Have a look for some KYBs. Any good suspension shop should be able to get them for you.

You don't want to scrimp on suspension, brakes or steering if you value your life or that of others! Your springs may be ok - just need the shocks. A good suspension shop should be able to tell if your spring rates are appropriate for your car.

think its both... cause its the rear... not rubbing any thing but tyers on inner gards... so as much a i dont like it,,,wont kill the car or me.. you put 2 people in the back.. its just not worth the effort... wish i had a pic of the other day

the biggest question i was trying to find out was what else fits......... or just have to find some good shocks and springs and hope for the best?

im sure there's new springs available, cause there are springs available for mine.

just had a real good look at the springs.. there king and there the rite ones for the car... and shocks are new too...and they junk.. at the moment i am looking into what else will fit...ie(180sx or some thing)

just if the king springs are ment to be harder.. and better.. guess custom is going to be way...

and the sad thing also is the motor in the car is a stock l24.. just with exhaust and pod.. would under stand if i had 300rwkw..but less than 100..

guess some thing not rite.

will post the findings

C210 & R30 rear end is same same

S13 rear coilovers fit, but need the top hat changed to a 3 bolt format from the 2 bolt format they come with.

I recommend height adjustable, so you can level out the back of the car in relation to the front.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
