Just about to install the whiteline sway bars in our v36 sedan.

Two settings for the front and three for the rear.  What setups are you guys going for these days ?  As its a daily driver i was just going to go n the softest settings to see how that goes first....

I just installed whiteline sway bars on 2007 v36 skyline sedan.

The fronts are quite easy, 4 x 14mm nuts on to the chassis and 2 x 17mm nuts for the sides - might need a spanner on the rear of these.

The install on the rear was painful, you have to drop at least one side of the exhausts.  It is a 12mm clamp bolt to undo the exhaust.  All 6 nuts are 14mm for the rear uninstall / install.

While I was at it in got new nuts from autobahn. Champion high tensile FBM164 flange nuts M10x1.25 pack of 10 for $8.

Install uninstall setup for whiteline sway bar for nissan skyline v36 sedan.

As it was a daily driver, i set the sway bars on the softest settings.  It wasn't great and did understeer a bit.

I then set the front to the hardest setting and changed the rear to the middle setting.  It turns in better now.

With the sway bars, the car drives the same suspension wise, although when you push it through the corners you can feel the car is more stiff through the front and rear (exactly what it was designed to do)

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
