Recommended Suspension Place + Workshop 4 Major Service, Preferably Liverpool/fairfield Way

[OnAhigh]

Hey guys yes i did search but i thought someone might point me the right direction.

Well to cut the story short i had a date with a kerb last night after loosing control in the wet (no flamming please).

Now im not very familiar with suspension components and such but both passenger sides hit the curb, back wheel is buckled and looks like the control arms, joints even shockings are out of whack. Any one reccommend a supspension joint or even workshop/mechanic in the know about these things so i can get a quote of repairs and see if its worth going through insurance. or if the damage is worse than it looks. Got a day off tommorow so would like to get it out of the way then.

quick pic i managed to get dont know if you can make much of it

cheers

thanks mate, but my car wont make it to minto lol . gonna get midas to look at it for the time being

[OnAhigh]

well took it to midas as they were the closet place to me that was avaliable.

have to replace rear control arm, front swaybar. then after wheel alignment there gonna have another inspection see if anything else damaged

[Nismo_God]

buddy look on here for the part, lower control arm. bought one for $40 from some guy who was wrecking his car. cost me $60 from midas to get it fitted. then $50 for a wheel alignment. All done. Hardest part will be finding the part, but have a look on the for sale section for ppl wrecking their car.

wish i would of seen this sooner, lol paying alot more than that now as is. but they managed to find a new control arm and front sway bar. i didnt really have much choice as the car wasnt driveable

[OnAhigh]

well car is all good, camber is out bout half a degree, on the right side but nothing major. Now its time to change the front rotors as they are fudged.

any one recommend any cheap places to buy some replacement rotors?

also should i just buy standard all got slotted? cross drilled? and last does anyone have part numbers avaliable saves the guys at the shop from stuffing around trying to look for the ones i need. by the way the car is a 1993 r32gtst m spec

cheers

go to heasmans, they reall know their stuff. diagnosed a worn ball joint on the lower control arm in like 5 minutes of looking around on my friend's car.

PS: what were you thinking driving around with tyres like that? You're lucky you didn't run into someone otherwise, guaranteed, your inurance wouldn't have paid out

[OnAhigh]

where are they located champ? the tyres got like that after the accident mate

all good got it fixed yesterday, and got two tyres while i was at it. can anyone help me with the query a few posts up

[OnAhigh]

Bit of an update i fear i might have chasis damage from either this accident or one from previous accident which i dont know about. Can anyone point me in the right direction to someone who can check my chasis and see if its bent or not

cheers

[OnAhigh]

anyone?

jack it up and have a look, it may show as a slight fattening of the rail, as it was squished a bit. If you think its only out the tiniest bit and you cant see it, then its probably not out. You should be able to see any damage on the rail. If your reo bar at the front is gone you are more likely to have a bit of warping after an accident

if your car is crabbing, check that it had a 4 wheel alignment if its hicas equipped, this is common to a few r32's ive seen. get a lock bar to fix the rear settings permanently or make sure there are no leaks in the system if you want to keep it, as low fluid makes it do wierd things too even at low speeds.

[OnAhigh]

Thanks mate, will def the hicas and fluids. Got four wheel alignment today, rear is pushed back slightly, front was out by 4mm they did the best to fix it. back and front tire werent on properly. he said if i get front castor rods that will help to adjust the front. Well after driving it today i can say it is 10times better thats for sure. But i still havent been on the hume highway cause that road is screwed and where it happened most

[OnAhigh]

while im here instead of starting a new thread. Im coming up to my 100,000 service now ive searched already and have gathered a list of most parts that need to replaced. Any one reccomend any workshop to do a major service to my 32gtst? Around the liverpool/fairfield area but will travel if workshop comes reccomended/reasonably priced aswell.
