G'day All,

As the topic suggests, I want to sell a set of Tein's currently on car. They are too stiff for my liking and despite handling a lot better, (especially around corners :( ) it's not really my thing.

Price update! $850 for the Teins

Located in SE Melbourne.

Cheers!

Oh, almost forgot, I would consider taking trades for somebody elses shockers and springs if they aren't as hard as these Tein ones. Would like pretty much the same ride height. ie, slightly lower than stock.

Oo Oo, maybe even for a set of 17' wheels. If anyone is keen. I'm cool on any price adjustments for the wheels,

Thanks.

Unfortunately in Melbourne. Hmmm, still keen, but how can we possibly work this out from a logistics point of view.

Can you tell me any more about your mates Gab suspensions? Stiffness, no. of kms, what car it came off etc etc.

Thanks

Jigga, sounds good. Well, if your friend in keen, please PM me with so that we can exchange details.

I think the greatest problem is going to be in shipping. How on earth are we going to swap, given that you're in a different state? Hmm, this could be interesting considering that they're still on the car.

Oh yeah, last question Jigga, why does your friend want to swap them?

Thanks jigga, I don't believe you can lower the car too much with my set. It may not be what he's after, if he's expecting something really low. It does lower the car, but I believe it was built for performance and handling rather than looks.

If on the otherhand he's after something really stiff, then I have the set for you. Hope this helps. But yeah, it its worth it, I can change the suspensions to my stockies if need be, Shipping should also be fine.

NRs aren't height or damper adjustable guys. I've got some on a 32. Nice ride though, not that harsh.

Camber adjustment on skylines is acheived by changing the length of the upper wishbone, not adjusting the position of the top of the spring.

Not that harsh :D

Shitty roads make for much bouncing. I've found that concrete roads with joints are the worst to drive on. You tend to drop off the edge of each section.

But I use the car daily for work and don't have any real issues with the stiffness of the springs.

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
