i like your work joeyjoe.

was the creator of that orange abomination referring to numbing my mind? it wasnt numb..just dumbfounded that stock suspension is better for getting 280rwkw down to the floor someone really should tell schumacher might get him another world champioship with that little pearl of wisdom.

Lol fag. I said it's better for acceleration than stiff suspension. The more the car squats the more traction you will get. Don't question my knowledge. I probably know alot more than you about these cars. Hey I've owned a 250rwkw r33 when I was on my l's (7 years ago) and p's thy had twin hr's. Handled awesome but no squat and ha no traction.

And just for your knowledge i have nothing againt Hamish and shan we actually are friends just tie eachother shit onthe interwebs all the time

man how do u walk with such a big e wang?

stock suspension is gay. dont try and justify it by saying u had a 250kw skyline on ur p'z.. mate i had a chrome mongoose so dont be fkn with me =\

your knowledge is rubbish if stock suspension is so great for acceleration why isnt everyone else using it? cos they could afford real suspension ?

hey my car has stock suspension still 0 to 100 in 4.88

is nobbad :)

...but far from ideal

the car would be quicker with suspension work

well mine has camber, caster, toe and pineapple kit

so still stock ish

Err I just compared my old 33 with tein hr's that cost like $3000 in like 2003. Awesome suspension for handling but didn't have any squat. Hence no traction. Thought i said that already but you must not have read that part. Obviously I can buy suspension anytime I want. But ot other priorities ATM than the car.

so u concede better suspension is better then stock suspension.

that was worth while.

of course it's better. But The suspension people buy because they have no idea and think that the stiffer the better. For now standard will do as it grips. I have taken it to skidpan days and it doesn't peform too badly. It's not an easy choice to decide if a car will be made for drift or traction. That the choice I need to make.

For record I did go to a skidpan training day. Thy had s14s with full drift setup and roll cage. I had my 100% stock suspension. Don't know if its the driver or the car but I performed slides on a wet roundabout all the way around. The s14 couldn't do 1 lap

For now standard will do as I blew all my money on a big fuckoff turbo, cocaine and bitches

fixed.

personally i'd rather get my suspension setup for handling before i worry about power.

not enough traction = get more contact area on the road = get your suspension right and run wider tyres (and run AWD :)).

saying stockies are awesome cos they squat is like saying the colour orange makes your car more aerodynamic.

umm, lol, thank-you shan? lol.. slightly creeped out now XD

just saw your devianart pics

you have skills!

the horse sketches are awesome. did you use charcoal to render or just normal pencil?

the cars proportions are a little off though :) practice makes perfect

the cars proportions are a little off though :P practice makes perfect

Are you saying my car is ''un-proportional''? :) :)

My silo was the first car she ever tried drawing, she does have skills, makes good coin too ;)

Lol love the quote

Haha yea I am getting something soon hopefully. Just need to decide spring rates

for a square car, yes it is :)

if thats a first try, she did a good job.

my first car drawings resembled integras with 48 inch chromies haha

Haha, thanks, yep jesse's car was the first I ever had a go at, I can defs see where I went wrong with it ;). Both the horse and dog sketch things were done in just normal pencil, nothing amazing.

there's just no privacy on the internet huh! :P

    • @Vee37 How much do you really care about finding these pads again? If your pads are quiet, work well and produce minimal dust, really isn't that enough? If you are set on finding the exact pads again, I suppose I'd do something like this -  Visit your local Jax, find out what brand of pads they carry. If the Jax workshop you previously went to had the pads on the shelf, then you can almost guarantee it will be of said brand.   I'm guessing you don't have the receipt for the previous work and pads. Can you visit a Jax workshop and see if they can look up your previous job to see what pads were fitted?  Still no luck? Put your stalker hat on, find the staff that used to work at the Jax store and ask them. Talk to local workshops, try to find out where the mechanics went to. Talk to Jax workshops, maybe they relocated to another workshop. When it comes to mechanics, its a small world. You'd be surprised how easy it is to track someone down. If these ideas don't work, shit will start getting crazy very quickly.... You could find out every brand and model of pad that fits that car... and try them individually ticking each off the list if it wasn't the one you were looking for.... If you go down this path your going to want to learn how to swap pads yourself, it is very easy, takes minimal tools and space. If you have room to park the car you have room to swap the pads. Plus you have the advantage of making sure all the brake hardware goes back in so they won't squeal! 
    • You miss spelled bearings...
    • Just putting it out there, that's a decent list. You would be better off *not* doing *any* of that and buying someone else's modded car. Like mine. Or anybody else's. Yes it's lotto dependent and all this and that but that 70K (remember, double your guesses) could go elsewhere. Keep it stock, save your money, go lowball @Dose Pipe Sutututu :p
    • Does not mean what you think it means. The continual rising coefficient is the coefficient of friction that continues to rise with increasing temperature. Not "rising during a single stop", except inasmuch as the brakes should get hotter during a single stop. The RR would not be the best choice for a streeter. Yeah....no it's not. JAX would rummage around in the "shit pads we use for all shitboxen that come in here" and install those.
    • @Kinkstaah I've got my list.. but most of them is to do if I ever win the lotto
