whiteline kits

[justin911]

Hey guys

Just wondering if anyone has a full suspension kit from whiteline on there skyline ?

Im looking at getting the $2k 'works' package but I have no clue about anything suspension related realy. I believe you get everything you need with the kit but is it all worth it?, Would I be better off spending the 2k elsewhere ?? (besides the dictionary shop )

From what i've seen of whiteline there pretty good, but comments from anyone who's got the full kit would be gr8.

thanks

For Datsun 1600's the whitline kits are on the money!

However, I have not heard much about whiteline kits for skylines. So I'm neither going to bag it nor am I going to say it's good.

The jap brands out there are pretty damn good! I have seen HKS hypermax kits go for around $1500 on these forums. I think this is a pretty good buy for a set of suspension that is touted as being one of the best drag suspensions going around.

Maybe you should get a price on a good set of jap suspension eg. Tein, HKS, APEXI to name a few and then make your decision.

But make sure you do the research. Ask around, as there are a few cluey guys here that might be able to help you.

Let's see, I have a full Whiteline kit on the Stagea, and one on the race R32GTST and one on the R34GTT. Plus we have one on the Prelude and the Integra. They are all great, everyone who rides in any of the cars comments on how well they handle and still ride nicely. That's on the road and on the track.

Maybe you should get a price on a good set of jap suspension eg. Tein, HKS, APEXI to name a few and then make your decision.

You can not compare a set of Jap brand name springs and shocks with a FULL suspension kit. None of those named above have stabiliser bars in the kit, or alignment bushes, camber/caster adjustment, subframe alignement bushes etc. The Japs try to do EVERYTHING with spring and shock rate, which is both simplistic and rather silly for Australian conditions.

Need more info? Do a search on Whiteline and Bilstein shocks (that's what shocks they use in the Skyline kits).

PS; The search button is your best friend

well that confirms it then, whiteline kit it is!

thanks

One other quick question, i was reading in some other posts you get the 'low' or 'super low' springs or something with the kits ?

I called up some whiteline distributors they didnt know what I was on about. Is this the case ? Id be looking at getting the 'low' ones if it is, i just dont want to order the wrong thing.

Does anyone know where I can get the best deal on purchasing a Whiteline Works package for my R32 GTSt?

my mate just had the whiteline works pack installed in his 33 gtst... the ride is firm but does not 'crash' into potholes or jump and skip over rough surfaces...

and the cornering? my mate put it best when he said 'it will now corner much faster/better than I can drive'

so yeah just get the whiteline kit and be done with it... i am saving up!

would the whiteline "works" package be suitable for drag? For GTT with appropiate settings and nitto drag extreme tyres. Will be running to4z with fully built engine and all the fruit to go...aiming for 450rwkw....is it possible to get any type of traction or just to much power?
