Shouldn't need replacing. They're brand new ISC N1s. Well according to Ryan hand tightening the bolts isn't enough and a rattle gun needs to be used.

ahh well i doubt theres a problem with the shockers then, its probably like matty said, maybe your new kick bottom suspension has hastened the demise of the old joints... but then again

<--- not a mechanic

maybe make a set of handlebars and a foot rest so u can use ur new n1's as adjustable pogo sticks...

You tell me Chad.

Pillow ball like the ones in my Stagea. I wish mine were rubber tops like my skyline, its so much smoother on the road.

My stagea has no front bump stops and it was so low that when i hit a bump it would bottom out the shocks, maybe that could be your problem?

I got a leaking bush in the right.. But not in the left. Also I don't see what a rattle gun is going to do compared to hand tightening the f**k outta it. Hmmm. I'm going to have to go down to Pedders tomorrow and see what they think.

But I don't think that I'm hitting anything because its too low (because it only started doing it this morning). There is endless possibilities. But I'm leaning away from the coilover being faulty.

I hope

Sorry Matty didn't see your post. You reckon its ball joints? Should I get them done like.. ASAP or would I be able to drive till I got the spare cash to fix em?

s'alright mate. first thing ive learnt to check from every 31 with coils ive been in thats clunked. always seems to be the ball joints that are f**ked (or in your case a bush thats f**ked)

get them replaced with some genuine ones and you'll be sweet as. amazing how much stress and strain coils put on the rest of the suspension components

hmmm, forgot to factor that into my build...........new bushes all through the car. crap. there goes more cash :P

South Australia delivers again!!

Hell yeah, good idea, lets rebuild Adelaide oval even tho we have AAMI stadium.

lets do it to make sadelaide look appealing to our interstate neighbors!!

why waste the f*kin money? srsly.

all this and its to much to ask, for a simple 1/4 mile peice of flat fkn bitumen.

    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
