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.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?

      Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it

      All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.

      That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
