Hi Guys,

Just wondering if any of you have done any suspension work to your cars to help them handle better on the road/track.

I have some real concerns that after i do my RB25/30 swap, the front is going to be a lot heavier and understeer a lot more (that is... if the car ever gets traction)

So far i have the following (suspension wise)

Front:

  • height adjustable shocks (C210 i believe)
  • Whiteline BDF33 swaybar
  • Whiteline SPF1224K bushes

Rear:

  • Munroe GT shocks
  • Whiteline BDR5 swaybar

Depending on what size rims that i get (hopefully 15/16" watanabe if i EVER find some), i will lower the car accordingly.

The swaybars go on over christmas, i will make sure i get some install pictures as i go and post on here :)

I am also looking at slotting the rear suspension member to allow for adjustment (as previously mentioned on here), is there any point getting a set of front adjustable camber tops made up for the car? are they expensive to make/fit?

anyone else done any handling mods? i have to confess i am certainly no handling expert, and it seems to get one to work on your car involves a lot of testing and $$$$. do any of the 1600 suspension principals carry over (since they ae similar setups)?

Hi guys,

Remember this is from the export model parts manual. Matches up with what Kyteler says.

I had a dig through a 1975 Japanese C110 parts CD, includes the KPGC110 but no paint info I could identify :( Tried the sales brochure too....still couldn't see anything to do with paint identity.

There are a lot of pictures around of genuine KPGC110's in red. I see KYOSHO is releasing 1/18 scale versions in red, silver or white, and if their previous efforts with Nissans is anything to go by they should be quite accurate with colour matching, so maybe one of these in red could be a reasonable reference?

Jim.

OK, I can now confirm 163 is the correct colour code for the GT-R red. The GT-Rs didn't get unique colours, just restricted, according to this information I found. Attached is a picture (poor quality, sorry, my good camera has run out of batteries) from a reproduction of the KPGC110 service manual (thanks to Alan Thomas). I added some clearer text of the actual numbers for readability!

Cross referencing with the scan Jim posted (thanks Jim!) we can see that 258 is silver and 024 is white. So there we go!
