undo'ing one of the links will take the sway bar out of the equation as it effectively means its just hanging off one side and not under any tension

i have the same problem as you, caused from the same thing (gutter), and unfortunately i know what the problem is.... bent chassis rail :D

anyone know how much it would cost to get it straightened out if i remove all the necessary parts for a panel beater to get to the rail ?! sorry bit off topic..

I'm not sure if this is the same sort of problem, but mine was weird

but when I had the std suspension taken out of my 32 GTST it was leaning to the right. put new shocks and springs in, made the height adjustment and it still didn't help

In the end the guy had to have a custom bracket made up to bring the right side up to the height as the left

i might have to see the guys down at fulcrum ( spelling?). when installing the top arms what would cause one of the bolt holes to be out of alignment? when i put the stock items back in after the adjustable ones died, i put the bolt through the one at the back then tried to put the bolt through the one at the front and it was out by about 5mm. anyone?

There are whole pile of little issues that I can see, not one big one. I have read back through this thread and I can't see the rear height measurements. I know the front is 380/350 (L/R) but what is the rear?

With that information, I will write up what I suggest you do and what settings you need.:)

quick check , have you got the 'a' s on the front upper arms on the outside of the car, the arms only go in one way. Also they have to be torqued up when the car is at normal road height, possibly they may not have tightened one of them properly.

Also is there any packing behind the plates that the top arms mount too - on the body, maybe someone has tried to adjust the camber that way.

no.. i completly took off the adjustable arms and then fitted standard items and there was nothing there.. when the left side went in it didn't line up with the outside bolt, i had to twist the arm to get it to line up.. and yes the arms have the a to the outside of the car

      CAM COVER BILLET HALF MOON RB RUBBER REPLACEMENTS

      Tried them, they leaked. I also foolishly bought some random rubber ones that leaked too.  Genuine and not looked back.    As always though sample size of one, and I could have made a mistake installing them.

      Installing the fuel sender O ring in R34 GTT

      Shit job but not hard. I'd use a piece of wood to knock the plastic lid open to avoid damaging it, use a vacuum to clean up the fuel sender lid also so crap doesn't fall in. I'd probably do pump and filter at the same time since you're already in there, I reused my OEM sock after a quick clean since the one provided wasn't long enough. Could also hardwire your pump if you feel inclined.

      Supercheap auto sell this: https://www.supercheapauto.com.au/p/pat-plusquip-fuel-tank-lock-ring-tool---universal-kit/SPO3564082.html I own this and if you HAVE PATIENCE you can remove it without snapping lines and generally being incredibly angry, then said at doing this job. Sadly I've removed the pump about 75,000 times over the years. I don't know if you're a large lad or a smaller lad but my advice to you as someone who is 185cm is if you are my height or smaller, is to sit in the boot and take your time. Yes you can put the seal on. The seal goes over the white thing/lid (you will see how it 'slots' in) then the whole assembly presses into the tank. then you screw the lock ring on. I spent so much time doing things the wrong way by trying to mount the seal into the tank first, then putting the white fuel hat on in the space provided. Put it together first then it'll all go in. But seriously be careful about removing the hoses AND where the removal tool is moving relative to the plastic pipes coming out of the lid when you've removed it. IT IS BRITTLE So brittle in fact I have two spare lids, and would recommend buying a spare and having it handy before attempting to do this. May as well throw https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD in the tank as well, as this uses all stock plugs and such. You may need to/strongly recommend you re-use your OEM fuel sock or use the one supplied with a length of hose so it sits at the stock height.

      The tension is automatic....if you follow the installation instructions Self adjusting tensioners are used when the chain/belt is expected to stretch during it's service life, but the downside is the tensioner itself can fail and cause a problem, while the RB system is locked once it is installed and doesn't have that risk
