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.

    • Also, I logged some data from the ECU for each session (mostly oil pressures and various temps, but also speed, revs etc, can't believe I forgot accelerator position). The Ecutek data loads nicely to datazap, I got good data from sessions 2, 3 and 4: https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-2?log=0&data=7 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-3?log=0&data=6 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-4?log=0&data=6 Each session is cut into 3 files but loaded together, you can change between them in the top left. As the test sessions are mostly about the car, not me, I basically start by checking the oil pressure (good, or at least consistent all day). These have an electrically controlled oil pump which targets 25psi(!) at low load and 50 at high. I'm running a much thicker oil than recommended by nissan (they said 0w20, I'm running 10w40) so its a little higher. The main thing is that it doesn't drop too far, eg in the long left hand fish hook, or under brakes so I know I'm not getting oil surge. Good start. Then Oil and Coolant temp, plus intercooler and intake temps, like this: Keeping in mind ambient was about 5o at session 2, I'd say the oil temp is good. The coolant temp as OK but a big worry for hot days (it was getting to 110 back in Feb when it was 35o) so I need to keep addressing that. The water to air intercooler is working totally backwards where we get 5o air in the intake, squish/warm it in the turbos (unknown temp) then run it through the intercoolers which are say 65o max in this case, then the result is 20o air into the engine......the day was too atypical to draw a conclusion on that I think, in the united states of freedom they do a lot of upsizing the intercooler and heat exchanger cores to get those temps down but they were OK this time. The other interesting (but not concerning) part for me was the turbo speed vs boost graph: I circled an example from the main straight. With the tune boost peaks at around 18psi but it deliberately drops to about 14psi at redline because the turbos are tiny - they choke at high revs and just create more heat than power if you run them hard all the way. But you can also see the turbo speed at the same time; it raises from about 180,000rpm to 210,000rpm which the boost falls....imagine the turbine speed if they held 18psi to redline. The wastegates are electrically controlled so there is a heap of logic about boost target, actual boost, delta etc etc but it all seems to work well
    • hahah when youtube subscribers are faster than my updates here. Yes some vid from the day is up, here:  Note that as with all track day videos it is boring watching after the bloopers at the start.  The off was a genuine surprise to me, I've literally done a thousand laps around the place and I've never had instability there; basically it rolled into oversteer, slipped, gripped and spat me out. On the way off I mowed down one of the instructor's cones and it sat there all day looking at me with accusing cone eyes as I drove past. 1:13:20 was my fastest lap, and it was in the second session, 3rd lap.  It (or me!) got slower throughout the day as it got hotter.      
    • It sounds like you want what the Toyota Landcruisers have for their roof racks. Wanna know what you end up with? Rust holes in the roof, and water everywhere...
    • Discovered today that if I select reverse first and take my foot off the brake, then select drive, the drive indicator light works and so does the tiptronic gear indicator. 
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Does anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
