nah piece o piss, have done it heaps of times, never had a customer complain... "ARRRRRRGGHHHHH!"*death* does not count as a complaint.

Yeah i saw the r33 one and i was like riiiiight... Pity the guy they sold it to.

Ps its a piece of piss to troubleshoot which coil it is. But if still original coils, worth changing all now anyway.

Have you tried it out yet though or judt theorizing at this point? For i found the kinugawa to be much stiffer and hold wastegate closed much better, so much i had to get a lower psi spring into it.

To avoid being flamed ypu should just do a bit more searching then come back with any q's ypu will find this sort of info already. And no u would ditch the standard solenoid and just use kinugawa gate. Although i use a kinugawa gate and greddy profec, but thats a different story to stock.

thing is though son, I know it sounds like, oh wow I'd be able to boost like, all the way up to 10 psi....but I found it made point-oh-shite all of difference and unless you get one for 10 bucks, not worth chasing down. I would suggest the adjustable kinugawa wastegate with the low-pressure spring, that will bolt on, give more responsive boost as well as some degree of adjustable boost control. They're only $100-something off ebay new.

I'm sure they CAN be, but....

More ants, from a rival neighbourhood.

actually just reading some of the other topics in this subforum...you may have a point...what IS going on there Terry?

maybe you didn 't read the thread title properly Birds or haven't seen the 80's classic 'Piranha" which was based on a true story (possibly)....them little fishes, they'll wreck ya

Are you moving to qld Terry? What's with all the pestilence-related questions..?

1 - would rather a zinger burger from KFC 2- would hazard a guess and say if it would work, 'they' would have done by now...

Good question!!!!! ! As per above. I don't know.

^^as above. The clue is in the T.

in Qld, call the Council and get them to send the fire ant dept out works a treat. But seriously I don't know. We used to get them around every now and then when I lived in the suburbs. The pest crews that is, not the ants.

if you haven't read 'the 4 hour body" by Tim Ferris and you're serious about making body shape/diet changes, I suggest you do. It's written so you don't even need to read the whole book, just the relevant section on what you're trying to achieve. Tried and tested for me, lot of usable info in there.

Thanks dude, you just made me $20 Let me know how you go after speaking to King, and no lying about it just to save face.

actually yeah you're right sorry, I forgot you sometimes speak fluent pompous-git mixed with some sort of inbred 18th-century coalminer dialect. as per defintion 1. affectedly grand, solemn, or self-important. "a pompous ass who pretends he knows everything"

By the way. I load tested them. They're 5.something kg/mm but they're not linear. load-of-bullshit tested them, more like. If you did actually test them then you fu*ked up the test; cos they're linear. nope. The diameter of the coils is irrelevant, it's how much they compress under load, eg a 6kg/mm spring compressing 1mm under 6kg of load. I know this to be fact, having specifically asked King Springs, MCA Suspension, BC Australia etc this question, when asking about any difference of spring rate between the wider springs found on stock suspension and the smaller diameter coils found on aftermarket coilovers. I'm surprised you didn't know that, being an engineer and all. pretty much yep, more a dual-rate spring rather than a true 'progressive' where the coil spacing more evenly changes top to bottom. You can see this on the Tein website where they list the different spring rates for the same springs. But still classed as a progressive spring.

Wtf does that even mean? Trying too hard to put too many words together.Agreed, most likely drifting/track, not that it matters either way. Keep the hicas bar if already fitted.

I won't waste any time on this; call king springs and ask their tech dept about the spring rate of their r33 springs (as I did when looking at buying a set of their springs a while back). Couldn't remember 100% which was linear but yes it is fronts, thanks for posting pic up gtsboy.

re yellow springs pictured, see how the coil spacing is even; they are linear. See on the red springs how the coils get closer together at the top; they are progressive.

Also from memory only 1 end of kings are progressive, other is linear, think its rears that are progressive?

Alot of people would prefer Not to have progressive rate springs for handling/performance purposes. I'd be surprised if the pedders weren't progressive anyway, u sure they're not?

Would do the bilstein shocks first, don't think there'd be alot between king and pedders springs once matched with decent shocks.
