Haven't been up there for 5 years myself, so I don't know.

Western boat ramp is open, on the Nerang Murwillumbah Road.

Natural Bridge is down that way. Not sure what the road surface is like.

Anyhow, make up your own minds.

I'll be on the road Sunday. PM me if you're interested.

hey i was out there last friday night an the dam is still closed...

an the road out to natural bridge is ok to average some sections have been

resurfaced an are nice an smooth an some bits are old an quite rough but over all a good drive..

super street $ 2200

racing logic $ 1700

buddy club $ 1100

all have the same amount of adjustments an same build qaulity..

I got mine for around 1500AUD delivered from japan. After researching the difference between the jap spec and aus spec one, I concluded that its not worth that extra 1000 (quote by fulcrum around 2.5k) for revalving simply because you cant really feel that much of a difference. In any case, a lot of jap spec ones are around the 2k mark locally too which I think its a very heavy mark up by distributors here.

Also another thing worth noting is, I've read somewhere that ONLY Teins are legal when it comes to aftermarket suspension in Australia. If thats true, I wouldnt mind paying that extra 400 for it. Aus or Jap spec doesnt really matter because they're all green visually (if you know what I mean).

Who did you get them through if you don't mind me asking?

have you screwed some more damper in yet...?

Fixed at 14 front and rear. 28turns in total and at the softest, its way better than stock but at the stiffest, its not anymore stiffer than stock.

and height?

That will be fixed next time I'm back from site. Probably drop another 10mm or 20mm from the front as the lowest point of my car would be the front pipe.

If your car is at 140 now, 20 will be safe at the front if you're scared of the speed bumps. You could go 40 at the rear though. My exhaust doesn't scrape at all and it's a hell of a lot lower than yours.

There hasnt been 1 yet I believe. Maybe try organizing 1 for next weekend or Friday night. I might be able to make it when I'm back from site. I'll probably be doing the major service on Sat and dont know how long it'll take.

    • Yep, its been down for a while, as I understand it it will be back soon.
    • Yeah I also looked at Plazmaman, but, it ended up alot  cheaper getting black ones through EFI when you also added in the delivery cost
    • Nice shot! They look super clean. The roof rack delete on the black one is interesting. Would like to see more pictures from different angles. It's subtle but could make quite a difference to how the car looks in profile.
