    Rotor Diameter Front & Rear R33 Gtst 96

    in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain

    Posted

    Sure.

    Well for the fronts they are DBA4963 and for the rear they are DBA4908.

    Strange how the rears stated on the website are only 292mm, I always thought they were 297mm. :)

    Thank you very much :P

    it is weird that DBA would have wrong size... dont mean to question you but how do you know your measurements are correct?

    just want to be 100% sure before i buy. DB4000 are the rotors that came up for me in DBA.

    So confusing :)

    Cheers

    Hi everyone,

    My name is Mishy, can anyone help me with rotor sizes for my R33 GTST series II 96 model?

    I need to buy new rotors and i have been trying to get quotes, but everyone wants to know what diameter rotors are on front and rear.

    I looked up DBA and it said 292mm and 296mm. I told the brake place this and they said thats probably not right?

    Does anyone know definately what size rotors come stock on my car?

    Any help would be appreciated :)

    Thanks

    Tial Copy 50mm Bov

    no you don't.

    You'll have to weld to get the TIAL one on there, so what's the difference to just welding to put a GTR one on there?

    Will cost you around $50 IMO to have it welded + stock GTR BOV (~$70).

    Problem solved, and the GTR BOV will hold 370rwkw in single form.

    Thanks for your help.

    Tial Copy 50mm Bov

    Or you could put the factory one back on there, won't cost you a cent and will work fine.

    I mean fair enough you've changed it (you should have used a GTR one)... but to change for a copy? Thats silly.

    Cutting the spring might work, but totally depends if its now to short and won't seat properly, rendering the BOV totally useless with the chopped spring in there

    Hi,

    Unfortunately as i have changed the top pipe i will have to put stock one back on to put stock BOV on.

    My boyfriend got this work done for me and I only found out today it was not a genuine tial... i tend to agree with you about the genuine stuff but apparently even genuine Tials dont have soft hard setting which i think is the poroblem, otherwise i would have bought one.

    But yes that was my worry about them hacking my spring as i dont want to do any damage...

    Do you know if i can get another spring that will fit that will have correct tension?

    Cheers mate

    cutting it will make it stiffer, less coils makes a higher spring rate... yet perhaps its too long :S

    i dont understand tho, the title says TIAL 50mm copy, which makes me think you mean a external WG, but your talking about a bov?

    More info is required, and explain what is not working properly

    Its a tial 50mm BOV copy (non genuine) it was actually given to me. Still factory turbo and wastegate.

    Since the modifications mentioned in my original post the BOV will not open properly, we think maybe not enough boost for this size BOV. But we dont want to up the boost just yet as still standard turbo and dont want to damage anything.

    Pretty sure even genuine Tial does not have soft hard setting, already had custom top pipe made to fit this BOV, so would have to have another top pipe made to change BOV if thats what your suggesting.

    Really just curious if i can get a replacement valve spring with correct spring tension to make this BOV work.

    Cheers for your feedback

    I have a GTST 96 model and have just put a saber intercooler kit on and replaced hot pipe and crossover pipe (top pipe) to inlet. I have also put on an apexi pod filter and the BOV on. The only other mod is the exhaust; from cat back, everything else is stock.

    The problem i am having is the BOV fitted does not have a soft or hard setting therefore will not open properly, i have been advised to cut 15-30mm off the valve spring but am not sure if this will fix the problem or cause further dramas??

    Can anyone HELP!

    Maybe a replacement spring for this valve is available?

    cheers guys

    Cheap Insurance For My Skyline

    Can anyone help me out with the names of a few good insurance companies that will insure imports?

    I have previously used Just Car, but I have heard there are some other less commercial and therefore cheaper companies that will insure imports?

    Any names would be greatly appreciated...

    Thanks

    Air Bagging Gts-t

    in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain

    Posted

    Airbags and handling do not get used in the same sentence :(

    If you want to airbag, you want a "show" style car. Looks good, pimp, but is only a cruiser

    If you want it to handle through the twisties, stick with coil-overs.

    You standard suspension will handle better than airbags

    Cheers mate,

    Really the main reason i was lookin into air bags is because my line is an everyday car for me and i'm sick of scrubbin her out on driveways and dodgy roads (Central Coast).

    I know I will lose some handling, but how much i guess is the hard question to answer... even if i buy a decent set of bags i can see wot your saying...

    Thanks heaps dude...

    I'll have a think about it
