasionally wish it was more comfortable, but you can't have everything and the suspension/diff setup makes it such a confident and capable car to move around in - I feel safer driving it than brand new Commodores.

What's wrong with the BMW? Thought it was quite a sporty nimble car which would replace any skyline feels?

It's a great car and on paper it's the logical step up from a gts-t, but it just doesn't excite me a whole lot

I suspect with a few mods I'd come around, and the lack of police attention is refreshing, but Birds posting up links like that gets me weak in the knees. Could be the still painful theft f**king with my better judgment

Everyone who sells or loses their 33 misses it and that's all the proof I need that keeping is a good idea. That and my drives home from work are always over 9000

The fun factor that can't be bought in a new car - it's the character of a cheap and over-engineered powerhouse coupe from the 90s, back when cars weren't all about emissions, people gave no fks for economy, and we didn't try to stuff infinite amounts of de-skilling electronics into a car. Suspect it also has something to do with giving stick to a car worth less than 10k, so you don't care as much about breaking it...even though you never do, because 33 GTS-Ts are bulletproof*

*poles and thieves exempt

Y u do dis to me Birds :(

f**k I want it

Come on brah, that shit is chump change to your VWLBC status these days...whack third party fire and theft on it and it'll make you appreciate the Beamer more as a comfortable daily.

On a side note, I never appreciated my car more than when I had Alvin's auto as a daily driver. Daily and weekender is the way to go. You try to combine both and you're taking your compromise work chariot out for weekends = not the same.

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
