Hey guys johnny here

I just want sum feed back from any one who have used BC ER series coilovers are they any good ?

I have a r32 gts rb25 neo looking to make it a w.e cruiser / possibly daily driver / drag car

Any suggestions for other brands would be great! And prices

Also on my list is a r33 turbo 5 stud conversion, what are the parts that I will require to do this? And how much are they?

Thanks Johnny

All depends on what your budget is man, my daily Crx has J's racing coilovers and they are stiff as fwak, 20kg, 18kg springs. I assume the BC is something like 8kg 6kg? BC are getting quite popular as they are bang for buck, and I haven't seen anyone give bad points about them thus far. They are rebuildable in OZ too. Personally I'd opt for Tein Mono Flex if your budget allows

what's your budget? if you want the "BEST" coil-overs for a R32 you'll be looking at around $8K per corner (around $30-$35,000 for a full set-up). but somehow I don't think that's what you're after. There are good packages at $2,000 and great ones around $4,000-$5,000. and there are plenty of cheap nasty ones too.

My budget is 1,800 - 2,000 so can sum one point me in the right direction. What is my best bet with this price range

And what parts do I need for the r33 det 5 stud conversion

Have a look at silk roads, can get them for about that or less depending on the dollar. I run them and have no problem with them as well as a few other people i know.

If your going to use it as a cruiser/daily/ drag car then coilovers might not be the best solution

for your budget probably the best option is a set of bilstein shocks (with the circlip type height adjustment) and a set of matched springs (eibach most likely). in sydney heasmans would be the place to go and I'm sure they ship to melbourne too.

they are a good set-up for the under $2K mark.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
