I was crawling around underneath the M35 having a bit of a sticky beak at what's at the back and found some nice red coil springs.

Upon closer inspection they are a Nismo product, they had 55320-RSM55 on them.

Can anyone shed any light on the specifications of these springs?

Bugger, I thought the product code might have shed some light on them.

Anyway, picture attached :P

If anyone else has these springs or can shed some light on them, let me know.

i have the same in my m35, they are Nismo S tune

you should also have matching s tune struts painted in gold with nismo stickers on it

they are a street orientated sus package, 20mm lower and stiffer then stock, but not track hard

my car came with full service history and documents so i should be able to take a pic of the sus paper work

Ross,

Thanks for that man, much appreciated.

I don't read jap but have saved the pics for one day when I run into someone who does :P

The leading product numbers are slightly different, mine 55320 yours 54010 but look very similar.

I havn't been able to get under the front end to find the suspension but I will when I get it on a hoist.

It sits quiet well and handles great so chances are it is a full nismo s-tune similar to yours.

Once again, thanks mate!

they pic i attached is of the front sus, the rear coil would have a different part number since its seperate from the strut assembly

id hazard a guess its the same set up as i have.

D'oh, silly me, I did work out that was the front strut but I havn't got under there yet as there is not much clearance and a million things to see when you do look under there.

I can't wait to see under the front and find out if the nismo gear is there too :P

I have a set of nismo shocks installed in my S1. I got them second hand and they were recond with new valves by a local Bilstein trained specialist. They are Bilsteins presumably made to order for Nismo and stamped "Nismo". Mine are front:

56110-RSC45 ENP and rear 53210 RSC45 ENP. My springs are Teins front F-SIN78-010311 HCC and rear R-SIN79-010382 HCC

im seriously hating your car more and more bis-e-bee :D

Jelousy is such a curse!!

I'll go searching for more goodies later today and will email you personally to tell you about them :(

Nah, I don't think there is much more in the goodies department but there is so much to check out underneath and in the engine bay etc.

OK,

According to my 2003 Nismo catalogue, the following is the full S-Tune kit for the M35 (4WD)

5300S-RSM55

It then has a parts breakdown as follows:

530FS-RSM55-R (FR Assembly)

530FS-RSM55-L (FL Assembly)

56210-RSM55 (rear shock)

55020-RSM55 (rear spring)

The specs for the springs are:

F: 8.3kgf/mm -20mm

R: 9.2kgf/mm -20mm

Hope this helps.

Thanks guys, sheds some light on it.

Although Ben's codes vary a bit to what my springs have them (55320-RSM55).

They looks like S-Tune's tho, and they handle pretty well.

When I get the front wheels off I will check for the Nismo springs & shocks and what codes are on those.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By CF.Panda · Posted

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
