ok guys, while i'm doing my rb30 conversion i'm putting my new cooler on, firstly i just wanna know is this how it should be mounted? Secondly i want to keep the standard route for the cooler piping for the stealth look so the outlet on the drivers side needs the 180 degree pipe but i can't see where its going to go! the only place i can see to put it is under the cooler but won't it hang below my standard type m spec front bar, which i don't want? And lastly has anyone been able to keep/relocate they're spot lights on there 32 after putting a cooler on as i couldn't see how i could keep them.

You saw my Stagea yesterday at the dynoshop - thats got a front mount with return feed to the standard holes in the 'airbox' side of the engine bay.

With the 'dohnut 180degree pipe' maybe install at an angle going under the engine as such, in lieu of straight down.

Im still able to use the spotlights, for photos see Stagea section "the intercooler thread".

I was able to keep my fog lights when i installed the intercooler. I just modifed the brackets for the lights a little, ie cut off the bottom section and mounted the pipes hard up against the lights. There is a tiny bit of overhang, but its a standard bar. Dont know how your going to get the pipe running under it back to the stock pipe though, maybe offset the pipe so that it runs behind the intercooler and back to the origional pipe.

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
