i hate it when ever i leave work there is one road with a terrible surface and i see it coming and try not to let it happen so now i just clutch it/change gears over it or take it off throttle, this is a section of the road not the entire road fyi 8)

You just answered your own comment there, your aristo (read barge) is so bloody heavy it NEEDS stiff suspension to eliminate all the commodore like bodyroll.

As for the lurching, what sort of clutch do you have? How much play do you have with your release point etc? Might just want to give it a few move revs before you engage the clutch. Your suspension doesn't have anything to do with how you're using the clutch :P

Actually, standard suspension is quite soft, i have Tanabe Sustec coilovers in there, they are stiff, the only reason why they roll so much from the factory is the standard(on some) Air Suspension cant control roll too well around corners, the other standard(coil type suspension) cant control it because its not stiff enough, aristos arent supposed to go around corners like they are on rails, they are a luxury car!! just so happens to have either a 1uz-fe mated to a 4wd system, or a 2jz!!

hehe yeah, I neglected to mention they were actually a luxury car in japan :happy: Theres a dude rollin one with custom plates (can't think what they were at the moment) running about 500hp. Youngish guy, managed 420rwhp at a toyota dyno day last year down at In Tune Performance. 2jz's are hax...

    • Is the 650rpm idle on the rb25det neo for stock cars only? I've never had my car before and after tuning it to idle at 650rpm when cold. Always idle's cold around 1100rpm, and then drops to about 900-950rpm. I've heard the r33 gtst's idle there.

    • Hi all, I’m currently running a str pipe hi low hks exhaust and downpipe. Was wondering if I change out muffler to a titanium one will it change the sound of the exhaust? Plus I have always liked the look of the titanium pipes … anyone have recommendations to one?    side note already have titanium intake pipes. 
    • I looked up my other car that is a R33 GTST series 1.5. Anyone able to confirm what a Aero Form Bumper is?     (1G) 2 Door Coupe; (2GK + 11V) RB25DET; (4B) 2WD HICAS; (7F) 5 Speed Manual; (14G) Super Fine Hard Coat; (15U) Large Rear Spoiler + Aero Form Bumper + Rear Wiper (Aero Selection)
    • Ha ha, all good! I've almost caved in and realised I'm buying one.  I know myself well enough by now that I will start chasing ADHD butterflies half way through building it and not finish it so I'm better off spending the extra money buying one instead of making one just so I can get into straight away.  I would very much enjoy making one as fabrication is probably a strength and definitely a passion but I don't want that to be at the detriment to the car I'm ultimately building it for! There's some pretty good ones around for ~$1100 at the moment so I think I'll just go that way.  At the end I sell it or as mentioned, get another project to make further use of it! Thanks gents.
