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

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:)

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.

      R32 only blows hot air

      By Duncan · Posted

      Not really, but the heater box is pretty simple mechanically....if the door is one way the air bypasses the heater core and if it is the other way it goes through it for warm air.  If you are sure the actuator you moved manually is for the heater mix (there would also be one for output air direction) then I'd take the heater box out and see what is happening (you'll have to regass and re-coolant the systems afterwards) BTW pp724 onwards from the GTR workshop manual cover the system in good detail, it is probably worth checking. I think the IAT sensor might be a problem electrically for getting cold (if you got 24 error code not -24 it thinks the incoming air is -50c) and it covers how to test the sensor (although most likely it is either not plugged in or a wire is damaged)

      Use the GKTech subframe bush and bring your subframe 10mm closer to the chassis. You'll need to fix an exhaust hanger to suit. One of the best mods I've done.

      Wires cut underneath shifter cover

      You'd really have to pull it apart further to know, it least you can be confident that the one heading to the back is not connected any more. There was once a ground on the shifter seal mount too, your head unit issue could be that simple

      Perfect, I'll get to it this winter then at the same time as I weld on my anti squat kit.

      R32 only blows hot air

      By SeanR32GtSt · Posted

      Alright so my 32 only has one temperature no matter what degree you set it to. I’ve tried disconnecting the servo motor arm and moving it either direction and got no change. I’ve fixed the leak in my AC and re charged it and with it on and clutch engaged it still blows hot even though the low pressure pipe going to the firewall is ice cold. Both heater core hoses are hot while running as well. Diagnostic code showed 24 for intake air temperature sensor. Anybody got any ideas?
