My front shocks on my R33 are basically shot through. So i am looking to replace them on all 4 corners. I dont want to spend too much but i want something a bit better than the factory setup which handles fairly ****. :confused:

SO

What prices am i looking at to get some decent shocks? Also might put some lowered springs on at the same time depending on price.

Have looked at the whiteline website and the sports pack sounds good but i think i want something a bit under $1500..... what prices am i looking at.

What are pedders prices like?

Wilkinson Suspension in Bayswater.

Agent for King Springs , Whiteline and a host of other.

Can custom build and is used by a lot of wanners guys.

tell him that Ken with the GTR's sent you and promised a good deal. Ask for Peter or Dale

Ken

For the right advice from someone who knows what they're talking about rather than a salesman AND the best price in town see Wilkinson suspension.

Ask for Peter tell him GTR Ken AND Chris R34 sent you:)

john @ wheels world isnt just a salesman, he knows what hes talking about. besides if you know what you want (set of new springs) it doesnt take a genuis to sort you out

Yes well i would go to John if he decided to reply to my email I sent him on Sunday..............

Again, I would say Wilkinson, I recently had some Bilstein Shocks installed all round and matching King Springs, made a huge difference to handling, cost me $1290 installed.

Daniel

Ahh, let me see $1290 or $1580 for the same thing. Hmm that's a hard decision.....

Ken

PS Don't get me wrong, Johns a top bloke and I bought my Simmons from him but Wilko is a suspension specialist

Hmmm a tough choice indeed.

Anyways im definatly shopping around to get a bargain.

Hmm actually called Wilkinson and they will install Bilstein shocks and king springs for $1270.... thats $20 less than yours Daniel :)

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
