tein SS and whiteline sway bars

hey all, I have an R33 sedan (s1) that I'm looking at fitting Tein super streets on and Whiteline front and rear sway bars (most likely 24mm adjustable front and rear) will also probably be going with the HD links. I was curious if anyone else has done the same or done similar mods and if there were any tips or anything else i might need to consider before sourcing and installing these. 

to avoid any confusion I'm after a comfortable yet rigid street/daily set up. 

any advice or input is welcome and appreciated, cheers

24mm adj front & rear will quite probably lead to the car being oversteer biased.  I have mine set hardest front, softest rear, with otherwise well matched springs, and it is definitely lively at the rear end.  24mm adj front and 22mm fixed rear would be a safer setup.  Not trying to dissuade you from going 24mm adj both ends....just warning you how it comes out in practice.

The bars are pretty firm, but not as "firm" as the typical 8&6 kg springs you get on Teins.  So you won't even really notice the influence of the bars on roll stiffness as much as I do.  My front springs are only in the 5.x kg range.

22mm definitely sounds like a better option for what I'm shooting for.

does this mean i should go with the bars to start off and give that a run then see how it performs and base my suspension selection on that?

thanks heaps

      Looking for parts for 2003 V35. Specifically a working OEM stereo and passenger side window motor.

      Thanks to @V35_Paul there is an oem stereo available on gumtree, but the fascia is slightly different. It has a flip up screen as opposed to my pop up screen. Am I able to disconnect the radio/cd player from the fascia to use it on mine?

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Had to google what a quart is lol.. so rough as guts a litre. That's a bit excessive, also what oil weight are you running? The whole steam cleaning idea isn't too far fetched either. Maybe as you suggested, turn off the WMI (assuming your Kebabtech pulls timing, boost, etc.) and run it for a bit and see if there are any noticeable changes in spark plug colouring.

      Is this pressure plate warped? And do I need a new one?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Pretty simple question. I was about to put the transmission back in and thought I pretty much had it lined up when I noticed it seems like the pressure plate isn't flat. I was pretty careful when undoing the bolts both during initial disassembly for cleaning and when torquing them up for installation so this is pretty discouraging. I'm not sure if I accidentally bumped the pressure plate with the input shaft and bent it somehow or if it just showed up this way. Is it possible that there's just something obvious I'm not doing correctly? I'm pretty sure I was extremely careful to make sure the friction discs were seated correctly in the hub, everything lined up, flywheel torqued according to sequence, the little springs all sitting correctly in their seats, etc.  What's the play here? Do I jump straight to a new pressure plate?

      Nismo 1.5 way Stub axle issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      OK. I can see that being the case. But if you live in the land of "only switching between 4.08, 4.11, 4.36" like most Skyliners, then you never encounter it. Now I perhaps understand why the crownwheel is thicker on some of the smaller numerical ratio diffs. The two stubs being the same (unequal) lengths and just swapped side to side between the different cases is a new one to me. I'm hating Nissan R200s more than ever now.

      RB gearbox options

      By Butters · Posted

      Reason I say this is I have seen broken ones, in drift, drag and even behind a stock Z. I do appreciate most of the time its the synchro's that go.   Trouble with quoting HP is it doesn't really say how strong the box is.  I've not seen many CD00X box's make it past a mid 9(150mph) I have seen about a stock R33 RB25 box's run a 9 too, they all go boom at some point though.   Another clue is they make gearsets for CD00X box's too, wouldn't be a market if they didn't break or have a limit people are going past.   I totally agree it is a strong box, just have to weigh up the true total cost of the conversion vs rebuilding with a good gearset.
