Question For R33 Skyline Tein Coilovers

[rami]

use will probably say im stupid for 2 things... 1 for not searching and 2 for not knowing..

1)

well it is the first time ive owned a nissan.. and plus theres alot of things i do have to learn about skylines etc..

2) i couldnt find any topics on adjusting heights...

my skyline has adjustable coilovers.. i want to know how i can lower it only at the back as it is a bit too high... how do i do it..? do i need a special tool etc etc.. if neone knows something let us know! thanks guys

What type of Tien you got?

though I think its should be similar.

To adjust the height,

You need to jack the car up!

take the wheels off,

the hubs out as well,

then you get to the suspension!

and you wind the screw up! you need a special C spanner!

If u take the wheels off,

i think you will know what i mean!

hope that helps!

lol... well i did take the wheel off... and i dont think the hub has to come off... the part that looks ajustable.. is further up where the coils are.. is that right? or am i looking at the wrong thing? it has 2 different winds right on eachother.. i tried to screw them up/down they wont moove...?? was i looking at the right thing.. and then someone told me u need a special tool so i just left it

Use a shit load of WD40 all over the thread and the adjuster bit itself.

You'll notice there are two spinny thingos. The bottom one locks the top one, so the first move you need to make is crack the bottom one so it moves down. You can then move the top one.

If you dont have the right tool i guess you can use a wrench. I dont have the tool for my Apexi's so we used a wrench, a hammer, a flat head screw driver and our hands and it worked fine.

Can I make a suggestion that you might not be happy with.

Take it to a suspension place and get them to teach you how to do it and what you should be adjusting to etc

I only have stock suspension and know next to nothing about teins but I wouldn't dream of touching something that important without knowing a fair bit about it.

talk to fulcrum in QLD, they are very helpful and are the australian distributors...
