Hey guys this has probably been covered but when I search it brings up a blank white page.

But the question is, I've just chopped out a full set of tires, it's scrubbed out all the insides ie. Camber wear the rear left was really bad. I'm just wondering if this is common and what should I look at doing to fix. I've got coil overs in the front and 17's should I look at adjustable front camber arms and castor rods to start off with?. I've got a new set of tires to go on but I don't want to chop them out too. Thanks

Brad

I had castor rods done a few months ago along with rack ends and a wheel alignment. But I think they f**ked the alignment up, but having no front camber adjustment means they couldn't have got it right anyway?

I figured it would have been covered before but for some reason when I search no matter what it is I just get a blank white page with no writing no header nothing.

And I tried Google but it lists everything from 31-34 and from wheels for sale to what are these wheel posts lol its quite broad in its search

Starting point is look for damage, worn bushes etc and get a full wheel alignment.

A trusty suspension place can do an 11ty point suspension check for a few $ > get under the hoist with him and ask Qs about bushes, rods, knuckles, brackets, suspension Brad

Measure the distance from the wheel centerline straight up to start of the guard. I'm guessing your car is lowered, and lowering adds negative camber as the lower control am is longer than the upper control arm.

Also scan and post up the alignment specs.

For search, GTSboy is saying go to google, then enter something like "R32 GTR tyre wear site:sau.com.au" in the search bar.

I've got the alignment printout I'm just trying to figure out how to upload. My mate who's a tire fitter had a look and thinks it's all up the f**k too much camber and suggested the camber arms and castor rods.but Mr shabby that makes sense about being lowered, yer I tried that search too but because Google just picks up words like gtr it lists r32 r33 r34 and doesn't list it in order lol.

    • I recently got their dbw 74mm throttle body and pedal kit. It is sensational quality especially the wiring harnesses. Unfortunately I can’t answer u about the fitment to stock inlet manifold as I’m going Rahjab Racing forward plenum. Only one thing to be careful of is understand u have to pay gst and import fees if your purchase is over $1,000 in one shipment.
    • yeah i agree paint match stops it from standing out so much, oh that's actually really good to know i was wondering if it would help with air flow now actually having an outlet in the bonnet. Will have to focus on ducting into and out of the radiator now to make the most of it.
    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.
