Sorry to hear about the prang Joel :mad: You should be able to get all the parts you need to do a full repair, without it costing too much. It may take a little while, but then so do smash repairers.

I always make a habit of getting NCB protection, you just never know.

My previous car was a VS 5ltr manual. It had ABS.

When I first jumped in to the Skyline that was one thing I missed.

Any Idea whats involved in slapping a ABS in to my car?

The VS used to have the wheel speed sensors at the just off the IRS diff (looked like a large set of gears that had an optical looking sensor).

So I would assume if the Skylines are similiar I would need to use an ABS diff or just the (whats the word for them? mental blank) The rods that go to the wheels that provide the drive.

Not depressed at all though.

Gives me a good excuse to finally get the left guard/part of the roof fixed from a bodgy previous repair. + a few other things that were bugging me.

nar cars not fixed yet..

I'm keeping the stockish look.

I like the look of a stocker R32, big tyres hanging out the back with a stockish looking muffler that has a nice 3.5" s/steel pipe. I'm not big into milo-tin mufflers, atmo bovs, lowering & big body kits etc. :rant:

Is Gary still there? He use to own a really clean VLT.

I'll come down and show him the new motor when its in.

    • Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue. 
    • Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder
    • Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia body...
    • This. A 3d wheel alignment is like $120...just take it to the shop. Since theres probably multiple adjustments that need to be made after changing something. Mine has front/rear lower arms, traction rods, tension rods, camber arms, toe arms, front upper arms, hicas kit, sway bars and coilovers. I measure from the edge of the bolt holes on the originals and set the same length on all the adjustable stuff to dial it as close as I could to OEM. Took it straight for alignment; it didnt feel right at all...after alignment, it feels perfect. Similarly i've just changed the springs on another car; and I still needed multiple adjustments to bring it back in spec.
