Hi Folks

I have a set of front and rear tein super street suspension for sale. Suits R32 GTR.

These are the aus spec version, so they are non adjustable but are street legal.

Teins are quite firm shocks, if you want a firm stable ride, these are definately worth going for.

$500 for the set of 4, buyer pays for delivery (or pickup in Adelaide). These retail at JustJap for $750 for a second hand pair.

PM me if interested

-D

Hi mate,

May be interested as I'm looking at replacement suspension for an R32 GTS-4. To my knowledge GTR suspension will fit straight on as a GTS-4 requires suspension with forks not eyes. Would you be able to confirm this for me? If yes, I would definitely be VERY interested.

Cheers :blink:

P.S. As they are non adjustable, roughly how much does the suspension drop ride height from standard?

Gday mate

I'm not sure about the forks/eyes thing but I'll take some photos for you - I have been told that they wont fit on the gts-t due to the rear subframe assembly being different (apparently?), so I'm really not sure if it'll fit the gts-4

re ride height, usual eyebrow height is 350mm, these shocks take it down to 325/330mm depending on how many kebabs I've eaten that week, which is legal minimum in SA...

I've removed the fronts already, I'll take some photos tomorrow and post them up - will be a week before I take the rear teins out, but I can find a photo on google I'm sure

um, Oz Spec Tein SS are height and damper adjustable. Are you sure yours are Super Streets?

Negative. Aus spec does not have height adjustable anything, considering its illegal in several states. Jp spec is height and damper adjustable

tein aus spec flex is a different story, they are intended for a track application

these are a single progressive spring coilover, non height or damper adjustable (which is what makes them aus spec)

-D

EDIT - Sarz I'm not sure how much they weight atm, aus post can handle up to 20kg but over that its a courier. I'll be removing the rears next week and I'll post the weight of them in this thread for all to see

Great! As soon as the pics are posted up we'll have a look and if they're still available we'll see what coin is needed to ship them across to VIC :bunny:

Thanks for a quick response mate :happy:

I must apologise to you BeEnAr as I had my facts wrong

The aus spec SS's do have damper adjustable, but not height

and having inspected the shocks closer, I've found out that they are type HR

Mods, please modify my main post to indicate that these are HR coilovers - non adjustable height or damper

Sorry to the others I havent gotten photos yet as I got home after dark, but I'll definately do it on Saturday

Regards,

D

Hi Folks

Here are the pics of the front set - I won't have time to remove the rears until next weekend, however they were all purchased at the same time and are the same condition as the fronts. Will take photos of them once they are out.

OK folks, have removed the rears finally - I will take pics tomorrow

They come out to just over 20 kilograms, which means the post isnt interested in dealing with it...

If anyones keen, please read the sticky in the For Sale thread regarding couriers - I estimate it'll cost around $90 to ship door to door from Adelaide to Sydney, not sure how much to Melbourne...

If anyones still keen on this set of struts, please PM me asap.

      S15 Spec R

      By RP1421 · Posted

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
