If Z33/V35 coilovers fit M35's, does it mean that Z33/V35 lowering springs will fit intoi M35 standard shocks?

They'll fit but it'll be no good; theyre not designed for the weight.

i've been reading and researching about v35 coilovers and if they will fit m35. I quoted the above posts just to know more about it, can anyone please calrify, cause if the spring rate is the issue, is that mean I can change springs and retain the dumpers right? - since that my Sister is selling her V35 with BC coilovers

I might just buy this from her and install it to my ARX -

sure the springs will fit, but they will be the wrong spring rate for an M35

unless the Z33/V35 is AWD, the coilovers will NOT fit. the front suspension setup is different to accomodate the AWD drivetrain.

Hmm...I was watching Inside West Coast Customs and in one of their cars they were installing Pedders coilovers....I checked out the website and for shits and giggles I wanted to check if there is one for a Stagea

surprise surprise there is for the S2 I believe

1996-2001 Stagea WGN34 Wagon - 16-0174 Extreme XA Coilover Kit

wonder if anyone has used them??

Probably worth reposting this here:

From this thread (the stagea suspension thread) I gather a shock meant for a R33 GTR will fit the RS4.

Is it going to work well as a stock comfort replacement? I figure it would be stiff going on the GTR, but the stagea is heavier.

Any good local places to pick up replacements from?

auto's need r33 gtr front and r33 gtst rear shocks

manuals use 33 gtr all round

you can use the gtr stuff, but the valving is different and also worth noting is that getting stuff out of japan could land you near the cost of a new set of coilovers (which can be rebuilt, eg BCs are $75/shock for new inserts)

Thanks, Ive already fixed the rear shocks up with some new KYB's.

Im open to new coilovers on the front, but maybe in future. Need to get the car back on the road.

When you say the valving is different, what is the on-road effect going to be?

was wondering if any of the m35 drivers have used the cusco suspension.. otherwise il just stick with the proven bc's just thought id try be different

I'm sure the quality will be fine; all their stuff seems to be. The picture is a stock image; that kit isn't for an NM35.

I did notice the listed rear spring rates are quite light; 5kg/mm. I'm pretty sure the BC rear spring rates are around the 9kg/mm.

Something to think about if you like to load your car up, or tow a trailer.

Cheers, Dale.

Any more info on that? Ball joints arent likely to be squeaky. Things like sway bars can make very loud creaking noises at the rubber mounts. Worn ball joints make dull knocking sounds if the ball is moving slightly around in the socket. Usually noticeable on rough roads where everything in the suspension is moving around slightly but constantly.

    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
