I've had my 33 for about 18 months now and have read everybodys posts (with envy) when they have bought their mods etc.. Now its my turn.

I had a Nismo cluster and centre gauges put in last week. I ordered a Power FC through Japanese Import Parts which should be hear soon and ordered a set of Volk TE37's from Dave which will take a bit longer but well worth the wait.

I may even get some cam gears installed depending on finances.

Waiting is a pain in the arse.

Yes, I like to think that James.

What it means is the distance from the inside of the wheel where it touches the hub to the inside of the rim at it's furthest point (I'm pretty sure). You'll notice the difference between mine and Andrews. His look a lot more deep where as mine dont as the offset is a higher value. It's so they dont hit the calipers and fit under the wheel arch correctly. If you used the same ofset on a GTT as a GTR they'd hang out the arch's.

Alan,

Where did you pick up the nismo dash from? not that it matters now but I can get pretty good price on them new now..

Also, can I suggest if your going to get cam gears, do it before you tune the pfc.. otherwise you'll keep spending money on tunes everytime you put something on which can become costly.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
