Hi

Just wanted to get a general feel for anyone who has coilovers in their R34 GTT or R33 GTST?

1)What brand and model are they?

2)What are the spring rates?

3)Are they noisy?

4)Is it a comfortable ride?

5)Hows the handling of the car?

6)How old are they and are they in need of repair or rebuild?

Thanks all! any help at all is much appreciated!

Ive got coilovers in the R33 GTST.

1) Apexi N1 Damper series or something

2) Couldnt tell ya as they came in the car, but they're friggin stiff, teeth shattering.

3) Nope

4) I wouldnt say its an uncomfortable ride because here in canberra the roads are friggin awesome, so its smooth.

5) Awesome!

6) Who knows? I think the owner in Japan installed them (for a pretty penny, apparently they are expensive.... anyone have an idea how much they would be? i'm interested to learn).

Sorry i couldnt be much help, they came in the car so im pretty clueless about the details.

Same, Got a 2nd hand Apexi Coilover R33 GTS T

- Apexi N1 damper, Type V height and damper adjustable.

- Spring rate is 360, but my rear springs has been replaced to softer springs to 290.

- No noise from 3, but bit of noise from 1 rear. Bearable. I think its aging

- Comfortable? depends how u set it?

- Handling is improved by far, conerning is much more stable.

- When bought, was told its in the car for less than 5000km, I think it still a long way for a rebuild, should last another 50000kms, I hope SOO.!!!! :/

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.

      Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).

      Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers

      Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
