Will the suspension specs applies for a 260rs? If not how much for the different type or model tohe the springs and shock absobers? Thanks

Rear shock lower mounts are different (the fork style same as R33GTR, R34GTR and R34GTT) otherwise everything else is the same.

:) cheers :P

What are your F & R spring rates in kg's for the Stagea

(or are these a secert)

Thanks

20-25% more than standard. The tricks are in the Bilsteins, not the springs.

:( cheers :D

HiSk,

got my car out on friday which is good. Borught it in for aligment and the drivers side was like 1.75 and passenger side was like 2.25. my car is sitting at 350mm front and back. They had trouble matching the camber to be the same on both side. AAny theories? Do i need the camber adjuster? I thought its a bit weird that they are not able to aligend to the exact same camber. but they came preety close/ Let me know,

Ohh BTW the brand of the suspension is JECS. let me know

There are a limited number of Stagea spec front shocks in stock at Bilstein, so if you are interested please don't hesitate. They won't last.

>_< cheers :D

Hi SK

1st of all, thanks for all the amazing info you have posted over the last couple of years for Stagea owners.

I have been the lucky owner of a StageaRS4 S2 1998 for the last 8 months and have been bouncing around on some horrible springs(Tein) with what I think are standard shocks.

I finally have some spending money & was hoping that your group buy for Stagea suspension is still available.

I"m basically looking for the works, as my last car was a Bilstein fitted R33GTST and I need to get back some of the feel and gorgeous handling that car gave me.

Thanks again :)

PM sent

:rofl: cheers :)

sorry to post this in this thread SK but ive heard nothing from you about the swaybar i paid for, or even a replies to the PMs i have sent you since. Dont know how often you check your PMs.

Thanks.

Several PM's sent, I know I lost a few when Prank was doing the update. Another PM sent, please let me know if you haven't received it.

:huh: cheers :)

PS; the Pulsar stabiliser bar has been ordered from Whiteline, should be ready very soon.

i appreciate that, mate. Still havent received a PM, must be an issue somewhere.

Thanks again. The buyer of the swaybar (obviously its not for me) was getting a bit worried is all. Cheers

Hey there, it's 1inthefront here. I would like to buy my husband - 3intheback - a rear swaybar for the S2 for his 40th birthday in October.

Is the group buy still on? I cant quite afford front and rear bars, but it seems that to replace the rear is the best place to start.

Thanks for your help, this will put a big smile on his face and also to minimise the impact of hitting 40!

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
