99 R34Gtr Vspec, Now Stroked!

[GTRsean]

Was the spigot bearing an original Nissan part? Why did it fail, just through wear and tear?

No Matt, it was a needle roller bearing one, lasted all of 20 mins due to input shaft nicking it when we went to fit gbox. After that, I'm only ever fitting stock bronze one's

Thanks Charlie, it feels good.

Next will be a set of bilstein coilovers

Thanks Brad! Yours will be a monster!!

Still have not done clutch...had to keep it on the road due to things popping up and arriving short notice . Was worth it though!

The clutch is a Nismo gmax twin plate (Brett) , that I got second hand, cleaned, inspected and rebuilt with new clutch discs.

I'm currently half way through getting brembo bits to take the brakes back to something more streetable...

New scuff plates..

Nice scuff plates mate.

Want to sell me the stock ones, if they are in good nick? PM me.

I heard...

Sounds like the car was/is running strong!

[GTRsean]

Is going okay Matt, but I always want more....

Have got a couple of things for it recently:

Some tein bonnet struts.

Also got some bilstein PSS9 coilovers. Only issue is that one of the front coilovers didn't have the fitting kit (nut, spacer, rubber and adjuster knob) with it so I can't use them yet

Will have to get that sorted asap.

[r32-25t]

What did they set you back? Wouldn't have been cheap but they will well and truely do the job

[GTRsean]

Over 2k.... no adjustment spanners, and missing a fitting kit.

Fitted some new tein super streets to Karcher's 450sx. Went in no worries and handles way better and feels great on the road.

[r32-25t]

If its just over 2k that isn't bad at all, they never come with c-spanners tho (or the Porsche kits didn't)

damn, sounds like an annoying buy. PSS9's are normally cheap though, there's a set selling atm too!
