paid for my set, now the hardest part, waiting..........oh this is so exciting

Order on hold as his car was stolen.

Good luck with the recovery, hope it comes back and in perfect condition.

:P cheers ;)

Sydneykid, do you do fittings for these suspension components? If so where are you locaed, and rates?

Sorry I don’t have time to work on my own cars, let alone others. The recommended fitters are in the first post of each Group Buy thread.

:D cheers :rofl:

Thanks mate. Dont suppose you have recommendation for greater south west?

Bankstown is about as close as it gets, quick trip up the M5, Fairford Rd exit;

9790 1745 talk to Bruce

Ok, got the shocks and springs in the car and went for a trip down to wakefield. I was impressed with how comfortable it was and it was a real pleasure to cruise around in and another member who went to the track day would agree with me after having a ride in the car. The suspension set had no problems at all on the track and handled the corners beautifully. Would definitely consider buying the rest of the kits later in the year.

cheers again gary.

Received my kit on Thursday morning last week, and I must say SK went above and beyond any reasonable expectations to make sure I received it in time. Dude is flatout amazing.

Shocks, springs, swaybars, and bushes all went in on Friday. My impressions... the car is really tight and firm, no more jiggling or squeaking over ripples. It feels like the springs and shocks are doing the work now as the bushes no longer bounce.

On larger bumps, pot holes and high speed undulations the car doesn't bottom out, clunk or crash onto the bump stops.

It makes for a great drive on the street, you can feel the road and everything is very direct, so it is far from being a luxurious ride. Still far better than the aged Japanese gear that was under my car previously.

In terms of handling, like lingeringsoul, I went to Wakefield on Sunday too. It was my first time out and I managed a 1:18.2570 on street tyres, the car was very progressive and felt great through the high speed corners as well and putting the power down through the slower stuff.

I love it!

hey mate, can you get R34 GTT whiteline rear camber pair for $128? If so, please let me know and I will forward you the funds.

Yes, PM me for details

:yes: cheers :D

hay sk can you get all the new rods etc to adj rear camber on r33 gtst's from whitline? should i get a hicas canceller bar for some one else or do whitline sell these also.

cheers

Hi Ryan, the Whiteline camber adjusters are the eccentric, polyurethane bush style that fit in your standard arms. I am not a fan of using spherical bearings in road cars, if you want more info do a search in the Supesnion section “Sydneykid”, “any date”, “spherical”.

Try GTRGeoff for a HICAS locking bar.

:D cheers :P

This might seem a little daft, but how much for the complete kit minus the strut tower braces, and a price inc strut tower braces, just not sure if im adding up correctly :P. Also will this kit suit a SII Sedan?

cheers

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
