coilovers arrived friday, and fitted them to kylies car yesterday.

they feel firmer, but not uncomfortable, corners without feeling like its going to barrel roll off the road, but best of all its not lift kit spec anymore... it now scrapes on speed bumps, etc!

just be careful though, if you order some, specify they have a 90mm PCD rear top hat, as we got sent the wrong top hats, and i had to modify the top hats from the stock shocks onto them. (surely we dont have the first RS4 stagea with G4's??)

all up, for the smoother ride, lowered height, and better handling, it was well worth the $1399 they cost.

pics to follow shortly. :P

looks fantastic.

seems a good price - is that for adjustable shocks and springs ?

Im happy with my Bilsteins though.... very smooth ride using stnd springs

For the Ohlins suspension, jippa, IMO the brand is the best in the world when it comes to adjustable shocks. definately servicable for sure. get em regassed and enjoy the ride.

fronts can be lowered another 30mm, and the rears about 200mm lower :pimpin:

And Dale I will make sure I bring my ACDC album just for you :thanks:

Fuzzy it handles really well. Alot tighter around the bends. If I still have the car in a few weeks I'll give you an update. If you do get them, just make sure you check the top hat dimensions in the rear. Mine is 90mm and its oval shaped. but apparently round will fit.

Jippa I have fallen in love with her again, but I'm kinda looking forward to a two door where I can reach the roof to wash her without standing on the rims or a bucket :banana:

when i got my rig the first time it was sitting at 355mm from the center of the hib to the guard. After i swap over to the TEIN HA coilovers i raised it all 4 wheels to 360mm and its perfect for me. Not too low ETC. And the ride is exceptinally good for it . Liked it very much. O would assume that the blisteind from SK will have a better ride though. I dont know about the G4s. Should ask how many chambers and valve they have in the shock absobers for the G4 and how many valve. The more chamber and valving you have the better the ride is. Firm but not hard when you have more chambers and valves. Less chanbers and valve will have a rougher ride. Thus the blistein will have better peformance.

I have a 4wd lancruiser 100 series and i swapped it over to the blisteinf from the original Toyota shock and alot of improvement in the ride and handling qualities.

I bought the blistein from our company's spare parts supploer and he said in his 25 years experience in his field not 1 person have asked for blistein shock absober until he met me!!

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
