what was wrong with the kit Grego?

Gary's recommended kit includes the following:

Front Eibach Main Springs

Rear Eibach Main Springs

Rear Eibach Helper/Tender Springs

Colil Over Conversion Kits x 4

Front Bilstein Shocks

Rear Bilstein Shocks

Front stabiliser bar adj

Rear stabiliser bar adj

Caster Kit

Front Camber kit

Rear Camber Kit

Front Bump Stops

Rear Bump Stops

Rear Subframe alignment kit

I'd like to hear your thoughts Grego as I was just about to get the funds organised for the above?

Shocks, springs, sway bars and bump stops are good. Everything else i would be going adjustable arms (you can get adjustable arms with rubber bushes rather than spherical bearings). The sub frame alignment kit http://www.whiteline.com.au/product_detail4.php?part_number=KCA349 why would he recommend that rather than just replacing the 20 year old bushes?

Also what about the diff mounts, rear lower control arm bushes, bushes in the rear hubs/uprights and more i can't think of now. There are a lot of parts he has left out.

Hey scotty, calipers are upside down afterall

Yer, thought it was. Ah well ill switch them over next time they need bleeding.. They still work really well

Also, so much zed, so little shed

Holy Zeds Batman...... I like the fact you've got so much love for one type of car. Any chance we will see one of these at the dyno day this weekend or happy laps??

We should have a party at Mikes and see how much of the backyard we can fill with Zeds and Skyrine. If the Zeds win, we but him a beer. If the Skylines win, we put an RB20 in one of his Zeds. :-D

rb20 might at least give more engine room for other mods. May stop the process of taking the engine out of a zed to do an oil change lol

    • 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.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
