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!

Absolutely, no problems, PM sent with details.

:ermm: cheers :O

hey gary, im looking at getting a set of shocks for my stagea, however the rear shockies on my s2 rs four s appear to have the fork style bottoms rather than the eye style that other stageas seem to have, can you get these aswell?

hi SK

your pm box is full.

i received the swaybars but i can't find the pineapples. i thought they might have been slipped into one of the swaybar boxes but it's definitely not there.

in addition are the sway bars supposed to come with new pin rubbers? (the D-rubbers were in the kit)

Oddly enough, my car ALSO pulls to the left!

Nothing major, but if you let go of the steering wheel, it eventually starts turning left... i presume i just need a wheel alignment?

Both you, alex, AND leshy (terminal) said your cars pull to the left??? so does mine!!! It was more than a year ago since you two posted that, have you got it sorted now???

i just received shocks and coils and the subframe al. kit from SK (thanks greg thats awesome), so will be fitting them when the car comes back from the smash repairs. Did you fix your settings? ill see how i go after having suspension fitted and re-aligned...

as mentoined in stagea discussion i just fitted sk's suspension kit, was really impressed with quality and ease of fitting[bars shocks & bushes] everything went together as it should and the end product is now a comfortable good looking super handling stagea, and no fiddling around to find rattles & squeaks. great product great VALUE, thanks again gary for all your help, leigh

I am off to Bathurst tomorrow for the 12 Hour race, the race team is running (not a Skyline) and I have to do my Team Manager thing. I will be back on Tuesday, so please excuse the slow responses to posts and PM's.

:pirate: cheers :ph34r:

Gary,

When installing the whiteline rear springs - i had to go to the third highest circplip groove on the strut before the spring would even touch the top hat. Is this normal? ie I had to go to the second highest circlip groove to get a better height.

Adrian

think about it

when you only have preload adjustment (which is essentially what it is)

if you want to lower the car, you have to move the spring lower since you dont have a threaded shock body to screw down, and not effect the spring tension.

so yes, it would make sense that it happens...adn will also damage your shocks over time due to reduced stroke travel, they have hte possiblilty to heat up too much from the short strokes.....

After racing dirt bikes for a few years know - i know a bit about suspension setup. Just wanted to know if others had the same setup with the kit. As you can see i from the pic i added to signiture i was going for a standard just lower than standard height setup as i will be towing bikes etc.

Does someone know of a replacement tie rod end to suit the Stagea S1. Think i read elsewhere that some one had used a s14 equivalent. is this true or am i best ordering one thru nissan?? When putting the suspesion in i found one tie rod end with some play (102000km) . Would like to replace this before taking it for a wheel alignment.

Thanks in Advance,

Adrian

the rear uses all s14 rods, diff, adn subframe bushings (if you want the metal ones liek i have)

front uses skyline and s14 stuff...skyline gtr front sway, s14 everything else

    • Well, fun day was had, I finally found a house that will do me just fine, 1980's brick build, but with full fresh renovations, plus new colour bond fencing all round so puppies are incoming 🐕, and water tanks for the garden, and it's located in West Goulburn..... @Duncan 🫡, so day trips to Wakie to watch cars going Zoom will be on the cards In the end it cost well under my budget and was actually better than alot of the more expensive joints I was looking at, it is in a good area, close enough to the shops, public transport, and the Wollondilly River Weir,  and the great walking paths along the river, but far enough away from town to see minimal traffic The deposit is dropped, the conveyancer is conveyancing and I should get the keys in a week or 2 as the property is currently unoccupied  As with everything I own, I'm doing up a modifications list, as it doesn't have solar, that is first up on the big list, all of the panels and enough batteries to keep the joint warm, or cool, followed by a largish carport out the front, the small list, which will start as soon as I have keys, is some security stuff, like cameras, screens, and the usual "crazy prepper" additions that weird old people like (mouse holes to stick shot guns out of, and the usual man traps that the average person installs for the unsuspecting and unwanted guests 🤣) The gardens front and back are OK, but, not to my standards or liking, so landscaping will be a fun job to start getting into, so when spring is sprung I'll do a heap of planting, lots of natives and vegetables is the plan, the old owners were more "Old English Garden" type, so basically Roses and other weird looking things that are destined for the green waste bin One thing that is staying garden wise is a nice established hedge out the front, it is about 5 foot tall and covers the whole front of the property from prying eyes As for the car hoist, the roof in the garage has some height to it, but, I'll need to get an installer out to see what can be done, width wise may be a issue, but my building inspector will be getting back to me over the next week with his recommendations  Small, but cosy     
    • I tried to get in contact before I went to QLD you didn’t respond, then I tried to contact you in r31 club.  I thought you fell off the earth or something haha.  I will grab it off you but unknown when I will be up that way 
    • I think that might be in the question. He is going very low, and I think the standard GTR ones are simple tripod joints (like the rear NA/S chassis ones), not proper CVs (like R chassis turbo/GTR ones). Proper CVs take the misalignment better than tripods.
    • Do you still need the wiper motor and stuff?
    • I haven't used the Crank Motorsport ones, but can I ask why not use standard gtr/gts4 axles at the front? They would easily cope with that power level. BTW.....sounds like quite the project!
