Hey guys.

I'm planning to sell my e39 and get some proper car to play with, a manual RB20DET spec'd c33 Laurel came up as an option.

So, the question is, what are these beasts? I've done a search and found out:
Enigne - r32 GTST everything bolts on.
Suspension - S13 everything bolts on, standard s13 shocks and springs will lower a s33 by about 40mm. So, what coilovers, S13, S14? The one I'm looking at already has some D2 coilovers installed, are they any good? And yeah, the front suspension is S-body McPherson type, so mucho luck is possible?

So, basically, are they good? The one I'm looking at has r20det with sr 'box, some adjustable arms, d2 drift spec coilovers, 4.1 2way, 5stud + brakes from turbo r33, polyurethane bushes, locked hicas, slightly uprated engine stuff like gtr injectors, remap, aftermarket turbo, bosch 044 fuel pump, fmic, exhaust and other nice little bits. The interior is laso sorted, chargespeed bucket seat, some gauges and everything (plus it's BROWN, which is fucking awesome).

So, is it worth the hassle?
 
Sid ran one for a season, they're fucking badass. See what he thought as few other people in the UK have used one properly.
 
Properly nice cars, s13 suspension fits, Sid had a full s13 rear subframe on his.

The only issue you'll have obviously is bodywork, if you bash something it becomes an issue. Lovely car to drift though, when his had the original RB20 with stock turbo set up it was really nice and smooth.
 
I had one for a few years and I'm gutted I sold it!!!
I got it standard and fitted much the same as the above post....
