PM replied :D

i highly recommend this group buy to anyone considering a coilover upgrade. while the jap spec coilovers i had were fine for flat roads, they werent very good when it came to uneven or bumpy roads. the bilsteins soak up all the bumps and generally make the car a lot easier to drive, i used to have to variate my speed to the road conditions but now i can stick at the same speed no matter what. they handle great too, cornering feels nice and firm, i just need to order the stabiliser bars to finish it off :O

also gone are all the irritating interior rattles that my old coilovers had :thumbsup:

cheers and thanks to Gary, for helping me out with any questions and installation queries i had throughout the process, he's always more than happy to give advice and answer your questions :pirate:

Hey Gary,

Just had my rear tyres done by Marc Watkins here in Belconnen Canberra. Amongst other things, he noted that my rear end bushes are all shagged, and i need a complete set for the rear end of my R33 Series 1 GTS-T.

I have a couple of other things to run by you, so i'll pop them in a pm.

How much am i looking at? just the KCA347? or should i grab a KCA349 whilst i'm there?

Cheers,

i dont think hes been on the forums, i PMd him last week and havent had a response yet.

Im struggling to get a hold of him as well....transferred some money about 10 days ago... havent heard anything. Can only imagine the amount of PM's he'd get. Poor guy. Its SK though, trust him with my money more than my accountant...

Sorry guys, I have been a bit busy, it’s Bathurst this weekend and this year I have had plenty to do in the lead up. I will also be there over the weekend (Friday to Sunday). Yes, some poor team is going to let me hang around for 3 days (poor buggers).

As far as I can tell I have now replied to every PM, if you haven’t received a reply then please resend the PM. I promise I will try and answer every one before I go.

:P cheers :P

    • Does the old one line up OK if you try to put it back in? In the 32 (different geometry) it is hard to reinsert the ball joint with the sway bar and spring attached. But ultimately.....this wouldn't be the first aftermarket part that is not right....
    • Yep and yep ! Every time I now take out the R33 I get a lot of thumbs up as well, and my car was also a daily until last year. Still get people coming up and asking about it. A while ago the most memorable being a V8 commodore driver who approached me in the bunnings carpark and asked me why the were so fast and what kind of V8 it had in it. Couldn't resist and told him they were only a straight six the same capacity as the 161 red motor. The look on his face was legendry. However the shine has gone off cause as well as the appreciation there is now a lot of harassment from other drivers in there VW/Nline/Ae86 with body kits or whatever the hell they are, while all I want to do is cruise.( well sort of drive with spirt ) I always try and get the hell away from them by driving slow, putting on my lawn bowling hat and leaning over the steering wheel to look as old fart as possible.
    • There really isn't enough to help remotely....the nav screen likely takes it's visual feed from another unit that is not plugged in properly now (that is how the cima worked at least). Sounds like at least the reverse cam works. It is a possibility the screen is dead of course, minor knock while it was apart. I had to replace the Cima screen because it would not display anything in the morning when below 0.  
    • Yeah, I get that. I try to be as cost-efficient as possible with cars, and typically prefer to buy them at the bottom of their depreciation curve. I was looking at those Bilsteins too as they're roughly in the same price bracket as the BC's - lack of adjustability and being soft put me off, not that I want anything too hard. That's my issue with the Skyline, it's too expensive and it's reflected in my driving. I don't mind going full pelt as long as there's a gravel trap to catch me. Really, proper safety equipment is needed for total confidence. Well this just turned up for the BMW. I'll try and get the front together tomorrow and take some pics of the absolutely horrid rear end; perhaps I'll have a crack at the rear on Wednesday. I need to make the car drivable before the weekend as I'll be driving it over to London.
