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

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

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
