hey guys.. had a bit of a search, but couldnt find anything dirrectly towards my question... maybe i just cant search properly :(

anyhow

im looking for a set of coilovers to put into my car (93' R32 gts-4)... ive got a budget of around $1500

preferably im looking for brand new, as ive heard alot of second hand stuff needs rebuilding due to leaking shocks, nd that leeds me to my second dillemma.. if i were to need a rebuild i'd want to have ample local support ... that is why i went to local brand name Hotbits... ive heard good things about them, and with the added bonus of having them close by if anything goes wrong.. as aposed to a jap brand system...

only problem is.. hotbits want $2500 for thier damper and height adjustable setup ... which is a good $1000 out of my price range....

can anyone suggest a locally made/supported suspension company that would have a nice setup in my price range ($1500ish) that has adjustable height and damper and that isnt too harsh (hence why im looking for adjustable damper)

thanks

-Mark

Try SydneyKid's suspension set-up, he has spent plenty of time organising, testing and tuning suspension kits to suit R32's, R33's and R34's (including all the GT-R's) as well as Stagea's. He used WhiteLine springs, stabilizer bars, etc., and Bilstein shocks. He even recommends other bits to fine-tune it, as well as providing details of settings for camber, castor, toe, etc.

The ones suited for R-32's are here...

Hey mate,

From experience, I had a set of Tein Super Streets (the ones that are built in conjunction with Fulcrum Suspensions) fitted all around for $1750 (for the coilovers) and $250 on fitting. They are ride height adjustable and have a 16 way damper. Contrary to popular belief, they are very good for Australian conditions and provide a firm yet realistic ride. They are also fully rebuildable by Fulcrum (located in Brisbane i think). It worth considering them if you dont mind the extra $500 ontop of your budget.

Cheers

Ruffels,

I have a set of Tein (by Fulcrum) for sale if U want them. They've done less than 8000 kays and I want $1350 for them. I removed then from the car so I could recoup some of the $1950 bucks they cost.

They are in perfect condition. On the car for less than 9 months. The car was a weekend car only.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
