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

    • R34DE as in R34 with an RB25DE? So did you get this? Or you planning to?  I'm not really sure what you're saying. 
    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
