Hi guys,

I have some R32 Coilovers out of my car which I am returning to standard.. They are currently in the car and any buyers in Adelaide can come for a test drive, coilovers will then be pulled out that night for the buyer. They currently have 11,xxx km, I bought them with 5,000km straight from Japan and haven't had any problem at all over the last year of owning them.

hey jin man

are you stripping another car from japan, do you really think they have just 11,000 km on them i doubt it

anyways I'm still interested. How hard is the ride does the car bounce everywhere?

regards Jordan

if you can't remember me I bought some parts off that purple ceffo you had

Hey Jordan, Yeh you bought the 5 stud conversion.

They are damper adjustable so turning them down to soft makes the car ride over bumps no problem, and turning to hard make the car very stiff. Ive never owned a car without coilovers so I cant really say if they are too hard or not, best come for a quick ride.

yeh they do have 11,000km on them, I bought them from Japan with 5,000km and since then have racked up my own 6,000km. Once you see the condition on them I think you will agree they have done minimal km's.

I'll aid in the sale

i've been running these in my s14 and r32

These are one of best coilovers i've used hence why i choose to run them in both of my cars, they are very similar to HSD coilovers as i've had these before also

I've trailed many coilovers and these are perfect for street, the dampening plays a big role which you can really notice the difference from soft to hard

They are a very popular brand in America but not so popular in Australia

People have used these for years with no knocks or leaks and are fairly comfortable on Melbourne roads

Only down side to these coilovers is that they rust easily because there is no rust protection (easy fix with rust protection lube)

"i suggest you put up real pics of the coilovers"

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
