Garry,

Did you get my PM? I deposit money on Friday, for my order for R33 GTS4 and send you the internet money transfer details via PM.Please confirm.

Cheers.

The shipment was received at Bilstein and deliveries will start tomorrow for guys that have already placed orders. There are quite a few sets in stock, but they will go quickly, so get your orders in.

The standard delivery times are restored;

Springs are usually in stock at Whiteline

Bilstein takes 1-2 working days to machine the additional circlip grooves

Bushes are usually in stock at Whiteline

Stabiliser bars take 4-5 working days to make as Whiteline do not keep stock

Delivery is via Toll priority and usually takes 1-2 working days to anywhere in Australia.

I PM the con note number as soon as Jamex issues it that way you can track the delivery on the Toll web site.

:( cheers :)

Hey Gary, was just wondering, if someone was to replace ALL of their bushes, what would that involve?

I've already got both camber kits and the caster kit, front and rear sway bars, and pineapples.....i've ordered the springs and shocks off you so once those are in, is that everything changed or is there still more to replace?

you could probably change the original liquid filled cradle bushes. it's a big job though - the whole cradle needs to be dropped. i've been told that it's easily a good couple of hours kinda job. :laugh:

There are no bushes left that wear excessively once you have installed the stabiliser bars, the caster, camber and rear subframe alignment kits.

:P cheers :P

The R33GTST Bilsteins arrived at Jamex today and deliveries for orders placed will commence tomorrow, check your PM's for con note numbers tomorrow.

If you are thinking of getting an R33GTST kit, I strongly suggest that you do it very soon. This shipment won't last long.

:thumbsup: cheers :woot:

I'm thinking of putting everything on the car myself and then getting a workshop to adjust/align everything.

Has anyone else installed a full kit themselves? How easy was it?

good luck with the bushes.

I haven't done it yet but if you've got your suspension apart to put the shocks in it shouldn't be too hard to take out the necessary control arms and castor rods and take them to a pedders or something similar to swap the bushes over. Since you've done the hard work of getting the parts out they shouldn't charge you much to just press out the old bushes and put the new ones in. They may look after you a bit if you say you'll be back to get a 4 wheel alignment in a few hours.

Then just drive down and get your alignment.

Garry, PM sent, still waiting for the con note.

didnt recieve my con note number, but my parts arrived yesterday in the mail. all in good order, everything seem to be there.

just a q's for you SK, what are the spring rates front and rear??

compared to the normal rate??

thanx

daz.

Got my stuff yesterday too..delivered at 8am!

Was just wondering what grooves the shocks should be set at front and rear for the 350/340 settings?

And also, how involved is the process of changing the height later on down the track once everythings installed...is it like completely re installing the suspension?

Will installing springs/shocks affect my camber/caster settings?

good question, i was wondering about the circlip groove height's aswell, i think they are set for 350/340 setting as they are, when they come, but dont hold me to it. anyway SK will answer all our questions lol

I can't seem to find the price listing Gary.

Can you repost the link for it?

Thanks.

Matt

    • Driveability will be about the same with either externally venting BOV, or no BOV at all. Perhaps worse one way than the other, with me thinking that the definitely more flow going through the AFM through a venting BOV more likely to cause rich stalls than the perhaps more flow that the AFM might read on reversion. There is no such thing as "turbo damage" from not having a BOV at stock, or even quite a lot higher than stock, power levels. You need a big turbo with a lot of mass spinning hard getting a horrible slowdown from a slammed shut throttle before there is anything like the shaft loads required to damage things. Not an issue on small turbos. The ONLY 2 reasons that Nissan put a recirc valve onto the RB were: It is a bypass valve. It is open when under vacuum. When not on boost, it bypasses intake air forward around the compressor, which unloads the compressor, allowing the turbine to sping more freely, making the whole lot a bit more efficient when just puddling around. Throttle response should also be faster via the shorter, smaller diameter BOV pipe (when in NA, ie before the BOV closes and boost is building) which is nicer for driveability. Emissions. The reversion causes CO pulses. Eliminate the reversion (or at least, keep it away from the AFM) and you don't get that. The stalling/driveability aspect could have been tuned around, as shown one example of by dose above, if Nissan hadn't put a recirc valve on. Many many turbo engines before the RB had no BOV. They did not stall. See the RB30 turbo as an example. Nistune is definitely better than just stock ECU. It allows you to access and change things that are not excellent on the stock setup, and allows you to do mods like put decent injectors in, relocate the AFM, put a bigger turbo or even cams, etc, on, change to coil swith completely different swell needs, etc etc. All the things that you might need or want to do 25 years after the car was new. Aftermarket replacement ECU is obviously better again, because it gives you even more freedom from the constraints of the stock ECU. I won't be needing to go any further than Nistune though, for the new turbo in the 250ish rwkW region I'm going to, with big injectors, and most other things being stockish.
    • Lucky the prp block is supposed to be released next weekend 
    • Wow guys thank you very much for the HUGE info :-) @GTSBoy I have like 30 minutes if test drive with that car/engine and it not stalled once. IMO it ran very smooth so i guess it was not that bad(but asi i said it is stock) That atmo BoV is worse than no BoV or in my case or it is/will be the same? Cuz frankly i rather have little whooosh sound than that sututu 😄 But either way the less harmfull for engine/turbo the better(if the stock is not an option right away) Yeah about that rebuild i talk with guy who will be doing swap and custom pipes...i think i can get stock BoV or get aftermarket which will function the same. Yeah i looked at that R35 option and i try ask my mechanic more about that if he knows. The engine has stock ECU but i can get Nistune for it. On that stock it runs quite well...but i have limited time with it so rly dont know. Ecumaster is this https://www.ecumaster.com/  It is not some dodgy backyard ECU :-)  @MBS206 Yeah but it will be better to have Nistune than the completely stock ECU no? About that "same" atmo/no BoV. The drivebility would be the same? I dont know but i kinda guess that amto BoV would cause more problems than no BoV in my case? Or is the same? You just "change" one sound for the other? Yeah i read many many many topic about hurting the turbo. But no one know anybody that would 100% tell that his turbo/engine blows/get damaged by not running BoV. Of course turbo would be little happier IMO if it has BoV ..but if you do not trash i think i should be good. And as you can see iam already trying to get this right...just working what i have right now :-) Yeah iam kinda the same...i dont want nothing loud and frankly iam not liking that sututu noise that much 😄 i rather have little bit of "whooosh" or no sound at all. Of course in my case it si a completely another world when you came tu Turbo car with open air box and no BoV and you driving the N/A ...all i hear is engine. Here? I heard turbo/sucking and that sututu 😄 @Yeetus So in my case it is really no difference to run no BoV or some atmo BoV like GReddy FV2? The car would drive the same and has "the same" little problems? As i wrote above i kinda thinked that atmo BoV with stock MAF would cause more problems...but then again i dont know much about no BoV either :-)  So to avoid stalling i "cant" just put neutral on stop lights like from higher rpm? Or? Yeah iam already looking for ECU :-)  Yes iam at the same side with thar R35 MAF :-)  @Dose Pipe Sutututu Thank you i (my mechanic/tuner) will look into that) Guess iam taking the Nistune at least :-) 
    • Here's the workaround with Nistune I was talking about, just add in more timing on the decel table And play around with the fuel cut & recovery, it's enough to stop it from stalling on a decel
