Hi from ohio usa haha . New to the forum search it often for stuff but need to create a profile to ask ?'s . So it's probably been covered but rwd stageas why did they not come with a rear sway bar and what can I use 🤔 I take it a s14 one will do. I've researched and found the 240sx s14 chassis suspension and steering are compatible. So will that work im building it to drift but currently love to cruise it when it's not being worked on haha. But I feel more control in the rear is needed. Definitely with the lil I've done to the suspension so far it's loose goosey in the rear. Any help would be appreciated thanks and cheers

I'm a little surprised there is no rear bar on your car, any sign that it was there but removed (mounting holes on the control arms and subframe?)

While there are differing opinions on sway bars vs spring rates, I am much happier with the stock boatlike handling being improved with relatively light aftermarket springs and reasonably heavy sway bars at each end.

It kind of depends what your expectations are from the handling, but it is likely just adding a sway bar won't transform a big wagon into a track weapon

 

Yeah I agree and I haven't jumped back under to look for signs that one was there but from the previous hours under it it didn't look like it had one on im the first owner in the US. And as for adding it for a performance mod for my track suspension, that's not my goal per say. at the moment I'm just wanting to get the rear under control a lil more until I get time to test and tune when all the suspension components finally arrive. It's a slow build for me just a project to enjoy and she runs strong rn so in-between down time for mods I keep it street ready if the weathers decent I cruise it to work lol. But my commute is highway and we'll let's just say the roads aren't smooth.

    • 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.
