guys wondering whether anyone has used king springs in their r32's? if so wat you think? what sizes/heights have u used...and how low was it? handling etc?

regards,

daniel

Kings make 2 lowering springs, what they call "Low" and "Super Low". Personally I wouldn't recommend the "Super Lows", they are too low and too high in the springs rates. "Lows" are OK, very similar to the Whiteline springs I used in the Group Buy Kits (350 mm front and 340 mm rear, centre of wheel to guard).

If you are thinking of using them with the standard shocks, I strongly suggest you have a read of this thread first.

ok well i got std springs in it now...but the nob that i bought it off cut the springs....so the car sits as follows

front from centre of cap to guard = 360mm

rear from centre of cap to guard = 320 mm

so as u can imagine the car sits a lil front high and rear heavy.

Im happy with the ride...handles well...gets a lil bouncy sum times...but eh

so can sum1 help me here....im just after springs for now...coz i cant afford a full suspension setup till prob another 6 months.

So after reading one of the replies....it looks like Kings spring lows just wont be low enough....

my main aim is to drop the front another 20mm and keep the rear as is....

so would king spring Superlows do it? or do SL's in the back and L's in the front...

any suggestions?

I put slightly trimmed super low king springs on my 33's standard shocks, ended up popping all the seals and leaking fluid. Shocks were sent to the tip and replaced with hks hypermax II coilovers :-)

      Update all   thanks to the workshop manual, it lead me back to checking fuses as mentioned central locking and door open lights worked when acc was switched on. diagram attached shows two points of power 1. ACC and 2.  Batt with the later being fused (#28) I did check the fuses using a multimeter but I must have stuffed that up also. Went back and checked the batt fuse in interior fuse box and you wouldn’t believe it… a blown fuse. replaced fuse and everything is now working as it should including the climate control   thank you all with your positive insight and knowledge.

      Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.

      I _think_ that one has a christmas tree or some other retainer spike into a hole in that panel under it. Come in under it with thin scredrivers and just pry it gently up. If you rip the ears off the retainer pin....so what? Just stick it back down after with a bit of race tape and carry on with life.
