Standard Shocks - People who know/have them HELP!!

[Jay95R33]

I need some help.

I've got some stock R33 GTS-t suspension which were missing a few bits.

Now I think I've got all the bits but I need to make sure I've assembled all the bits right !!

I don't want to put them in the car only to find out they knock and rattle cause I didn't assemble them right

If someone that has seen, or has stock shocks on their R33 GTS-t that can confirm the way they are put together, can have a look and see if it's right.

In this pic it's all assembled the way I think it should be !!

And in this picture all the bits are lined up in the order they are mounted - if it helps any....

Also (numb nut question of the day) the front and rear shocks are different sizes. Are the short shocks the front or the rear???

Thanks

That assembly sequence appears to be ok,....short struts to the front

Thanks heaps guys - your life savers :uh-huh: :uh-huh:

Just got to buy two more rubber bushes from Nissan (about $3 each) and then I'll be ready to look for some springs.

Oz Elite - nope, not me. I'm further down But it's more the right height that is a bit of a pain. The GTR front is really low, even with the car only 20mm lower than stock it's still only just legal.....

And if I wind the springs up on the JIC's it's just going to stiffen the ride up more. The JIC's would be great if your front spoiler doesn't come down as low as the GTR one does, or you didn't mind your car sitting at 10.5cm.. Maybe I'm getting too old?? LOL

So I'm going for stock shocks with 10mm lower progressive rate springs. It'll raise the car by 10mm and give this old man a boat like ride
