Got rid of the old suspension and got new suspension put in the other day (Bilstein shocks and pedders lowred springs 1 inch) and it feels soooo much better. Going through roundbouts she dosn't handle like a boat anymore, it's like it's on railroad tracks, launches feel better of the lights, it's a bit firmer but not to firm.

Me is happy:D .

Also got rid of the old foam air filter and got it replaced with a K&N filter, it breaths alot more freely and it's alot more responsive when accelerating. And got new iridium's aswell old one's were fowled up nicely too.

Just thought I might let youz know. It's worth doing:)

Them whiteline suspension packages for R33's are the best. Bilstein Coil Overs and whatever else they have. Not too harsh, not too soft, handles like a dream. ONARUN has the package in his car, and cruisin with him is awesome espeically through twisty roads coz the car corners so well..

s13drifter, it's a R33 and it is heaps better than the stock one. Not so loose now.

Jay95R33, that one inch does make a big differance, so much better on the road feels good.

Shell, I got it done at Ming Automotive in fyshwick, good group of people too.

R32_GTS4T i got the plugs from Ming Automotive, can't remember the price off the top of my head ill get back to you on that one.

Ming quoted (about) $900 to hi flo your turbo. I wonder what they would quote for a R33, I didn't even think to ask how much to hi flo my turbo yet might have to enquire.

Do you know (or are you goin to) about cruise happening this sunday?

Cool, let me know the price of the plugs if you remember.

I don't reckon it'd cost much different for a '33, so its probably worth asking.

The price I got was at the last Summer Nats, so it shouldn't have changed much if at all.

And yeah, I'm definately coming on the cruise on Sunday, so I guess I'll see you there (so many people to meet this time, it's going to be excellent :) )

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
