all these suspension arms are doing my head in...

so in the rear ill put in an adjustable camber arm and an adjustable traction rod. cant fit a castor rod.

but the front, can get castor arms, adjustable tension rods OR adjustable lower control arms (which includes a tension rod but doesnt look like the other tension rod in the pic).

Well yeah, the rear end doesn't have nor need castor.

i thought so too, but you can buy them for Z33 ??

that frustration when you spend a lot of time researching and arranging an informative post, go to post it, fails, press back, Ctrl+C.... 2mins later Ctrl+C something else and lose all the previous info.

I know dem feels... I just love watermelon so much...

My GTS-T is the best daily I've had. Occasionally wish it was more comfortable, but you can't have everything and the suspension/diff setup makes it such a confident and capable car to move around in - I feel safer driving it than brand new Commodores.

What's wrong with the BMW? Thought it was quite a sporty nimble car which would replace any skyline feels?

It's a great car and on paper it's the logical step up from a gts-t, but it just doesn't excite me a whole lot

I suspect with a few mods I'd come around, and the lack of police attention is refreshing, but Birds posting up links like that gets me weak in the knees. Could be the still painful theft f**king with my better judgment

Everyone who sells or loses their 33 misses it and that's all the proof I need that keeping is a good idea. That and my drives home from work are always over 9000

The fun factor that can't be bought in a new car - it's the character of a cheap and over-engineered powerhouse coupe from the 90s, back when cars weren't all about emissions, people gave no fks for economy, and we didn't try to stuff infinite amounts of de-skilling electronics into a car. Suspect it also has something to do with giving stick to a car worth less than 10k, so you don't care as much about breaking it...even though you never do, because 33 GTS-Ts are bulletproof*

*poles and thieves exempt

Y u do dis to me Birds :(

f**k I want it

Come on brah, that shit is chump change to your VWLBC status these days...whack third party fire and theft on it and it'll make you appreciate the Beamer more as a comfortable daily.

On a side note, I never appreciated my car more than when I had Alvin's auto as a daily driver. Daily and weekender is the way to go. You try to combine both and you're taking your compromise work chariot out for weekends = not the same.

    • You know the worst thing about acquiring more space for me? I tend to acquire more things to fill the space...
    • Ended up spending a WHOLE day yesterday cleaning and rearranging my shed.  Due to the aforementioned disorder, my shed is as cluttered and confused as my brain. Again, because of said disorder,  at any one time there are 5 projects on the go at once and because they're still on the go I don't put everything away so I can "get straight back to it" which rarely happens.. So anyway,  I bought a couple of cheap 2mx2m all steel "pallet racks" to put in my back shed.  The idea is to then take pretty much everything out of the main shed that isn't car related. Most of the garden and building stuff is now booted out to the back shed and onto to the shelves where they belong! There's still more rearranging and reallocating to do and it's still a bit busy in there but it's a massive improvement on how it was previously. I've discovered floor space I forgot I had...  For those that have fully dismantled a car before will understand just how much space it takes up!  Particularly panels, bumpers, engine/trans, etc.  I've got stuff hanging on every available wall to get it up off the floor!  This is not exciting content for a blog but has certainly made the shed feel like a more work ready space now!
    • Updating results from our ATR43SS-1 turbo in T3 .63, OEM bolt dump pattern. Not a big number but pretty sweet for a stock Rb20det. Car's managed to pull 220rwkws at 20psi, perfect boost control internally gated with EBC and excellent mid top end power band as they usually skydive after 5.5K. Usual bolt on supporting mods and inlet plenum and factory location exhaust manifold. Pump 98 fuel was used (Ron 93).     
    • Yeah, well, it's not as though anyone is ever going to buy one of those noisy f**kers and put it into a new installation when there are better pumps that are near silent for less money from Ti.
    • I'd suggest having the engine builder listen to it, especially if they assembled it, and minimise how much you run it in the meantime. It may have a serious issue like a big end bearing from the description and I assume the rebuild was not cheap
