Next week ill be going away for up to 16 weeks, most likely 4-7 weeks.

As my car will be laying dorment i want to be sure that laying stationary for this duration wont hurt the car.

So whats the norm procedure. I was thinking remove wheels and place on stands, remove battery, remove brake pads.

I was once told that eninges can begin to corrode, surface pitting etc, after only a few weeks. Is this really true, should the plugs be removed and some sot of anti seize etc be sprayed into the bores.

Or just leave the thing sitting in garage, as the duration is short enough not to hurt it.

The things sit in the containers for that long so it shouldnt be a problem. If you could get someone to start it once ever week or 2 it should be fine.

PS: if u cant trust someone not to take it for a drive put it in a locked garage and only give em the the small door key so they cant get it outside.:burnout:

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • 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.
