G-Attack R-tune :) I can adjust the spring damper rates on the dial on the top of the struts.. but I to adjust the camber u need camber plates or a camber kit..

Yes Troy, answer my PM punk! ;)

Roy, what's a good camber setting you would recommend? I think the stock camber is set at 1 degree... so maybe increase of 1-2 degrees negative? I want about 3 deg. negative on the front.

My car is heading into centerline next Friday to have the suspension installed and the rest of the setup done so I'll let you know how I go. What did you pay for the R-tune's if you dont mind me asking? New or used?

LOL...dont ask me. I played with my susp settings trying to gain a second or two and went backwards.

Depending on the castor etc you are running, i found 3.5 deg way too much. The car had alot of mid corner push/ understeer. I think it came back to the fact that there wasnt enough tyre patch on the road, as running plenty of castor gives you dynamic camber when you turn the wheel, so running too much static camber just reduces the amount of tyre in contact with the road whereby hurting braking/traction.

Onmy car 2.5deg C seemed to work well. BUT thats my car which has swaybars, different ride heights etc etc so your car will most likely be different. If you want to get close first go talk to an expert, when i started playing my cars handlign went backwards, but at least i learnt what doesnt work and why :)

Ill have a temp probe to measure tyre face temps ont he day, so will soon get an idea of you are workign the tyres properly ;)

pfft - what are you guys on about? Castor angles? Toe? Spring Rates?

Its all bollucks. Just get in the damn car and drive! ;)

But 4wd cars dont seem to have near the appetite or sensitivity to killing semi comps :)

is it that or cause he drives like a girl? :D

so on the top parts of the suspension in the engine bay which things do u move?

the nuts and stuff on the left of the damper adjustment nob or on the right???

You running Nismo's too? R tune or S tune?

 

Was gonna say my R's dont have camber adjust and I didn't think any did!

 

Troy - When you looking at making these up?

will be making these in the next few weeks

is it that or cause he drives like a girl? :P

Do Cefiros run susp similar to the S13? ie Struts v wishbones? Sounds like they might. What shocks are you running, and im assuming you have adjustable strut tops.

If so then yeh you can tweak camber using that plate looking thingie that the shock top pokes through, and then you may be able to change the rebound etc of the shock by tweaking the knob on top of the shock body. Make sense?

well I did see a blue r34 with about an inch of tread missing on the outside of the front right. Those 4wd cheater just get to rotate rims all around so they can make them wear better. But its still the same problem, the car rolls onto the shoulder of the tyre

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
