Stick with the std stuff, and go have a few wild weekends on the sauce. Bets find another $200-300, buys you much better gear

i ohnestly didnt understand most of what you said... could you elaberate?

With pricing, im going from stock r32 and buying all performance parts with money from other car, meaning my pocket will only be so deep

i think he means to use the standard stuff and if you can get another $200-$300 then you can get better stuff...?

ive got the HSD HR coilovers in my car and i couldnt be happier with them, you can still feel the bumps in the road as i have mine on pretty stiff settings, but it handles a lot better now. i havent tried them on the softest settings yet. but they are alot better than the stock parts.

Yeh, was just saying that either pocket your money and spend it on a few big weekends. OR, pocket your money and save for a little longer and look at some other options. $1400 is a lot of money to get a compromise. If you were talking $1000 id say they are a good option. But if you are able to get the buidget up around $1700-1800 then you have many more options.

A friend has HSD in his S13. They are pretty good, and considering the pace at which he punts the car they are obviously pretty good on the track. But htey knock like bastards on the street (since only a month or two old) and they are pretty hard on the street. My personal thoughts are if youa re going to spend that much money, perhaps consider what another few hundred buys you.

...and i understand completely about the pockets only being so deep. Sucks doesnt it when the plans for your car are killed by cash flow

    • All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.    
    • It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.

    • Welcome Gabriel. At least your car has a glorious RB and not the shitty CA18. As MBS206 mentioned all the good bits can be added later. Two doors or four?
    • And half of them have been converted to turbos.
