Them's fighting words!

Maybe you're right though, with those heavy cast D1Rs and all

GTS-T will hit the track before the GTR does

And if it's slow it'll be the driver, thing is reasonably well set up for a daily

would like to come to sandown, but got shit on :(

gloria off to Centreline Suspension for JDM treatment. i was surprised chris knew what was going on before i had even said anything "so we're going to need a lot of negative camber, and you dont mind if it exceeds 100mm ride height?"

take a lot to get a gts-t around a track quick,and if it a good daily then it's not there...just ask Simon.

dialing out the understeer of such a heavy motor at speed is very hard.

It's a manageable daily. There are much more friendly cars going about on the street, but people are surprised when they drive it how palatable it is for the power output and how quick it can be putted around mountain roads. I modified it with the intention to make it capable and retain some creature comfort - expensive process and ultimately a compromise for the street is usually a compromise at the track, yes, but even things like 0 camber for a street setup, tyre and brake pad choice...things I can easily change before a track day...make it a better daily driver.

Adjustable everywhere and poly bushes throughout, the KAAZ 1.5 way is wonderfully predictable and helps her to be tail happy when you want it to be, really helps with turn in at moderate to higher speeds and the opposite at lower. Granted I'm not doing 160km/h corners on the street, but it'll be interesting to see how the car goes nonetheless. I think the suspension would be the thing to hold it back given the struts sound a bit shot after years of Toorak Rd. If nothing else I still have a decent whack of power to make use of our long straights. Could always give a better driver a chance in it and see what they think.

    • 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.
    • 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.
