Hey guys about 6 months ago changed from stock springs to Kings, but havent been impressed with the way the car feels it often skips over bumps and feels like it is botttoming out when giving the car a bit.

As i like to get out on the track a bit I want to upgrade my suspesion after reading on here Whiteline seems the go but should I just get the handling kit and keep the king springs or get the works kit and sell the kings?

The car is my daily driver and sees track work every couple of months which hopelully will be more often in the neard future?

Any ideas on what to do, any suggestions would be good?

seriously dude, get the complete works kit from whiteline... i made the BIG mistake of using Kings springs with my full whiteline works kit, and it was one of the worst decisions i've ever made. To say i'm dissapointed in the amount of customer service etc that i am receiving from kings at the moment (the springs that they have supplied me with are nowhere near the same as what i was told they would be, and their general "oh well, its not our fault... cya later" attitude) has steered me clear of dealing with Kings in the future.

Bottoming out is most likely a ride height thing...as for the ride, could simply be the fact that the std shocks cant handle the new Kings, because of the ride height, the age of them or the actual spring rate?!?!?!

I have found the Whiteline kits good because they are a known qty and a good baseline from which to start. You can of course spend thousands on susp, but the Whiteline kits get the job done for a resonable outlay.

    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same. 
    • I have an elite 2500 running an adapter harness on an rb25de neo r34. I took the butterfly out and removed all that junk. But I also went Plus+t at the same time. The butterfly thing works in reverse to the boost solenoid on the Gtt if that makes sense
