They are big donks! And they sound mint!!

Yep I'm ex-westrac so I'll claim that compliment [emoji12]

No bull shitting out at westrac. Especially with the rebuild, dyno guys. And the men who sign cheques. It's a well known fact with in the industry that you know your stuff. Then move on to bigger pay days! 2 x dyno guys, 2 x mechanics, 2 x guys that pay the bill. Fully questioned on all steps, I honestly find it easier to work with those guys than lackeys. Broke down the quote with every single section of the processes costed and explained with pictures and drawings, plus induction time, travel time, materials list and labour break down. Good knowledge and fun.

Gold finger, filling r33's with silver brazing bronzing, and weld? How's it looking for repairs?

Hmm locally available k-frame? (Australia) From a rear end jobbie. Seen a few places in wa that do half cuts? Would be expensive though?

Good times to work around a rb30 they sit alot higher and it would need mods?

Forward facing plengam and a low mount  manifold is pretty much it. I may modify the mpunts to drop the motor for center of gravity helping. Iv toyed with the radical idea of putting the rad in the boot and having the quater windoes as air intakes....

Its literally the rail across the top where the rad bolts too, the panel that sits under the washer bottle and a bumper rio. Bonnet and bumper will be carbon or fiberglass. New under tray will be mild steel and go from front bumper lip to rear subframe

Trick.

Love my front plenum. Is it a 26? No. Where is the bov? Look harder. She's frying the 245's in 1/2. Need to look at new coil overs won't sit and squat since I lifted the ride height? Tramping. All the rear bushes Look good?

Coilovers wont help tramping, too stiff a coilover and low profile tyres dont mix. More side wall = better traction but reduces lateral loading. Less side wall = worse traction but better lateral loading. Then u have to think contact patch, right width for right power.

    • 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.
