I got kei-office 8KG/6KG... their pretty good, would reccomend them but make sure you get the damper adjustment tool with them, cos you cant change the damper in the rear with out it..

Hey mate

My friend bought ISC coilovers for his 4dr 32 and is very happy with results.

He has spent a lot of money on ISC branded products and never has issues.

ATM i have king springs and will be definitely looking to get ISC coilovers in the future.

$1500 for the set isnt to much of a bite out the wallet for good results. :dry:

Non N1- "This coilover is currently only available for S13/S14/S15, Mazda FC and WRX. It is basically the same spec as our N1 coilover except this model comes without pillowball/camper tops on the front coilovers. Instead the cambere top is replaced with a non adjustable strut top. Camber on the front can still be adjusted via an enlongated hole in the bottom bracket."

ISC N1 coilovers = $1499. These are 32 step damper adjustable and unlike alot of the "jap" ones ISC are base height adjustable. The difference between the ISC N1 and the basics is the front pillowballs, the N1's have them and the basics do not. Pillowballs are there for better steering response allowing the top of the strut to move around when cornering etc. ISC coilovers are SA based and we pride ourselves on our customer service!

If anyone has any questions please don't hesitate to throw me a pm,Ryan

The most common blue coilover to come out of japan would be Cusco. Have you checked for leaks etc? Could also be worn pillowballs at the top of the strut, siezed shock etc.

I'm pretty sure my springs are 5kg/4kg...gonna see If I can dig up my original receipts...

that'll be good if you can find out.

My Bilsteins are 400lb (7kg) at the front & 450lb (8kg) at the rear.

I wouldn't mind going a bit softer on the rears though, maybe 5 or 6kg.

I was just talking to Matt (SK's son) who said that is way too stiff Luke. They recommend about 5 or 6 on the front and 4 or 5 on the rear with heavy sway bars to compensate........unless your vehicle is mainly used for track.

Spoke to Polyair Suspension in Sydney today, who are very knowledgeable about damping rates, and they said that even though Jap stuff have either 16 or 32 steps of adjustment, the difference between the softest setting and the hardest is not as great as a European shocker with only 9 settings..........go figure?!

i can personally vouch for Ryans customer service :down:

yeah Luke we need GTR front sway bars you may also need GTR rear but for me its GTSt in the rear

it was my understanding the ISC only do the N1 here no point doing the cheapies

have tein hr in mine with 35mm cusco sway bars. depending on the rd they can be harsh but generally they are good. no body roll but yet the way they are set there is still plenty of movement for general driving.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
