Is there anywhere in Perth that can put shock absorbers on a dyno to get a read out?

Wilkinson? WA Suspension?

How much do they cost for a set of 4 and what do you get?

What sort of shock do you have?

There is no point, for example taking your Bilsteins to WA Suspensions as they don't deal with them.

Cost?

Don't know.

What do you get?

A graph. Which will be useless to you if you don't know how to read it or what you want.

I was thinking, the idea was I would have the graph so I can learn to read it,

gotta start somewhere right?

Been reading this article it has some valid points:

http://farnorthracing.com/autocross_secrets6.html

Since its just a dyno run, does it really matter what kind of shock I have?

I just want to know what the adjuster knob is doing, not looking to get the shock rebuilt.

I wonder why I didnt think of calling them ahahhaha :D

Guess I was after recommendations more than anything

Slighty incorrect. We at WA Suspensions do deal with Bilstein.

We do have the shock dyno which we would be happy to dyno, and give you graph of the result. What sort of information are you trying to get? Maybe another way?

I am in Darwin until the 9th of july. If you want, you are more than welcome to give me a call, or in the mean time PM me and ill respond when i can.

Cheers

Brad

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
