Dont wasye your time with the Cusco. A friend had it in his STi and they were not bad...but a long way from good. Also, the Type S seem to be a similar sort of thing.

You knock the Super Street, but Giant was gettign excellent results with them for a long time before completely losing the plot with major mods on the R32. I know of quick GTRs using Flex, Super Street. Rock up to a track and look at what the quick cars are running

Unfortunately shocks and springs are just one part of the setup. Lots of other things come into play with suspension setup. Best to get someone who has setup some fast Track GTR's to give you advice or work on the car. But that will cost much more. If you just want to bolt in some coilovers then you're going to get limited gain...

But at the same time. I quite liked the HKS Hyper II a friend had in his car. They have sonce improved with a newer series. And Ant is doing really well with them in his GTR which apart from the coilovers is completely std in the suspension dept. Just gettign some decent coil overs does allow you to spend the money on actually driving/racing the car rather then leaving it parked at someones workshop getting work doen...which is no guarantee that you will go any quick,er as you are still chasing the times the car could have been doing before. :P

Just another thing to consider :rofl:

If it is any help to you, I run 10K front and 8K rear and I am using the full 65mm of bump travel that I have around QR, on street tyres. I also run a full weight (nothing removed) R32 GTR, so with good semis i most definitely think that 8 & 6k will be too soft for a track car. Hope that helps.

      R34 power steering

      49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.

      Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf

      Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.

      Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.

      Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
