hey guys,

i gathering info as to what suspension to put on the car and would like to know if any of you who has aftermarket suspesion are able to help. Im particuarly looking at blistein shocks/lowered king springs combo but an open to other varieties. So if anyone here has this set up or any other coilover suspension who would be kind enough to take me for a ride in there car to make my decision easier that would be great.

cheers,

duc.

whiteline? they used blistein shocks anyway, and design for australia road.

Other wise i will say nismo S-tune, similar price.

I believe nobody have more data about our nissan than nissan, they will always has the best balance between ride quality and corner ability.

yeah that may be true tin but i think you have misunderstood my post. I would like to ride in a fellow sau members line who has this setup so i can judge whether to go with them - whiteline/blistein or jap aftermarket coilovers aka tein/kei office.

I have Tein HA, they are a firm ride (sometimes too firm on rutted roads) but if the road is half way decent they handel very well.

An added benifit is available if your passenger is well endowed (bouncy, bouncy :boobies2:)

Nozila,

Unfortunately my car is off the road with an engine rebuild at the moment(and wont be back for several more months)However i can tell you without any hesitation at all that the whiteline package is as good as you will get,i have the complete package on a serII96 r33 and it drives like its on rails,its also got their latest offering in the adj swaybars,the only thing i didnt put on it was the pinapples as i didnt want to transmit too much drive train noise thru the shell.I will add that it doesnt pay to dump the car too low as this does affect the ride quality( ie thats not saying dont lower it,just not too much!)Also of note is that i dont run the 4whl steering anymore and this makes a big difference as well.

Hope this will help in your decision making,if i can be of any more assistance just reply....

Regards,

SKYLINE(Kym)...... :D

Guy(and Di),

Yeh, the stiff suspension has a great effect on large boobs,Sue and i mapped a cruise once out towards Mannum for svd and i made her drive topless on the way back(it was great!)My only complaint with Di is she is always covered up completely--- if you've got flaunt it!!!(HINT!)

Regards,

SKYLINE(Kym).... :aroused:

Nozilla, what r u changing suspension for drift, drag, track????. I have setup a r33

for track but still driveable just on S.A roads. The car has PSS9 bilstiens bump/rebound and height adjustable lowered the 25mm now sits 115mm too much lower screws with camber/castor too much. Full whiteline bush kit adjustable castor and rear camber. Rear blade adjustable 24mm solid sway bar 124% increase soft setting rear is 16mm hollow standard. Front blade adjustable

24mm solid sway bar 44% increase hard setting front is 22mm hollow standard. Tyres r Bridgestone RE55 semislick DOT rated (road legal) in WT soft compound.

If u have a standard R33 to compare I would be glad to take u for a ride.

yeah mate i have standard suspension. I notice that your profile states that you have a gtr, wouldnt that make a difference in the handling as opposed to your setup in a gtst. But yes i would much appreciate a ride.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
