I Need New Gts-4 Shocks! Advice!
bretto1588 replied to bretto1588's topic in Naturally Aspirated Performance
lol i know guys this is just getting to hard lol, but i will prevail lol. atm i have new springs all round and kybs just on the rear, the front stock shocks were still pretty good so im hopin they hold up alright for awhile cause im saving for some coilovers, they solve all problems lol. i was kinda just hoping there would be a simple solution to this but i guess there isnt lol, and i know any gtr gear they would just charge a shitload for it anyways lol cheers -

the actual shock is about an inch too long and cause of that the bumb stops dont fit and the screw thread on the end sticks up too far into the engine bay and the bonnet doesnt shut lol, basically lol. where ur's any special type of kyb shock? -

i think there closer to the gtr shocks cause their awd too, unlike the gtst which are rear wheel drive anybody know how much they would be? thanks -
hey guys, i recently bought my r33 gts-4 and ive been working out what i need to get fixed, my mechanic mate had a good look over it and got some prices together for me. well the first problem he said was the shocks were screwed so he did some ringing around and he was being told by the manufacturers that no one makes new shocks for the gts-4, apparently the awd set up is heaps different and the only shocks u could put on it would be high performance racing ones, is this true? he got some quotes for 2-3 thousand and i just went nuts lol considering i only paid 3 grand for the car itself lol well thats my story guys, any advice on what to do next or anyone who might have some decent shocks lying around would be greatly appreciated. cheers
