They do custom? Are they anygood? I thought kmac did dodgy shit that VN owners bought?

Well with a heating torch & a pipe bender you can be your very own custom sway bar manufacturer... Have a look at the current whiteline cattledog. You will see that there isn't alot of science in it.

for some reason i can't find extra heavy duty r32 gtst front sway bars on whiteline (somethnig >24mm) whats the story, cause they have extra heavy duty for r33s etc

anyone know which ones are interchangible? (i know r32 gtr and r32 gtst rears are)

Yeah Kmac do custom...i have them on mine....27 up front atm...and 20 at rear. But they f**ked up the oreder first time....took me 3 months to get the first set. and they were totally wrong, so i sent my original down with the set and they remade them, i still havent recieved my old ones back yet. As for performance, they seem to hold the car well, need a thicker back one i think, but shit house service, and an good bar, i havent used whiteline so i cant compare them.

Oh and i just got non adjustable swaybars too, they do, do some really good adjustable ones apparantly.

Whiteline can make the cars for you, just depends if they want to, in their catoluges they have up to 34 or something mm thick bars. 24mm is the biggest standard line they do though.

I'm looking at around 7/8" or 22mm? soild bar.... Idealy bigger but I need to talk to someone to confirm 1st. Do I just call kmac number on the site? or does someone have hook ups?

Just call the number on the site. I dealt with Kevin, i think he was the manager.

go talk to steve, at pedder maroochydore, he is in the process of getting a custom sway bar made for my bosses daughter's mustang. the one that came with it was broken apparently. so he mite be able to help ya in getting something customized. worth a shot.

Or PM sydney kid on here and ask him if he knows anybody who could maybe help ya since he does all the suspension stuff on here he mite have the contacts you are after.

Steve can go f**k him self, for legal reasons I will not make mention of what happened over the internet, however he better think himself lucky I didn’t take the matter further.

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
