Hi JDM33R do you happen to remember the wheels this skyline had? Like ROTA Grids? Red wheel nuts? Can't really see through the photo.

Only asking because my skyline which looks very similar to this got stolen. Luckily it was recovered a couple of days ago with damaged ignition barrel and some scratches.

Sorry to hear that man, even the original photo is hard to see.

They look like enkei wheels to me or some enkei replicas.

If that is your car, i can't believe i took a photo of it when it was stolen. I posted the photo a day or 2 after i took it.

Friday night outside Aldo's Pizza in Richmond, I spotted a beautiful dark silver (not GMG) R33 GTS-t coupe on black wheels, rego CHP-33V.  The driver parked behind my car (the white Golf wagon), went inside and picked up his pizza order, and then left.

How on earth do low cars get over the speed-hump-monsters (near Aldo's) Nick?

I've never had a problem in the Stagea, Terry.

Another spotting: this afternoon at Seven Hills Centro shopping centre, a gun metal grey R32 GTSt with TE37s (or similar) on it. Sounded nice, too.

    • I can believe it if you're getting air into the pickup. Cavitation is tremendously destructive for pumps.
    • I think the pic in the first post is another car, and post 7 is OP's car with standard arms and swaybar swaybar swaybar. I can't tell what brand the silver coilovers are, and even if I could I don't know whether the spring rate is OK, if you can find a brand on the shocks and numbers on the springs that might help. Also, if you can measure the ride height from centre of your wheel to the guard that will help with advice too as handling suffers if ride height is too low
    • sadly, pics no work. that car must have spent a lot of time in a cryo bubble
    • In the first photo you posted, the colour of the control arms are the signature colour for Ikeya. Same for the swaybar, signature colour for Whiteline.  I like Hardrace, they also do hardened rubber bushes if your car is mainly a street car.  I like GKTech as well, but they use a lot of rose joints in their stuff so might not be the best choice for everyone.  The system might have been good back in its day, but it's a prehistoric system now. I suspect that most people have removed the HICAS as they want the car to do what they want to do, not what the car wants to do. From what I also understand, it isn't consistent in it's behaviour on track so it's hard to trust the car/know where its absolute limits are for track use.  Having said that, I think the HICAS eliminator kit was the first thing I installed when I bought my car. I don't personally have any experience with the HICAS system on a race track.  
    • Thanks for the info. Didn’t know I had aftermarket control arms already? Will talk to my garage. What brand would u recommend if I want to play around with my camber more? I would think my camber is around stock level right now or more negative now due to lowering with coilovers. I will be lower her again 1.5 cm to get some more.    also why does everyone like to remove the hicas system? Is it because most don’t work properly anymore or ppl just don’t like them. Mine is functioning as it should be right now.    thanks for the good info
