have you tried Heasmans on Princess Hwy, Sydenham in Sydney?

here are some jap brands from my hyperrev magazine - dunno where/how you could get them into australia. perhaps the online shops nengun, perfectrun, takakaira or greenline could help?

-hasemi

-tokico

-jam

-el-sport

-impul

I might try Heasmans havnt heard of them before. Ill see if they can do anything.. yeh I think i checked Nengun i might check out the others... ill see if i can find anything in Sydney/NSW first, if not will have to try interstate or get them directly from japan.

have you changed the shocks on your R34?

I've been told that Bilstein make good ones for us, can be hard to source though cos they are slack. also just heard that kyb make some adjustable ones that fit and are good. Alistair at powerplay told me about them so I can only assume he can get them. i think they might be quite a new product for them.

Im pretty sure they fit. But anyway, inregards to shock for your 34. I got KYB replacements. $110 each. They also make KYB replacements with damper adjustable. No idea what the price is.

By the way, if you want front shocks, just tell them its for 33 GTST. Exactly the same. Rears are same as 33 GTR.

N/A® where did you get the KYBs from??. $110 each is a pretty good price

Abo bob - I called Bilstein in Sydenham and they only had them for the GTR not GTT..

[Abo Bob]

I wonder if they meant they don't have them in stock? I spoke to a random one day who told me it took about 10 phone calls and 2 months to get his.

Also maybe we should tell them what N/A® just said above??? They might find they have them afterall.

I was pretty much sold on Bilsteins until I heard about the KYB ones cos they adjustable.

Yeah, they didnt list shocks for 34 GTT but I got 33 GTS ones and its a perfect match. Rears are matched to GTR 33. The place to call is CV Driveshaft and suspension in SA - (08) 8262 3622. Ask for Ron.

Abo bob - looks like i might have to give them a few more calls LOL

N/A - you in SA or did you just ordered them from there??, i might see if someone in NSW sells them. What yr model is ur GTT?

R34 GTT's have 2 different setups.. easiest way is to check your rear shock.. if it looks like the rears in the pic, then GTR susp should fit.

[Abo Bob]

And if not?

Mine is a 4door. Does anyone think that'll matter?

Bilsteins are very hard to get. Australia is the last in the chain so we basically get leftover stock. There are also 2 different spec shocks as well with bilstein. One is a Jap spec which is apparently no good for aussie roads and there is another spec but i cant remember the name of them. Much nicer on aussie roads and not much different with track work.

I tried to get some bilsteins from heasmans about 10 months ago and they wouldnt even take a deposit from back then as they didnt know what stock or when they were going to get any stock. Buggers me how a would famous shock can work like this.

Hi Dave is there anyway to tell without taking them out... i took them out before but I cant remember exactly what they look like...Ive got a 99 model GTT... you think the R34GTR susp will work?

N/A - What yr model is your GTT?? if its the same as mine ill just order the R33 suspension

Try this guy he may be able to help you .http://www.importbitz.com/

99 Model GTT.

4door GTT's do not use the fork on the back suspension so GTR suspension won't fit 4 doors.

as dave said, if your rear uses a fork then you can use GTR suspension. The only qualm about this is that apparently on the highest height setting using GTR suspension, the car sits a tad below stock height.

[dAVE]

XtRoN!C, just have a look under the rear of the car... see if your shocks look like the taller rear ones with the fork at the bottom, or the other type.
