Hi,

Sorry, I dont have pic of the car when these were on it. But when I asked my suspension dealer to put in the new one (Tein SS). I asked him to set the exactly same height as when the HKS was in there. Because I liked it the most, good look/handling and able to go through speed bumps and drive way no problem.

I should be able to give you a photo of my car with the Tein SS since it will be the same height as the HKS one sometime tomorrow morning since it is dark already.

I roughly measured it and it was about 330mm Front and 335mm rear. (from centre of wheel to guard). (Although if you want a more exact measurement, let me know)

The HKS one is definitely very sharp and precise in handling. Kinda like in a go kart, gives you great feel of the road compare to the Tein SS Jap spec. However, it is quite firm and it is suited much better on tracks than the Tein SS. I been driving my car everyday for 2-3 months with those no problem, kinda got used to it. But the passengers I take find them fairly bumpy.

The Tein SS is also very good on the road, but it lacks the go kart feel and thrills of the HKS one. However, as I am driving this car everyday to work along a crappy and bumpy road in SA's northern suburb, I think the Tein SS is much more suitable for me.

Hi, These are the pictures I just took in the morning.

Hopefully will give people how it looks in the car.

Sorry, I dont really want to seperate it, so it will sell as a set of 4.

Also I think shipping to Melbourne will be around $60 - $100. (not sure, just guessing) Since it is relatively heavy. But if you can PM me the postcode I can give you a more accurate quote.

I havent adjust the height of the car, since I liked the height personally and it does the job going through speed bumps and drive ways. I dont know if these coilovers are height adjustable or not.

Edit: I searched the net regarding the HKS coilovers and found that it should be height adjustable. But I do not have the tools for it. So i guess you will have to take it to a workshop that do HKS coils to get them to set up the height.

I've got some PMs regarding the condition of the coilovers.

So I guess, I just post it here for an update.

My 1999 R34 GTT has done 40,000 km. So I am assuming the previous owner swapped it out around 20,000 km. Then the coilover should be around 15k-20k.

They dont seem to be that old, and still in reasonable condition.

Hi,

For people that Pm'ed me enquiring shipping costs.

I just had a quick quote for the following locations:

Sydney metro= about $55

Melbourne metro= about $45

Perth metro = about $70

Brisbane metro = $55

Those are registered shipping, but not insured.

Insurance would be about $10-15 on top of the price.

Help that give people a better idea of the shipping costs.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
