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.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
