Hey guys

Used the search function to bugger all avail.  Question, Is there a thread someone knows about that shows someone retro fitting a C4 behind a GTS-t R33.  I may have been using the wrong search terms but did search for a while..

If anyone knows any that would be great. Looking to run a C4 for drag strip purposes.

Cheers

This is just dumb, use a RE4R03A as found in Z31tt and other nissans, it fits without adapter plates (use R01A bell housing) ,doesn't use frankenstein converter, no panel beating involved, and standard easily handles 600hp+. Only fabrication needed is new front driveshaft section and manual valvebody with transbrake for launch. If you have more neddies than 600 there are literally dozens of manufacturers around the world who sell upgrade components.Its a far better alternative than a C4, been there, done that, got the R03A. 

Th400, Trimatic, C4 Into A R33 ?

KiwiRS4T - thanks mate.  I know its been done just wondering if tunnel adjustments for the trans need to be made etc etc before the body comes off the rotisserie.

 

Rusty Nuts - Cheers for the input.  But I can rebuild a C4 quite easily. I'd assume that the Nissan box would be far more complicated.  Im not worried about having to modify tail shaft and cross members etc etc.  C4 is simple and everyone knows the tricks for them.

 

EDIT: sorry Kiwi dunno how the hell I did that on the post.

      Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.

      I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.

      From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.

      They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
