R33 Gtr Shock Absorbers

[Mid_Nite_R33]

hey guys,

Was fitting lowered springs onto my R33 gtst series 2 the other day and while changing the springs the front shocks leaked a huge amount of oil of a sudden, they never caused a problem. anyway there obviously stuffed now and the car handles like a boat,

any idea if R33 GTR shocks would fit as a replacement?

any help would be appreciated.

the fronts do, the rears dont...rears have different lower mounts.

NO

NO

I only need replacement front shocks, as the fronts leaked bad and now dont do anything in terms of absorbing anything,

so fronts of a ## GTR definately fit R33 gtst?

Yes they will “fit” as in bolt on. But an R33GTR is around 180 kgs heavier than a R33GTST over the front wheels and as a result have different spring rates and heights. Plus the damper rates will be wrong.

So they will “fit”, but they won’t “work” properly.

cheers

But as Charlie found the fronts are too short for an R34 GTt. Sure these will be long enough for the 25t SK? I was told they'd fit the GTt too but now, unless I see with mine own eyes I won't confirm they do.
