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 :)

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!

    • What bedding in procedure did you use?   When you say stutter, what exactly do you mean? Like it feels like someone letting go of the brakes momentarily and regrabbing them again to get you to stop? Re-reading your post, and that is what it kind of makes me think you're explaining, like theres a little bit of a jolt, likely just as you're reaching a stop. I've only had this issue once. And if its caused by what caused mine, you will want to get the car up on stands again and check it over. Mine was a case of a caliper mounting bolt coming out and letting the caliper rotate on the other remaining bolt and gave play in a wheel as it came to a stop. But not every stop either!
    • Yeop... binned it   This will be a summary will not many pics atm and cbf  Fixed the samsonas - it was totally munched Put a new precision 7675 T4 on with proper split pulse mani Got to Sydney to get to car - drove to canberra to get racecar - drive back to sydney that night Next day all day at Plasmaman putting on new clamps cleaning some things up and adding another large engine oil cooler sitting at the rear above diffuser to keep things cooler Next day - Tuesday - on Dyno - killer wikid awesome pumped out really good numbers - more mid range and on lower boost levels Wednesday - first prac - all day again getting the suspension right - had to borrow front suspension again - out do a lap come in - out do a lap - in - what i had just couldnt handle the load at the more consistent higher speeds - got a lap in at the end of the day that was pretty reasonable  Put it this way that lap wouldve had me in 4th in Pro am for the whole event - with only 700 hp and used tyres Thurs first official prac day - lap out warm up - then entered a hotlap with above setting and 80% effort took corners 1,2,3 and into 4 car felt awesome -  rear came around out of nowhere bang into the wall near front on at whatever 140 kmph Done, over, gone Just one of those how did that happen apparently as all indications show nothing out of the ordinary Got to spend the rest of the time at the event like I hadnt done before - was actually Ok mainly as I had my family and my boy is 9 and got treated like a rockstar Long trip home, lost a trailer wheel in nowhere land, X5 airbag suspension gave up half way across nullabour and rode on bumps stops (its now completely fine) had to do a 19 hr drive day on day 3 as accommodation got screwed up so just had to keep driving till found a town with some Now to reassess - hopefully the motor and other things are OK but yet to be seen too. There is no easy fix there is no i'll just order that part and get it sent - we'll have a talk to people see what can happen and what the go is but at minimum its rebuild from scratch struts forward and alot of time effort and $ should and if I return and if but maybe/ when  I have the cage tied into the front strut towers - if I didnt have that things couldnt been worse you can say its just a front end but if you know what goes into these cars... you'll know what that actually means in reality   Car was very fast. Disappointing we just didnt get to show it Effort doesnt win you races though     Apparently this is motorsport !  
    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
    • Yeah man, absolutely. You can try pushing me all the way in swapping the R34 for an E9x M3 
    • It's almost certainly going to be some amount of pads compound transfer onto the rotors. It will probably go away after you've run them for a bit. If not, pull it all out, lightly sand the rotors, scuff the pads, and rebed.
