Hi guys,

Have for sale full set of suspension (coilovers and shocks) and all mounting hardware.

Drummond Motorsport DMS50's

They are currently on car and will be taken off when sold.

(so if you are local you can come see and feel on-road)

They have DMS 'Targa Spec' spring rates and valving. 9kg front, 5.5-6kg rear. Springs are tapered progressive type.

(This pic below is not mine - just pulled from Interweb - but this is what they look like (but maybe dirtier at the moment :) ).

$2300 ono.

Yep these are no problem at all on the street. I think the valving in them is the reason for that. They are 'firm' due to medium-high spring rates but pretty good at ironing out those little bumps and are never really harsh. Being Targa spec you can imagine they have to be an extremely good all rounder.

Also DMS are fully rebuild-able - so if ever you wish to tune them up a bit or alter valving/spring rates etc you can.

The only reason I am changing is that I am trialling some AST 5200's and being looked after very well by the distributor. Sort of a sponsorship deal if you like.

You don't see too many AST setups on GTRs that I am aware of so will be interested to see how they perform.

Amazingly - I still have these... Is no one aware of DMS and how good they are??

Good value for money guys - surely someone is looking for better than average suspension for both street and track duty?

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
