Hi, I got my car regoed today and man did it take ages, the girl was inspecting it and she goes not much room in the engine bay, your airconditioning takes up a lot of room, I didnt have the heart to tell her that was a turbo she was looking at, then she couldnt find the engine number, 15mins later someone came out from outside to help her, she said it was good it wasnt modified, I laughed to myself looking at adjustable suspension, pod filter, big exhaust, mag wheels.

Then she asked if it was a 2003 model, I was like err no, its a 1993. with stamp duty, appointment fee, slimline plates and rego it cost me $1113.

My car has nismo adjustable suspension(r33 gtst) and it has the numbers 1-4 on the top off the strut along with like a phillips screw to adjust and I was wondering does anyone know if they adjust height or what?? I can post a photo if it will help when I can get one. It also has an Excedy puck clutch in it that handles up to 450hp, does anyone know what they are worth??

Cheers.

Dazz

that's for the damper, you probably want it on softest setting - aussie roads ain't good for jap suspension.

my set of hks coilovers are on the softest setting and they're still fugging uncomfortable.

To adjust the hieght you'll need the tool. Jack the car up and take off the wheel, there should be a ring over the thread that u use to adjust the hieght. Turn this ring to adjust it with the tool (up = higher, down = lower)

    • The more I think about it, the more I should probably go with a genuine Bride seat and rail set up. But damn the $$$ for a driver and passenger seat + rails!
    • From what I understand, stock internals should hold out for a while even if you run 500 at the crank, no? Especially if you don't run a modern turbo setup that reaches power and torque much earlier than the original twins. My engine isn't unopened either, it has N1 Pumps, head oil restrictor, new crank and cams, new piston rings, ARP head studs and Cometic headgasket along with 2860-5s. Considering everything is healthy this should run fine for a while I assume. Once my engine stops leaking shit everywhere, it'll be tuned to 370 crank first anyway, because I need to legalize the turbo setup. If I end up needing a new engine because my block actually has an issue, even though GTSboy was adamant that the whole porous block story is nonsense, before putting an engine in I'm probably gonna take care of the weakspots.
    • Hah, I have no issues with what you are doing whatsoever! You clearly know what you are getting yourself into. It's just funny reading things like this. "What's that noise?" "Oh, that's normal. That's just the engine not getting any oil. Nothing to worry about. It'll go away in a moment"  
    • Yeah I'm keeping an eye on it and might take it out as a once off if this doesn't fully charge. I did some research that said it's normal in equalisation charging. Voltage I thought was 20+ (faulty battery in multimeter) but now its on 15.9v, the max it should go to is 16.2v as per the manual. I'll provide an update once hopefully it's actually fully charged and in float mode. Waiting for it to go to 16.2v and not higher and see what happens. What I suspect has happened is that even though it's not an old battery, I did leave the car turned off for almost 4 weeks at one point then left it off for another 2 weeks which might have erroded the battery and is taking a long time to do this equlisation charge.
