  1. The offset will never allow a huge amount of caster increase. I would suggest a pair of Kazama/Cusco/Ikeya/TEIN caster rods if you want to achieve specific alignment settings.
  2. Nawww shucks! If you are ever up NOR we get some pretty low cars in and up on the alignment machine.
  3. From memory these fit easy as. Won't be an incredibely flush fit or anything like that but with a set of 225/45R17s will be a cheap set of wheels to slap on the R33.
  4. Pretty sure Fabcar do it but I am unsure about others. Importing yourself? Have you emailed Kristian/Iron Chef at all?
  5. Offset is too high and they will undertrack the vehicle. Bolt on spacers needed! (About 25mm should do the trick providing wheel hub mount and wheel stud lengths allow)
  6. Could also mean the re-release of a reasonably priced rotary coupe? One can dream!
  7. TEIN Australia are already selling coilover kits and HKS have a plethora of aftermarket goodies ready to go. Also remember that it is akin to the AE86, a driver's car. The little 4AGE never had a million Sarah Jessica Powers but it screamed like a banshee up in the rev range, was light, nimble and was all about using the chassis. There is no need to put in a 206kw 1JZ into it.
  8. But what about all the bolt on goodies? It's at a price where you can easily drop $15k on mods and still have a well priced sports coupe.
  9. Had I not spent similar money on my car last year a GT model with up-specced brakes would be wicked!
  10. Wait a bit and buy a Toyota FT-86?
  11. Best keep your numberplates on it then
  12. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/user/15314-2lv8etr/ PM this man and profit. His RB20 went very fk'n hard
  13. Oh for sure. If you were looking to invest money in a race car for the initial outlay there is no way that you could touch it.
  14. THis thing is ridiculous! Trying to wrap my head around why it's so cheap!
  15. Never had an issue with Performance Modifications.
  16. Difference is I drive to work with my fuel light on, the electric gauge might be dangerously accurate - lol!
  17. Someone like Kristian/Iron Chef will give you a more accurate answer but I believe you must own the car for a minimum 12 months before you can privately import the car (which is easier/cheaper then importing as per usual). Obviously the good thing about doing it this way is that you are not constrained by what is and isn't "eligible for import". Just something to think about.
  18. Yes I have and he is a wonderful (and sexeh) import broker. You will get dozens of similar positive reviews from this forum so just hurry up and buy a car off of him!

  20. Schonhut Panel & Paint in Osborne Park is who we use here at work. They have done both cars belonging to the other guys here in the office with me as well as El Presidente's 350Z (fitted and painted bodykit). 9444 3161 worth a call
  21. I would put on front and rear camber arms anyway, you will want the adjustability after either set of wheels is fitted.
  22. If you're into drifting Ebisu Circuit in the f*kushima Prefecture have an online calendar which could be worth checking out as you get closer to the date. http://www.ebisu-circuit.com/
  23. They're not 265's though surely! You are going to struggle to put a 265/35R18 on the front of a RWD GTS-T I would have thought 18x9.5's all around will go no dramas but I am an advocate of 225/40R18 all round or 225/40 255/35 staggered set-up.
