really? are they roomy on the inside?

i wanna get a Galant VR-4 [the old one]

They are good , rallied one to 3rd o/r in the state championship in 1992. Bit heavy but surprisingly quick and anything you can do to an evo lancer , you can do to a VR$ ( except lose weight )

Joe they are small and uncomfortable and feel like they have about as much power as the new corolla. No one at the toyota dealership liked them. Maybe im being harsh but not what im into.

Im driving my favourite car matey :P

So many cars how do u choose a favourite - there has to be a price limit or something to narrow it down!

its got huge brakes and 4wd too.

Brakes are no bigger than a line and it weighs more than a GTR.

Gearing is so high , it will fry the clutch b4 the tyres.

Hmmm , yea . trouble is a lot of the exotics ( Lambo , ferrari , lotus ) may look good until you have to live with them for a while.

Ever driven a Lambo countach and you will know what I mean, crap clutch , useless aircond , no room , engine fries your back in traffic .

But that wail of 12 cylinders in full cry ....... tissue !

Joe , I did Targa in a Porsche 911.

Trust me , they are glorified VW's except they go and stop. Steering wheel to the right , pedals to the left , can't get seat back far enough.....

haha Kens viagra :P

hmm if i had all the money in the world i would have no clue what i would buy - yeah those european fancy wancy cars are nice eye candy but I have no desire to own one - i have a heartattack everytime i have to leave mine in a public carpark - i think owning something like that would send me to the loney bin.

    • Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue. 
    • Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder
    • Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia body...
    • This. A 3d wheel alignment is like $120...just take it to the shop. Since theres probably multiple adjustments that need to be made after changing something. Mine has front/rear lower arms, traction rods, tension rods, camber arms, toe arms, front upper arms, hicas kit, sway bars and coilovers. I measure from the edge of the bolt holes on the originals and set the same length on all the adjustable stuff to dial it as close as I could to OEM. Took it straight for alignment; it didnt feel right at all...after alignment, it feels perfect. Similarly i've just changed the springs on another car; and I still needed multiple adjustments to bring it back in spec.
