Hi all,

Cleaning out the last of my R33 GTR parts and I have 2 sets of shocks for sale.

First off is the Sydney Kid R33 GTR kit. I had this in my R33 GTR for about 4000km, but the new owner of the car wanted the price lowered so this came out and in went an R34 setup instead. Spring rates are 4/3KG and are valved as per Sydney Kids group buy kit. Handles great as many will agree with.

Paid $1500 but will accept offers around $1000 and will negotiate/swap for parts and cash depending on what you have to offer.

The second set of bilsteins are of an unknown valving configuration. They are pretty firm but are re-buildable so for anyone wanting to make a custom set they are a cheap starting point. $150 ono.

Parts are located in Cairns, North Queensland. Will freight anywhere. PM or call me on 0434 147 478 if your interested.

Are they Both off GTR's??

Yes indeed, both sets are R33 GTR, but also fit an R34 GTR and R34 GTT.

The setup pictured on the right is the sydney kid setup with the 4/3kg springs

The shocks on the left are the unknows that can be used as cores for a rebuild/custom dampner setup. No springs on this set though as you can see. When you go custom the springs need to match your valving anyway so you'd buy new springs to suit what you would have done to the shocks.

Are the Sydneykid Bilsteins valved for street or for track?

What are the differences between R32 and R33GTR Shocks? I notice the rear lower mount looks wider, are there any other differences?

Are they Sydneykids Eibach springs?

They are very streetable but work on the track as well (though I'd never done anything more than a motorkarna event with them in my previous R33 GTR). They were a huge improvement over my Teins that I had previously.

Yes they are eibach springs, 4/3Kg. I have no idea how they compare to an R32 GTR setup. Its possible the top hats just need changing to make them compatible but I dont really know and I dont have any means of comparison either... sorry.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
