Hey all,

Can anyone recommened a place to wheel align my Evo 7 with new rims? Of course it needs to be someone who is capable of doing a 4wd car.

I need them to run some camber in the wheels to make them tuck under the gaurds.

NEED someone who will take the time and effort to do this. As ive had it done once and the place was told what i was after. They took one look at it (while i wasnt there) decided it would be to hard and just aligned it. Now the tyres just stick out side the gaurds!

So in short help! Recommned someone who will take the time to do it right.

There happy to take there time and camber it all properly the way u want etc??

Light Wheel Alignment

they take really good care of the car there, i've gone in with the settings i've wanted and they did their best to get them. they couldnt get exactly what i wanted, but i've only got adjustable offset bushes and there is only so much an offset bush will adjust.

the rear end of the car, they got the alignment easy.

they even told me what parts i'll need to get the alignment settings i want, and told me the pro's and cons.

also they picked up i had some worn diff bushes, and they even adjusted my power steering rack because it wasnt sitting right.

definitely take your car there if you're looking for a wheel alignment that will maximise you're handling with your adjustable suspension parts. they know what works and what doesnt. and will be able to tell you at what point you'll just be wearing tyres for no benefit.

My car is serviced at sinergy motorsport, and they always check/re-align my wheels for a very good price. Although any during any wheel/tyre fitting, I will be taking advantage of club discount at blackwood tyrepower (who have a good repuation nonetheless)

I had some suspension repairs and alignment done at Light Wheel Alignment and afterwards it drove like a drunken pig. I took it down to Boostworx and got them to check it over and Shaun got the alignment checked and each wheel was significantly out from where they should be. (The sheet's at home, but they were basically pointing all over the place..). So I'd be hesitant to use them again.

I've since used Greg's Alignment Solutions at Regency Park. I was very happy with his work and he's very knowledgeable, but I got the impression he wasn't a fan of crazily modified suspension. Fortunately mine's stock height...

thanks guys.. will ring around, but Adelaide Radial Tyre would be ideal as there just round the corner road!

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
