hi I'm interested in the XD-16 gauge. Are you willing to sell it separately along with its hardware (cables, faces, etc)? that's only if you do ship internationally! Please let me know. Regards,

hi buddy, I'll check the distance from the center of the wheel's center cap to the outer guard. but just to make sure, by saying the outer guard, you mean the fender's bow line above the tires (finder lip), right? cheers

Hi, sorry for being late, I did fit the kit to my GTR. I did some drive test on various streets to see how those coilovers respond. I got them lowered to the end in three corners, the rear right corner will get lower than the rest if it's lowered to the end, I don't know why, maybe it's something in my car !!! or it's common in all BNR32 with those coilovers !!! I'm not sure. anyway, I couldn't do a 100% accurate measurement to all corners height, it was done using a regular foot measurement tool. regarding height of the car, you won't be able to completely drop it to the ground, but it's more than enough for normal street use. if it's lower than that, I might suffer when facing any speed control pump on the road. furthermore, I like how my car looks on that height level. I've tested the drive on different street condition, and different speeds. in all cases, the drive was really comfortable with very minor bouncing comparing with other stiff coilovers. on normal streets, when I go on relatively normal speed, say 75 - 80 km, drive is smooth with nothing to mark. if I exceed that speed to more than 95 km, drive still smooth, but when I hit a pumpy spot on the road, or to be more specific, when there is a big sharp difference in road height, the front tires slightly touch the inner fender covers. however, I haven't had the chance to play with the damping force level yet. I think it might make a difference on other damping level. on highways, I reached a speed of 195 km and the drive is comfortable and stable. body rollover. the old kit I've removed was stiffer, so now I have some body rollover. not like the OEM dampers, but its there. however, as I mentioned, damping force still untouched. and I don't know what damping level I have now. it's because I had a water leak underneath the intake manifold and I had to take my car to the workshop and get it fixed. that thing had interrupted the testing process nowadays, I'm taking the car again to the workshop to complete the project and put the rest of the parts. going serious with the GTK 850 turbo, full modified fuel system, AEM EMS,,, etc. when I have the chance to play with the damping force, I'll let you know.

latest update, I got a good deal on a new Tein Super Street kit from Amber Performance. I found them on ebay. I bought that kit and it should be in the way. I'll let you know how it goes when I fit it to my car. cheers.

by the way, is there any part number or model name that I have to search for? I mean, there are more than model Bilstien produces. which one would suit street racing?

I did check the Bilstein website few days ago, it seems that they don't have GTR shocks at the mean time (as the message on their website indicates). however, no harm to contact them. I'll try to call them and check again, maybe they can supply some shocks in reasonable time. I'll see how it goes, it's eaither the Bilsteins, or the Super Street Teins. I'll let you know guys thanks a lot for sharing all openions and information, greatly appreciated. cheers.

Honestly, after checking all of the choices and prices, the best as I can imagine would be as what Todd replied here in this topic, Bilsteins & Eibach. I tried to locate some dealers for the bilsteins, but it’s too hard to find a dealer who sells Skylines’ Bilsteins. I found some vendors couple of days ago, but their prices are too much. 50,000 to 80,000 kms is reasonable, isn’t it !!

I wish we have a track so the monoflex isn't the best choice for what I'm planning to do, since it's not comfortable on streets, and I won't have the chance to hit any track. choices are narrowed to Bilstein, Tein Super Street, and HKS Drag (found a used set for sale) I'll be searching for info about the HKS Drag set, however, your feedback is most welcome cheers,

well, after having a look over coilovers prices, I would include any dampers into the list again. that damn japanese yen is not getting any lower, everyday it's higher and fkin drier currency exchange rates kills me. difference in prices around %30-35 increased!! is it possible to use my Teins' springs and fit them on a set of different brand shocks? or, maybe someone here have a second hand set of coilovers and wants to sell it!! cheers.

hey mate, would you please tell me waht springs rate you have on those monoflex? and how is the ride on pumpy streets? how long you have them on your GTS? I would really appreciate a clarification about the difference between the twin tube and the monotube. which one is better, and used for which type of driving. hello, if Bilstein is not hight adjustable, then it's out of my list. is the set you have hight adjustable?

Hi Roy, did you put into considration that the car will be driven only on normal streets? I mean, don't you think that Monoflex is more than what you would need on normal streets? cheers,

Hi Greg, how much would it cost? and how much time you think it'll last before leaking its oil? I mean, is it good quality for street useage? cheers.

I think I've seen that topic. I checked the latest replys and it seems that SK runs into huge back orders!! some of the members "as they posted" make the payment and waited for months !! I'm located at Saudi Arabia.

rebuilt is not an option for me. I already have a set of old Teins, the two rears are done leaking all of the oil if I'll send the 4 shocks to Tein and get them overhauled, it might cost me more than AU $1,200 due to the shipping cost for a round trip. so, whats the point!! it's better to get a new set with new technology. no doubts mate, I'll have the power soon in my car, but I don't have a racing track to push that power on it. ok, is there a group buying Bilstein? any link to that topic? I would like to take a look over the prices and possibility of shipping a set overseas to me. and by the way, where are bilsteins made at? keep sharing yuor openions guys, I'd like to see what other options I have. and hey, thank you all for passing by my topic and sharing your ideas.

Hello, most of the topics here and in the Internet talk about how good a coilovers brand on a track. I'm worried about quality and reliability. that is due to difficulties and too high expenses to overhaul coilovers in the country I live in. actually, I'll have to ship overseas in order to get them fixed, and that costs a fortune. I'm looking for a coilover set that will last long. I'll be using my car on normal streets, no track racing at all. sure I want to add some handling control and lower my car, but I mainly care about ride comfort, durability of the suspension, and hight and damper adjustability. my car is planned to have 650 whp after completing my project. so, which brand you think better, or which brand you have experience with and is durable? and which spring rate? HKS hipermax III, Tein, Zeal, Tanabe, Megan, Ksport, G4, D2, Silkroad, Bielstein, JC-Project, Croxx, Apexi, etc. you're most welcome to add any suggested brand among those. your openions and recommendations are highly appreciated as decision to choose a brand got me in a whirlwind! cheers,

no problem,,

well, if you sell them these coming weeks, you still can use the apexi's if you don't mind, please check your PM. regards,

Hi, do you still have the Teins HA for sale? if yes, what's their condition? any oil leak? please send me some pics of them. cheers.

Hi, I know I'm little bit late, but, are those still available for sale? regards,

any comment???????????

Hi, Does anyone have experience with them? anyone tried them and would like to share his opinion!! Are they good quality products? How would you rate them? Where are they made at? Cheers.

PM sent

Hi rowdy, do you ship internationally? I'm interested in a set of the coilovers. regards,

Hi brother, did you find any shop that sells new factory parts? or at least second hand? i need some parts, if you can help me getting them, i would highly appreciate it.

what brand is it?
