I remember reading somewhere that there was one of the gates belts which was perhaps a bit noisier than nissan oem?

Also, brahs know what the go is with coilovers and rwc? To my understanding most coilovers are illegal (even raised to legal height) because they don't have 2/3 of the travel required or something along those lines? But in reality, if it's the correct height, are they really adamant on this?

Sort of...

There's are some approved coil overs, they need to be able to travel a certain distance in damper or something, they can't be too stiff. And they can't allow the car to go lower than legal limit..

Pedders do Aus legal adjustable coil overs

i bought a gates belt and racepace told me it would be pretty noisy and advised me to stick with a standard belt with HKS cams - might try out the gates though next time as noise wont really bother me that much i guess, just hate in-car squeaks and rattles!

Yup, must have been the Racing belt, then. When I did my major service, I just went with Nissan OEM though :D.

Re: Coilovers, that's pretty much in-line with my understanding, then. However, my question was (even with the new photos etc for RWC) if it's a big issue, provided it's sitting at legal height...

Have the car booked in for alignment etc at Traction tomorrow, but seems a bit of a waste if I'll have to take them out to get RWC anytime soon... that's all...

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
