Yeah i have emailed John again to see if he will beat the price. Admittedly they are different brands of springs, but im happy with King's so long as it saves me a heap of money.

Will do mate.

Not worth the extra money, King springs are very good indeed. You just need to make sure the spring rate and ride height are the best for performance. The rule of thumb for an R33 is lower 1-1/12 inch up front. Even less on the back.

BEN - do i need to fit specific springs with the bilsteins???

i have lowerd springs on mine....so wud i need to get new 1's??? or am i able to just fit the new bilsteins??

Depends if there aus or jap.

Aus ones, ie king , whiteline, selby etc usually have somewhere near usuable spring rates.

Most jap ones are designed for trucks ( or that's what it feels like ) so a normal bilstein may be overpowered by the very heavy jap spring rate.

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.
