Does anyone actually make new shock absorbers or coilovers for 260rs series one?

Every search I have done comes up as discontinued or not suitable for super hicas models.

I know I can get bc's but is there any other options ?

Rhd Japan have a listing for twin super flex wagon for 260rs but again says not suitable for hicas models. Tried emailing them but no reply

Tein's site says they will custom make dampers for you so if Nengun or someone says they are discontniued its possible you can get them to order. I have Stagea specific springs in mine (with Nismo=Bilstein dampers).

R33 struts will fit front only, I think they work pretty well when you combine a heavy JDM spring with the extra weight of the stagea.

Rear GTR struts will be too short. I've tried it...

How much shorter? Could be good if ur after a really low stance

Just buy a set of hsd's or bc coilovers. Anything else will cost u a mint. Plus u can specify spring rates on hsd's so u can get it riding just right. I recommend 8kg front 7kg rear. Not to stiff but tightens the big whale up nicely.

Beyond drivable in the real world/bump stop love.

If you like the look of your front bar DO NOT DUMP the Autech (please) the overhang is a killer, it WILL scrape if you look at a speed hump straight on.

I'm running 34 gtr front struts with king springs lows (25mm drop on a GTR) and this is too low for practical driving.

you can specify spring rates on bc's aswell, i have 5kg/5kg, (thats the lowest they go)rides nice handles good, remember that 4 kg is something

like a 25 percent upgrade from stock already from memory (well it is on rs4's)

cheers

Just to add a bit of usful info

I used as per Sydneykids recomendations on the bilsteins shock I bought from him, R33 GTR front springs and R32 GTR rear springs......I used Kings springs approx 4kg

yep 4kg is the go, i had them with my teins, but they f**ked out and BC's only went down to 5kg, so i got them, not much worse

in the ride, but yeh if you can 4kg are always the go for stageas..

      Just as a thought, if it's in neutral, thats your drive line disconnect, not the clutch. Clutch slip at the dyno with pedal fully out, is actually adding a second disconnect. So it's not a clutch issue if you're in neutral. Just a bit of friction dragging the output around while in the air.

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The HG high flow is excellent, and costs about the $$ you're talking about. But it, and probably every other highflow, uses a diffeent core than the original turo, and the original Hitatchi core is quite long. So, I think it is inevitable that there is likely no such thing as a highflow that just "bolts on" with no other effort required. And the same is likely true for HG's outright replacement "bolt on" turbos (the ATR things). And the same is likely true for anything similar from elsewhere. I have no idea if the cheap Chinese/Taiwanese complete turbos from eBay/Temu/etc are as bolt on as they claim. I mean, they claim the bolt onto the NAs as well as the turbos, and we know that can't be "bolt on". But it wouldn't matter because I'm not buying a $169 4 psi turbo for anything other than a paddock basher.

      Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD?

      Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.

      So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
