Hmm, I have the 260rs stagea, with hicas, the guy at the import parts place says the r33gtr coilovers bolt right in to this car... Any truth to this? It's scheduled to be done in about 10 days.. If I need to rush other parts.. Hope I have enough time.

fronts will

although rears dont as the top hats and mounting studs are too wide, so can work if you swap and bolt in s13/r32 rear top hats ...

So from what I have read so far, a 22mm front swaybar and a 24mm rear is the go? No need for a 27mm swaybar in the front? I really want to flatten it out in corners but don't want excessive understeer either.

The 27mm isn't available through Whiteline any more anyway, but in the Stagea the heavier 24mm rear bar is much more important.

Re:Sway bars

So looking at SuperPro and can get them through Supercheap Auto for $272 each excluding bushes.

There are three different sizes for both front and rear.

Front 26, 32 or 34 mm

Rear 20,21 and 22 mm.

Anyone know if there's any issues with the biggest sizes ?

Are they solid bars in each case or are some hollow? The C34 Stagea can be made to understeer badly with too much front anti roll bar and I suspect that for M35 also if you go for 26mm front and 22mm rear understeer is what you will get...but Dale will have a better idea.

After fitting the sway bars:

tighten up one thing, another shits itself..

the car was feeling perfect, tight and quiet.

now there's are massive knock and it feels shithouse again. Loose front end.

I put it up on ramps, jacked up each side, shook everything, can't find it. :angry:

if I swerve front left to right quickly I can make it knock on every turn.

then it keeps on knocking until the car stops swaying.

great,,,, off to the shop again

    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
