KLR33

ppl want to winge n wine if hooning goes on public roads but we r running out of places to go with oran park closing (for drifters more than any one) if some one lives close to the air strip ,go knock on the door n ask who owns it

if the gas has leaked out u can add more nitrogen not air but if the gas leaked out before it will probally leak agian if so u will need to get a rebuild

most spherical bearings used in shocks have a teflon liner i have replaced a few a normal spherical bearing with out the liner or bush will cost aprox 25 a teflon lined or bushed spherical bearing will cost around 90- 140 teflon bushed have a much higher load rating u may need a special tool to remove the bearing from the shock top i had problems finding the exact size i needed , had to mod/machine the tein top i got my last lot from SES linear bearings , milperra, 9792 7188

try locking the 2 top rings together put the bottom of the shock where it bolts to the hub into a vice ( using soft jaws ) using c spanners on the rings locked together to turn the whole shock hope it helps

r32 drift n track car only current drift set up front right - 1.6 deg front left- 1.6 deg caster +10 deg front total toe 4mm rear right -.5 left -.5 total toe 0 corner weighted 51/49 % front to rear 1259 kg with driver n half a tank need more front camber but i want to see how it handled before i modded the front end will go to around 3.0 n see how it feels for circuit i would run a little more rear toe n rear camber + shock,spring n bar changes i woud be keen to c what other drifters r running and why is no one eles posting caster caster is your friend

XD9s not to heavy. i have alot of wheels and they r one of the lighter ones they were for my s15 n thew them on the 32 for the last day out i cant rember the offsets 17x8.5 or 9 sorry to many wheels , 17x9 advan bf hand cut slick front got a bargin , best i can afford at the time on the rear most of them r second hand (bite me i get them cheap) you can never have to much front grip when drifting nothing worse than undsteer imo the best thing to do is get super long wheel studs 76 mm n spacers 5, 10 , 25 mm doing this u can give any wheel the offset u want with spacer combos give your car more width , it will make it more stable n not prone to snap oversteer as u get better u will have to get more grip (bigger or better tyre ) at the rear or u will not be able to keep going faster

i usually go in between spot welds as it is already welded on that spot as the name sugests. it does make a difference but u wont notice much if the rest of your set up is lacking if u do go to the effort then another thing u can do is around the door jams with a spot welder new spot welds in between the factory ones

ok i could write a whole page of dos and donts but short answers r 1 done 8 full cars and bits on i dont know how many cars .best trick is prep clean the surfaces back to bare metal then clean some more seam sealer between the pannels is your worst enemy you will only get flex if u heat the area to much 2 just the towers u say, if u do all the stripping n some prep around 350 if they have to strip ,prep,weld,seal,paint,around 1300 3 i would not use a tig i would use a mig some reasons are speed mig is much faster, n trying to tig upside down under the car is not easy and it is easier to get the mig into tight places tig is good for small jobs un less u have a fark off watercooled tig 4 heaps of othe problems if the prep is bad, fires ,chocking on smoke clouds , burns from boiling seam sealer splashing back at u good prep will make a big difference heres a few pics

^^^ thanks pm sent

after a few not so plesant trips to the council to lodge a da approval and being denied for incorrect paper work . i now need to find a drafts man to draw up some to scale plans main problem is that i need them fast or i m going to cop a 1500 dollar fine for taking too long to lodge the da. if some one on here is capable of drawing up plans pm me or details of ppl who could help i m happy to pay for the services i know its a long shot but i m located liverpool area , so the closer the better. thanks ppl

its not 100% the same but will work no problems i have put a r34 cradle in a r33 the main difference is the hubs n shocks

have uesd both it was reasonably clean inside the timing cover so dont think ant thing got on it and did not have any adverse effects but i have seen the blue come off

i used a non hicas r33 na cradle r33 na = no hicas also fits into r32

thats a good effort to get the cop car as well ow well they can go buy back the bits at cash converters at redfern

its on tv channel 7 now

a s15 6 speed diff is around 3.8 s15 use the r33 4.1 as a upgrade if u get a s15 diff n shafts that will get u lower revs

thanks for the reply v spec r33 the only measurements i can find on the os site r 1.8 kgm =13.2 ft-lb and 14.5 to 15.5 kgm =108.5 ft-lb but that must be for the fly wheel bolts it says 3.0 kg m but thats for the super single ( its the only part that would translate for me ) cant really work out what measurement is for what if i tighten the 10 mm some spin at about 12 ft-lb n some will tighten up to 27 ft-lb heres the site i ve been trying to work out http://www.osgiken.co.jp/pro_clutch/pdf/clutch_manual.pdf its a pdf n the only measurements i can find r on page 5 thanks again for your help
