hey i just wanted to double check.. all 4 wheels are meant to be 350mm to the guard yeah ?? or is the rear differant to the front ?? thanks ;)

no, the front should be a bit more than the rear.... makes the car 'level'....

The Xmas rush has started, if you want suspension before the holiday break (22/12/06 to 3/1/07) then best not to delay too long.

:pirate: cheers :kiss:

There is currently zero stock of R33GTST front Bilsteins at Bilstein Australia. Production is scheduled in Germany early in the new year. I don't know how many shocks will be in the shipment, so I strongly suggest that you get in now. Jamex have agreed to take a $400 deposit to secure your shocks.

:P cheers :D

Sorry, this Group Buy is closed for shocks as there is no more stock of front R33GTST Bilsteins. I will re-open it when the next shipment is confirmed.

The other items (springs, bushes and stabilsier bars) are still available however.

:( Merry Xmas to all at SAU :)

So the bilsteins will be available again? Got a rough idea of when?

They are on the Bilstein Germany Production List, but they have no confirmed shipping date. When I know I will post it up.

:( cheers :)

damn! same here, was on my list of things to do in the new year. oh well, lets play the waiting game i guess. give me more time to save anyway. will be keeping an eye on this thread for when the arrive.

Hey Gary,

It might be in the thread somewhere, but its not in the first post...Was wondering what the model numbers for the whiteline springs are?

I know you've chosen the shocks to suit them, and added the extra groove, but are the springs just a regular whiteline product?

cheers.

hey everyone, here are some pics of the kit assembled. I know they are going under the car and all, but damn, they look good.

Oh, and I dropped my old stockers, the new kit, and the extra parts off at pedders, and they put all 4 together for me for $100 neat.

Excellent service.

Oh, and Gary, I decided to get the circlips at 342mm on the front, and 340mm at the back. This will allow 5mm sag after they set in, leaving me with 337mm Front Guard Height, and 335 Rear guard height making the car look level. This will also give 13mm rake, which is as close as I could get to your recommended 10mm setting. Hope this sounds ok!

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
