  1. Hey, Purchased a set of wheels; 235/45 17x8 +30 offset (front) 235/45 17x9 +30 offset (rear) Decided to lower car with kyb shocks and hks springs, sitting about 340mm from centre to guard. Wheel Alignment results; ------------------------------------ CAS Left: +5.17 Right: +6.32 Cam Left: -0.33 Right: -1.29 Toe -0.8 Cam Rear Left: -1.52 Right: -1.40 Toe Left: +1.4 Right: +4.5 "needs castor kit & front camber kit" "upper control bushes on both sides knocking" Car pulls slightly to the left and they stated this is due to camber/castor. Will be fixed when kits installed and aligned. ------------------------------------ Just took car for drive, mine are scrubbing bad at front. Any dips in the road and then you hear a creeking noise coming from the fronts. Not sure if its scrubbing or perhaps the springs/shocks? as it seems to only come from the front right? Anyway to prevent scrubbing without rolling? As i dont want to remove inner guard as then it will expose my SMIC? Thanks Patrick
  2. Spotted Glenn Ridge (host of the carshow) picking up his race track rx7 from traction Tyres in Rowville. Somehow its road legal and really loud haha

    Here is another one using the child restraint bolts on parcel shelf http://www.camerahacker.com/Car_Camera_Mount/index.shtml and a headrest diy http://www.bmwtips.com/tipsntricks/CarCam/CarCam.htm
  5. 340mm is best height for r32 in terms of handling. Refer to sydneykid's posts etc for detailed information
  6. hooray car is lowered! I think its down to 340mm Worried about the front as i have a feeling they might hit the lip if i turn wheel and hit a bump.. ^^, Now i need to fit on the typeM skits/rear pods + spoiler and it will be all good before: and after!!!

  8. kyb SRspecial shocks with hks springs. Nothing special, picked it up for $200 for a full set so cant complain. Will be my temp suspension until i purchase some new blisteins (someday... lol)
  9. shutup biatch x2 Suspension being put in on friday, will have better pics then
  10. Perhaps have a chat to the instructors and ask if they could remove 1 or 2 cones. I remember on my defensive driving course, they removed a couple of cones as we all expressed a fear of ruining our front bars
  11. From what ive heard they are solid engines. Roy runs 260kw on an internally stock rb20 and says it can easily handle more power without any troubles. Here are some of his video's http://youtube.com/user/OZHCR32
  12. They are a nice style rims, but id try and aim for the uras ns01's which they copied. JustJap is currently selling new sets of uras wheels. There are pictures of driftek rims hitting gutters on ns.com...
  13. haha ye i noticed that, thanks for that Car couldnt be pushed due to missfire+wheel alignment Your new car has some quick acceleration there, noticed it in a few places where you pulled away quick and left my rb20 in the dust

  15. Hey, Purchased a set of r33 stock rims with tyres to pass roadworthy/clear defect. Do not need them anymore and hence selling Two tyres are 225/55/16 and two are 205/55/16. Rating is 95V and 91V. tyres have around 30% tread left. The inner of both front tyres is a bit low, but just above the indicator. Wheels in very good condition. only a couple of very slight gutter scrapes. there are two indicator bands on each tyre. one is a thicker one and the tread is around 1.5 on two wheels and about 3mm on the other two. for the smaller band tread is around 2.5mm away on two and 4mm on two. They passed roadworthy at my mechanic. (where the wheels are located currently) Location: Ferntree Gully, Victoria Pick up only Price: $200 Thanks Patrick
  16. awesome photo's TurboX. Amazed that you took photos and drove haha Missfiring car (could be ignition module) + vibrating steering wheel (wheel balance) + car pulling to the left (wheel alignment) wasnt very fun to drive and wasnt keen on pushing it. Hence i was left off somewhere in the back haha I think at one point i would have missed a turn if TurboX didnt slow down for the turn, not sure if that was intentional or not but you saved me getting lost (again) cheers
  17. i got lost on the way home lawl... ~_~ instead of going through the city i went around it lol
  18. rolling i can deal with, but not really keen on flarring.. Can you post a pic of a closer look at the flarring? Also how low is your car from centre to wheel arch? I think my shocks will drop the height to 340mm and hope i wont need to flare.. Thanks
  19. Thanks 17x8 +30 17x9 +30 I might have some troubles lowering the car as the rears stick out a fair bit. Dont think its an issue with the GTR's but
  20. i heard a story that if you jack up the rear of the car, the springs in the shocks will uncompress, when you place the car back down it will be slightly higher because the shocks have not yet compressed to their max limit. If you are off by a couple of mm's this could possibly make you pass Never tried, only heard about it hehe
  21. I got my new wheels today yay! uras ns01's with 235's all round. Sorry about all the pics Have a couple of these clear indicators for sale, throw in some clear/yellow globes and it'l look perfect
  22. the stock boost gauge on the dash does not show numbers in PSI, it has a different measurement. mmhg or something?
  23. Trader on sau sells Nismo N1 sideskirts; http://www.jsai.com.au/shop/product_info.p...66baa699a9e9c43 Hope this is what you're after
