Cradle first, then control arms, caster etc... The usual R32 suspension bushes.

I have a set of Noltec cradle bushes. I'll be doing them myself so no doubt the garage wall will have a hammer or two thrown at it. + a few skinned knuckles.

I had considered the solid bushes but decided to fix the problem properly, + I wasn't keen on increased NVH. I heard some horror story's, probably a little exaggerated though. You don't appear to be disappointed with the increased NVH so they must not be too bad. >_<

One of these days I will have to take you for a spin . It isnt that bad at all. It just stops a bit of the roll in the back thats all .

By the way my daughter has been in the back of my GTR since she was 6 months old and loves my car .

You should of heard her the other day when I took it around the block without her

lol.

My little boy (now 1yr 23months) absolutely loves it.

When he's standing he makes broom noises "brooooooooooom" but the funniest part is he leans back as if he's being pushed back by the car. lol

If I give it a little squirt he laughes and then says "whoooooh"

Funny little tacker.

Emma is now 3 1/2 and calls my car a race car . Since its been of the road {8months}{to long} she constantly ask's me when are WE going to take it for a drive.

She also knows a 32 from the other models. {thats like daddy's}

Still laughing about the whooosh and broooom though >_<

I've been to so many wheel alignment places its not funny. And most of them don't want to listen to what settings you want which annoys me more. Eg one person said that -0.5 camber on the front is too much for the street. Yeah right.. Also I wonder about the accuracy of the machines. One place had my camber at -0.5 and then another shop 1 week later said it was +0.5 and I didnt touch anything. Bah I wish I could have my own equipment so I'd do whatever I want. Group buy anyone? lol

possibly ripped off again

but the work shop in question quotted me that price but stuffed me around for 6 weeks and ended up doing it for free. claimed under warranty in the end {they did}. :/

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
