How did your car handle with this suspension setup. Comfy or bumpy ride? Much of a drop over stock ride height?

felt good, some of the roads near where i live are pritty rough and it handle nice and firm on the road (not hard like coilovers, and it wasnt like steering a sail boat). i dont know about the stock ride high i think that there was aboot 3 or 4cm's from the gaurd to the wheel?

hope that helped :P

For those interested, I have KYB shocks on the rear on mine, they do a great job, still nice and firm, but give way for those nasty bumps (I live around shitty roads, I know all about bumps and pot holes).

The real squats nicely when giving it a bit and compensates enough to prevent wheelspin, but doesn't feel like a total boat on the corners. It's like a new skyline straight off the factory floor as the original setup was from KYB.

Hope this gives you an idea of how they fair, mine has been on for ~6,000km now and don't miss a beat. Also, mine is standard height.

Cheers,

Ben

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
