tokyo : part 3

tokyo : part 2

woke up the next day feeling great and excited after last night mishap 

 parking space is very limited in a crowded area like shinjuku

 lounge suit,talking on the phone while riding the bicycle are a common thing here

 this is our house for a week,kinda small but its quite comfortable

 cute chicks on a bicycle,also a common thing~

 spotted a starlet glanza 

 shinjuku station is one of the biggest train station in tokyo. 

 first stop of the day, Daimon station

 we visited JAF and bought us some souvenir 

 classics century

still figuring our way out lol~

tokyo : part 1

 plan this trip few month back during february.

since then i was busy studying and planning places that i wanted to go. 

fast forward 7 month later, here i am with 2 of my buddies on board the plane to tokyo!

 8 hours later,we arrived at Haneda International Airport and its already almost 11pm (Japan is one hour earlier than Malaysia)

 first problem we encounter after we left the airport is how to use train ticketing machine haha.

 hey, i know that place~

 one thing that i learned during this trip, if possible avoid the train rush hour. its jammed packed and you will be like a sardine in a canned.
(8am,7pm-working days and 12midnight- last train service,everyday)

about one hour later we arrived at Okubo Station,west of shinjuku.

with only a map and address of the house,no internet,no telephone line, we got lost and manage to find the house 2 hours later.

ORT offset steering rack adapter installation

so most us know that the r32 have really small steering angle due to its double wishbone setup. since i cant afford to change to a McPhearson setup any time soon, i decided to get this instead

an offset steering rack adapter from ORT (u can get it from Drift House)

and while we are in the same topic,i also bought a pair of s13 adjustable tension rod and

a pair of r33 lower arm. 

(doesnt look much difference but its 10mm longer compare to the r32)

fast forward a few process,this is how the adapter position.straight and facing forward.if its position at 45 degree just change it to the other side. (the adapter got left and right side)

here is the subjective part,

in my case i have to re-thread the tie rod by 2cm (need to ask the machine shop to do it) and

cut the end by 2cm

for more angle purposed,u will also need to relocate the steering stopper on the lower arm (grind,reposition and weld) but im not gonna do that since i still use the car for daily.

here is the result of before and after.

i must say that is alot 

(mind that im using a GTR fender,it is more wide compare to GTS model and i havent done a proper alignment yet)

i hope this shitty post help you on how to install the ORT offset steering rack adapter on a r32. i think it also apply to other nissan chassis like 180sx, s13, A31, s14, r33
