Long shot since they're long discontinued but before I remove the bushings from my JIC arms and replace them with whiteline adjustables...

If you upgraded to gktech fucas sell me your noltecs before you bin them 🙈

well, just be aware on of the reasons they are not available (apart from noltec going broke...) is that they weren't that great. Very hard to adjust on the car and the locking bolts were known to slip at times

Yeah but there aren't that many short or adjustable arms that aren't using bearings (which I explicitly don't want)

 

Also I have nismo brackets so the bushings last longer.

I don't want to get your WTB off track, but the other option to keep bushes is to shorten the upper arms, Just Jap used to have a jig for that

I did, I have the jic -10mm arms which are 170mm fixed (no adjustment)

I might shove whiteline bushings in them to get the adjustment if I can't find noltecs. Not totally sure they will fit though.

Yeah we run standard arms with superpro adjustable at each in the race car due to rule restrictions. They do flog out due to the geometry issue once you add caster, we just treat them as a regular maintenance item

That's why I have the nismo brackets, and the offset on the jic arms is also different from stock (closer to Cusco version)

But they are fixed length which sucks.

    • If you are fine with China turbos, Maxpeedingrods makes a bolt on turbo. Ive had mine for two summers now and it seems to be holding up ok. 
    • Howdy all Im in a little predicament and wondering what everyone’s thoughts are? I’ve had my long block rebuilt and am in the market for a turbo due to my old one having metal shavings from crank bearings (cause of rebuild) go throughout the turbos oil lines and there wheel has a little play. I’m not really aiming for any power, just trying to keep it as oem as possible, but I can’t find a turbo that’s built for the stock ecu or find something that would be a standard replacement. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions 
    • How's everyone going? Just a shout-out introducing myself. I'm James, I live on the north side of Brisbane. I bought an R33 that had been left to rot in someone's front yard for 14 years. Apparently, it has immobiliser/fuel issues. Long story short, it's suffering from a seized engine, plus whatever else turns up once it runs. The car is pretty good considering it sat for so long. It pretty much died after being imported. It has a bunch of Jap parts and a full Top Secret body kit. It's painted Fiat Turchese Festival, or aqua blue if you're not French. Another project to throw money at!
    • So the clockspring is responsible for the indicators cancelling on their own? I thought that was the function of that white thing in the center (any idea what it's called?)
    • Can you log IAT? Whilst WTA coolers have their place, doing any sort of sustained run is not one of them There are fixes that slow down the heat soak, like ice boxes, which don't last that long, and interchillers, which are fairly expensive, up grades to the WTA cooling radiator, which may require a bigger pump, and upgrades to the reservoir size,  and upgrades to the cooling fans, but, it all still heat soaks, and takes ages to come down in hot weather  For a turbo, that isn't locked into WTA like my PD blower is, can you not possibly swap to a nice air to air intercooler????, it would be better for sustained runs then, and have alot less things that could go wrong in my opinion
