As the title indicates, i'm interested in getting a set. Has anyone here had any experience with the Buddy Club Junior spec suspension for the R32 GTR. If you dont own a GTR but have still used the suspension in a skyline your comments would appreciated. Good??? Bad??? Any other reccomendations of similar spec(spring rates and adjustment level).Thanks.

Havnt used it..

but have held it.. Quality is excellent and seems like a fair bit of adjustment too..

I really dont think you will be dissapointed..

Dont get the top of range one- more suited for track work to be honest

Got the Buddy Clubs in and they feel pretty good. Not as comfy on the road as the Bilstein/Eibach but that was to be expected. Quality is very good. Spring rates are 10k front and 8k rear, although i have had to wind quite a bit of preload into the fronts to stop bottoming out when cornering as there was only 35mm of travel(with 10mm of bump stop cut from the front). Rear is fine. Have managed to get about 50mm of bump travel into the front end and will see how it goes at QR in a couple of weeks.

So far i am pleased with them, but they are most definitely not for a daily driver.

      Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out

      Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.

      Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.

      Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.

      For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
