Hi all......

Got a problem with my R33 Skyline in that as soon as I hit 110KPH the steering wheel starts to vibrate and gets worse the faster I go....

Could it be that I need Wheel Balancing/alignment (had this done awhile ago but didn't seem to make any difference) or could it be something else (suspension)...

thanks.....

After I had an wheel alignment done on my car it came back with a speed wobble at around 100k's found out the front wheel nuts were not done up properley. My mags need to be done up fairly tight or they get a slight wobble at around the 100k mark. also check to see if the weight havnt come off.

Wheel Balance an Allignment

Make sure the allignment is down somewhere where they know the specs on imports... I once went to TTF and they used R30 settings on my R32... I'm going like WTF you setting it too (cause I know where it's supposed to be) and he's like " This is my job and I know what I'm doing piss off.... went and complained to manager and he said they're experts....

Needless to say I refused to pay and drove to my mate a pedders first thing monday....

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
