Hey Guys,

up for sale are my brand new KBee coilovers, i bought them before i had the car, realized its already way too low for my driveway so i'm looking to sell them off.

Have a stupid amount of rebound adjusting, i think they are actually 350z coilovers so they should drop pretty low.

Looking for $700 plus postage

Well the Kbee coils go for around the price you are asking brand new from vendors in the states, apparently they are a "rare JDM coilover" so i read on a forum.

Where did you buy them from?

So you bought them, then bought your car and realised the car is low enough as it is and decided not to put them on?

I bought them from a guy on ebay about 8 months ago.

I bought the coilovers the day i won my car at auction, not realising how low that the v35 is and mine has the factory aero front lip and almost scrapes as it is :( So the coilovers would be a waste of time, id be better off with facotry 350z springs for the 0.5inch drop i could actually use

Okay all good, i would be interested to see if there is a stamp on them of some kind just to establish exactly what brand they are as i said the only pics of Kbee coilovers i can find are yellow not black.

cheers

they are definitely killabee (not kbee) which i found some reviews on looking back through my history. Most people seem to think they are pretty good for a cheapy coilover

they also look to be strictly coilovers - as opposed to the rears being a strut and seperate spring setup.

Good for easy install and adjustment.

PM sent SMOKEYC34 about last comment, I have a question for you....

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
