About 2 issues ago HPI mag did a DIY install guide on these for a R32. Its not very hard. Just get local suspension shop to do final adjustments

PS - is the caber top adjustment the only difference between the two models, other than that they are same? They lok diferent in pics.

Cheers

guys just to clear things up R32s cant have the camber adjustment.

i dunno about other models though.

i have these in my car and i got the pillowball ones which are meant to have camber adjustment but not for the R32 :rofl:

lol get em while they are hot... just a figure of speach i hope! whats this about cant get the camber adjustable for a r32? I already have coil overs on my 32 GTR but not camber adjusting ones. So i am looking for some so please explain???

as far i i know they all come iwth camber adjustment

will confirm for the r32

oh yea and it was a figure of speach

cheers pete

The HR32 Suspension geometry does not allow

camber adjustment on the shocks as does MacPherson strut. -S13/14/15

SO no camber adjust shocks for Skylines!

You can adjust them, just with diff hardware.

i have an R32 HCR32 GTS-t RB20DET.

i have been looking at getting the HR coilovers. but what do u mean about the camber adjustments ?

And shipping does this include shipping ?

i live in syd.

Mod ur car will do it $1,599 free shipping for SAU members.

no doesnt include shipping

bt im 1000000% positive shipping wont be 110 dollars so you can bet it will be cheaper

however if you dont know me i understand your desire to pay more :)

speak to any of the people who run SAU in NSW im sure they will vouche for how dodgy i am :P

im only farmilure with the s13 stuff cause i use it on my r31(with a conversion kit)

but if skylines r32 or > dont have the camber tops its proabably best to buy the cheaper ones

pete(will find out about >r32 tommorow)

A few questions, what sort of delivery time do you expect from time of payment.

And as they arent adjustable camber because R32s like R33 used wishbone front ends, is it possible the cheaper HS uses the std rubber shock top, where the HR uses billet tops with pillow nall mounts?!?!?!

Ie a Skyline HR look likehds15hrrear.jpg

Since they supply the same spring rate im tempted to go for the HS and buy some alloy tops seperate, but i suppose it depends if the HS come with any?!?!?!

Outside that i reckon im about an 85% chance of giving the HRs a go:)

Higer spring rates and adjustable rebound and ride height...outside of that i may be able to let you know in a week or two, as im looking at upgrading from my Whiteline kit at the moment to something a little harder in the spring department.

i'd love to as i've had my eye on these for my 33 for a while now, unfortunately the cash for them won't be in my grubby hands till tax time so i'll have to pass, shame.

good luck with them. be interested in hearing the results of installs.

    • OK, Step 3, if you need to remove the valve body, either to replace it, the TCM, or to do a more complete drain.  First, you need to disconnect the TCM input wires, they are about half way up the transmission on the drivers side. One plug and the wires are out of the way, but there is also a spring clip that stops the socket from sliding back into the transmission. On my car the spring clip was easy to get, but the socket was really stuck in the o-ring of the transmission housing and took some.....persuasion. You can see both the plug to remove (first) and the spring clip (second) in this pic Incidentally, right next to the plug, you can see where the casting has allowance for a dispstick/filler which Nissan decided not to provide. there is a cap held on with a 6mm head bolt that you can remove to overfill it (AMS recommend a 1.5l overfill). Final step before the big mess, remove the speed sensor that is clipped to the valve body at the rear of the box.  Then removal of the Valve Body. For this the USDM Q50 workshop manual has a critical diagram: There are a billion bolts visible. Almost all of them do not need to be removed, just the 14 shown on the diagram. Even so, I both removed one extra, and didn't check which length bolt came from which location (more on that later....). Again it is worth undoing the 4 corners first, but leaving them a couple of turns in to hold the unit up....gravity is not your friend here and trans oil will be going everywhere. Once the corners are loose but still in remove all the other 10 bolts, then hold the valve body up with 1 hand while removing the final 4. Then, everything just comes free easily, or like in my case you start swearing because that plug is stuck in the casing. Done, the valve body and TCM are out
    • OK, so if you are either going for the bigger fluid change or are changing the valve body which includes the Transmission Control Module (TCM), first you should have both a new gasket 31397-1XJ0A and a torque wrench that can work down to 8Nm (very low, probably a 1/4 drive one). You can probably get by without either, but I really didn't want to pull it all apart together due to a leak. First, you now need that big oil pan. The transmission pan is 450 long x 350 wide, and it will probably leak on all sides, so get ready for a mess. There are 24x 6mm headed bolts holding the pan on. I undid the 2 rear corners, then screwed those bolts back in a couple of turns to let the pan go low at that end, then removed all the middle bolts on each side. Then, undo the front corner bolts slowly while holding the pan up, and 80% of the fluid will head out the rear. From there, remove the remaining bolts and the pan is off. You can see it is still dripping oil absolutely everywhere...it dripped all night.... I got another couple of litres when I removed the pan, and then another few when I removed the valve body - all up another 4l on top of the 3 already dropped in step 1.
    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
