Ok I had a little trouble with grip down at the track last time i was there, and several people have suggested that i get "Pinapples" to increase the grip.

Only one problem, i dont know what these pinapples are, or how much they cost

can anyone tell me:

The technical name for them (i didnt find any "pinapples" listed in the suspension section of any parts sites).

About how much they cost?

What they do?

are they worth it for street driving with the occasional trip down to the drags.

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      The overboost could be more of a cause. Broken turbines usually ends up in the cat, time to engine rebuild. Blown stock turbos can be high flowed with bigger and modern wheels for greater power goals.

      Yeah was gonna say as it wouldn't line up correctly, I imagine if they put the wheel that way it would mess with the wheel alignment.

      My Neo turbo only went last year. Not 35 years old, to be sure - closer to 25. But still.

      There's no way they left the factory like that. In R chassis there is nothing stopping the steering wheel being put on one spline out from straight, and then adjusting the steering arms to "correct" it (sort of). As well as the indicator cancelling there would also be an issue with how tight you can turn in one direction to the other. The other (less likely) possibility is that the "clock spring" (the circular electronic part that allows the wheel to turn while still having an electrical connection for horn and any other buttons like cruise) might not be in place correctly. I don't have any pics of the R33 (or Stagea) setup but there would be a circular locating tab which sits in the steering column to have it straight...if that is not seated properly then the indicators may not cancel at the right point (and, you might also get a HICAS error since it would think you are driving in circles)
