Hi all..

Just need some input for new gear I am about to order from the states.

Doing the suspension this time.

On the order i have.

1. Berk Technology G35 High Flow cats.

2. Eibach 5.72050K Rear Camber Arm 03-06 Sedan, 03-07 Coupe G35 V35

3. Eibach 6365.140 G35 Pro-Kit Springs 03-07 Coupe V35

4. Hotchkis 22413 G35 Adjustable Sway Bars 03-06 Sedan, 03-07 Coupe RWD ONLY

I was going to go with BC racing coilovers, but as these are defectable in South Australia I better not risk it. Even though I would be defected by my fellow cop brethren, I don't want that hassle.

And i really only want a 1 inchish drop.

What are your thoughts? 1200 + 275 for postage for the lot. Pretty reasonable.

Feedback please :)

Thanks all

You're a scholar mate. Thankyou.

I needed someone in Australia to give a good opinion.

I was looking at the Tanabe DF210s. 1.7 in the front and 1.3 in the rear and that would just be so low. With big 19s which sit outside the guards, having less than 2cms clearance from the top of the tire to the fender would just be dumb.

Also for the shipping price Conceptz is offering, it works out to be hundreds cheaper than finding the cheapest parts in different stores.

Yea got both of those from conceptz, good price for those two. Yea the Eibach is a nice drop. Not low. Holds car well. Install the sways first...then drive it a few weeks n then put the Eibach on...the hotchkis sways are amazing!! You will not be disappointed. Holds the car down so well, around corners and everything.

Have fun with them :)

    • Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.
    • Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).  
    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
    • Gee she looks a bit rear heavy in that first pic! Sounds like a great project with the kids, but as I guess you know R series stuff is getting hard to find and pre that is pretty much impossible these days
