Hi guys,

I'm selling my Tein RA coil overs to suit BNR32 GTR. They are in top condition, no bends, damage, rust, leaking anything. Spring rates are 10K front and rear.

RA is teins top of the line shock without going remote canister. These feature an all alloy shock body, mono tube shocks with large pistons and 16 level damper adjustment, full length height adjustment and compatible with EDFC. these are currently used by many of the top street/circuit GTRs in both Aus and Japan. I know a few of the quickest GTRs in VIC are using these.

Here is what Tein say about them:

TEIN Type RA has been designed for advanced circuit racing and street use for experienced drivers.

It incorporates a newly designed mono-tube structure, which allows for maximum road handling and driving stability for all type of situations.

This product has been developed from a huge background of TEIN motor sports activities (such as the World Rally Championship,

N1 and endurance racing).

* Mono-tube design for maximum performance.

* Constructed of A7050 aluminum for lightweight (on certain applications).

* Strut type suspension has an inverted steel shock absorber for durability.

* 16 levels of damping force adjustment (compression and rebound together).

* Ride height adjustable.

* Exclusive designed pillow ball upper mount for optimize performance.

* Available for overhaul.

I'm asking $2100 + freight (about $40 to most areas of aus) and pickup is available in sydney, chatswood.

I only have one pic at work, but will take and post some more later. I was going to use these for my GTR but I'm now going to persevere with the set-up I have (nismo/ohlins) and I need some money, no point having mega dollar shocks sitting in my laundry. I can also supply with them a brand new Tein EDFC mark 2 (black instead of the old silver, and with faster acting, yet lighter motors) for an extra $420.

PICS BELOW

I have been slack buy I'll take more pics tonight. if I can't get good money for them I'll use them and flog my ohlins instead. :)

just pulled them out of the cupboard. I'd forgotten this from when I bought them but the front are BRAND NEW shocks and the rears only fairly limited use. so price stays firm. I took some pics last night and will upload later.

like I said, the front shocks are brand new, the only time they've even been near a car is when they were in the boot!

ok, drop the price to $2000. very cheap for top shelf alloy body, mono tube coil-overs.

the previous owner says 1 year, 5,000kms but I don't know for sure. they are not rusty, or leaking, or bent. a couple of the threads are damaged a bit but it's way up near the top where you would never have the spring seats, I have NFI how they got like that. you can see both the fronts and rears in the pics and should be able to judge condition fairly well from that. the rears have the fork on the bottom, fronts have the eye. :rolleyes: hth.

these look very good for the price.....

Have any of you guys seen the suspension set up on a p4/5 pininfarina??? They look so sexy!!!!!!!!! ooooooooooooooogggggghhhhhhhhh thinking of it now!!!!!!!!

thanks for the kinds words, but not more posts please. this isn't a suspension discussion thread, just me trying to sell my Tein RAs thread. :woot:

man these are harder to shift than a kidney stone! I'll now accept $1800.

I really can't go lower than that. Otherwise I'd rather just hang on to them as a spare set for the GTR. :laugh:

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
