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

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
