Hi Guys.

Read this entire thread but no one had answered the question yet so so... just wondering if anyone has fitted any type of coilovers to an M35 with HICAS, mine is currently on the water but is a HICAS model and I did read a while back that there maybe an issue with clearance... any one here actually have a HICAS model with coilovers?

Cheers :)

yes all ARX models have HICAS, also LSD models on some RSs to

is yours an RS with HICAS? lucky for you it has an LSD too

anyway, the suspension bolts up the same, its the tray for the spring that steers the wheels

12kg's are fine for the front.....12kg's are a too hard for the rear imo.....but then again I'm try to get a lot more power to the ground than stock.....I'm running 9.3kg's in the rear atm and it's very snappy in the wet........12's in the rear would be a little bumpy as well.

In between 8-10kg's would be fine in the rear....if you want to play around with it more get a good adjustable rear sway bar.

Hey Jetreck, what suspension are you running if you don't have BC's?

I'm running BC's and mine has Hicas :thumbsup: and an LSD... :nyaanyaa:

No issues at all. The hicas only deflects the subframe a few degrees, so I can't see any problems.

It's a 250T RS Four V

Unsure about LSD :S

Might go 12front and 10 rear wouldn't mind racing kents later on but I dont mind stiff as I still need better fitment!

Just got pedders springs all round at then moment rides like poo! You can buy them once I get coilsezzzzz

The ARX rims are +40????

lame...

Yeh, I used to have a set on mine too. They're not ideal. post-61153-0-51601300-1302746704_thumb.jpg 20mm spacers would help a lot.

I now have these; post-61153-0-09558200-1302746830_thumb.jpg V35 18x8, +30 offset. Much betterthumbsup.gifpost-61153-0-78944500-1302747133_thumb.jpg

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
