I think he wants too much money for this, after all it's only pipe your buying and secondhand as well. MAG86 recently bought a similar stainless system for about half of this and just because it says it's Kakimoto, doesn't really mean it's worth this much.

Cheers, D

I'd pay good money for the rear 'over diff' section. spending more than that $300 to get the existing setup re-jigged and altered.

If there was an off the shelf option at the time I would of definitly gone with it.

Pity its not local, shipping is always a killer.....

shipping is a killer is right.. i just bought some sway bars for the chaser and freight+commission is nearly 2/3rds of the price of the bars! still cheaper than local like most of the bits i've been buying :P

might be going down to see my old R30 soon when we swap the rego over to the new owner.. sounds like it's going to be a tear jerker (cause it has been looked after very nicely)- i miss the old girl

Nah, I didns see any bids on them.

I bid on them at the asking price of $300 but they sold for $305.50 or something like that. Was going to bid at the last minute but they finished past my bed time :laugh: wow I'm so old and lame

      Blue slip

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.

      Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?

      You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By Duncan · Posted

      yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
