yeah shocks seem to be a bit of bitch to find ... my car came with damper adjustable KYB shocks front and rear however 1 of the rears was dead. so i tried to find replacements of the same type (KYB Damper Adjustables) but they didnt do them for the 30. so i had to make do with some Koni Red's which are rebound adjustable only, mainly for as they wear out u can tighten the rebound i think :) but i turned mine a couple of timesn eway before putting them in and they seem fine after about 5 months still.

come to think of it arent R30 rear shocks the same as S13 ? so you could buy KYB Damper adjustables to suit S13 and put them in? never thought about that at the time.

koni;s were 500 a pair i think for the rears, special order n all :) but yeh theyre quite solid still so cant complain really !

Best easily available are Bilstein B46 0157 . These were supplied specific for the DR30 in Japan . They will be expensive at 400+ a pair BUT what good is grunt if you can't keep your wheels on the ground . For those using high rate rear springs ie 200 inch/pound (mine are 235) there is a B46 0198 which is fractionally shorter with less bump damping but more rebound damping . However Sydney Suspensions would not bring them in last time I asked . You gets what you pay for ...

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
