My questions are :

1. Were these factory fitted to all R34 GTT's or were they an option?

2. Is it possible to lower my car say an inch and retain these coilovers? and implications of this.

3. simple question, from your knowledge are they any good? e.g. how do they compare to the whiteline bilstein gtt package?

Thanks again fellas,

Howie

Hi Howie, from memory the R34GTT Nismo Bilstein option was 15 mm lower than standard, similar height to an R34GTR. You can have the additional circlip grooves added (same as the Group Buy) if you want to go a little lower. I would suggest 3 grooves at 8 mm apart as a maximum. That will give you the potential to go down 24 mm from where they are now (ie; 39 mm lower than standard). They handle best around 350 mm front and 340 mm rear (ie; 30 mm down from standard). So the second additional groove would be the go.

If you want to go that low you will need camber kits, so please keep the following in mind when lowering yours. This is what is usually needed for each height increment, note that all measurements are centre of wheel to guard;

Standard (new) height is 380 mm front and 370 mm rear

360/350 mm needs only the standard rear camber adjusters

350/340 mm needs 1 front camber kit and 1 rear camber kit

340/330 mm needs I front camber kit and 2 rear camber kits

:( cheers :(

Hi Howie & Sydneykid

I am looking for the exact shocks for my GTT for quite sometime already but i don't have the part number for it. Any chance of checking them for me cause my local distributor is kinda lame & don't cater much to Skylines. Heard that with matching Eibach springs the car will handle better with the Bilstein combo shocks.

Many thanks in advance mates...

I can arrange a set for you through the Group Buy at retail minus ~15%, freight is free to wherever you want. Some things you need to know:

1. There is no "off the shelf" kit for an R34GTT

2. There is an "off the shelf" kit for the R33GTR and R34GTR

3. You will need a spring change to the R33/34GTR kit to suite the R34GTT (I know what rates to use)

4. The shock valving will accommodate the spring change (I have checked it on the shock dyno)

5. There is no stock in Australia, they are airfreighted in from Germany on payment of a 100% deposit

6. The springs used are made by Eibach for Bilstein (they have Bilstein signage)

7. The R34GTT springs are Eibachs

8. The kit is not cheap, especialy when you add the costs of the R34GTT Eibach springs

The above is why your local distributor is not all that interested.

PM me if you want to proceed or would like more details.

:( cheers :(

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
