Yeah, lots of good reviews. 1.2k, can't complain. If i bought the specific ones for my civic (fork), it'd be 1.1k. But I'm running integra type r stuffs underneaths, so have to pay for that type R tax :[

That's the price you pay Honda fanboi lol

All coilovers look the same in the end anyway :P

Must admit loving my pedders coilovers so far

What do pedders charge for coils roughly?

Seems legit

1750, but fords have separate springs from shock on rear so dunno if that makes it cost more or what ever

pretty funny how my stock springs only saw like ~2000kms lol but this completely transformed the car to something more sporty feeling with a luxury side as well way more difference compared to getting them in my GTR

Just want an intercooler, exhaust, brembos and wider rims now! modding bug never stops..

like this (to make sense of it) not sure what brand this is though:

Nah price won't affect the rear shocks being seperate, vdubs have seperate rears and price is same as normal coils

also, LOL

HAHAHA

Did you pop your motor? What's planned for it?

Yeah, from what Racepace figured out, piston 5 had a cracked head, making a loud knocking noise and loss of compression.

Wanted a standard rebuild, but Racepace justified how a forged will benefit in the long run and I totally understand.

spoke to jamie at garage cafe one of his pistons was knocking or something, he's getting it rebuilt (forgies) with -5s or similar

Yep, but using my stock (rebuilt steel internal) turbos for now.

Till I speak further to Chris about what he thinks.

From memory, he prefers -7's.

Jaime did I see u at wtac?

Hey Alex!

Nah, don't think so man, I didn't go to WTAC.

How was it? I saw some pics and they look quite good.

Think he wanted -9's. Were trying to convince him to go -5's to make use of his built engine, we'll see if he will succumb to the powah!

But nah -9's great for the street!

:D

If I had a HKS V-Cam or a stroked 2.8lt RB, then -5's would be an option.

But yes, for street use, -7's or -9's.

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
