so ..... can anyone tell me how to fit the damn front swaybar? And what are the best settings to use (I bought an adjustable one) - I take it neutral is the centre one - but what holes do I use to change what properties?

I usually start of with the front bar on full soft and the rear on the middle setting.

If it oversteers too much, then I move the front bar to the middle setting

If it still oversteers too much, then I back the rear bar off to the softest setting

If it still oversteers too much, then I move the front bar to the highest setting

If it still oversteers too much, then you might need some more rear camber and/or the HICAS is still working (get rid of it) and/or the rear subframe alignment kit needs to be set to maximum traction (squat)

I usually start of with the front bar on full soft and the rear on the middle setting.

If it understeers too much, then I move the rear bar to the highest setting

If it still understeers too much then you don't have enough caster/camber on the front

:D cheers :D

Sorry, I am a few days behind in my PM responses, yours is the 4th in line, I do them in the same order as I receive them.

:domokun: cheers :)

thanks for the sway bar info SK.

Oh and fyi, when I fitted the front shocks/springs, with them at the standard height that they were delivered to me (the middle circlip groove), the front was 370mm from the centre of the wheel. I had to drop it 2 circlip grooves to make it 350mm. Not sure if they have buggered up the circlip groove heights or what. I am yet to install the rear shocks.

Just thought I'd let you know.

Thanks heaps for all your efforts too!!

Like all springs , they will settle a little bit, so make sure you check the heights after 1,000 k's or so.

:( cheers :(

swaybars are in, no other sus mods, but car sits noticeably flatter. Rear end is more predictable, can really find the limit of your tyres a bit too easily :thumbsup:

it might just be in my head, but would it make the car a bit more "solid" over general bumps and humps? I seemed to notice on my usual roads that are a little crappy, and just going straight, the car will just be more settled over the uneven stuff. Might just be in my head :domokun:

settings i have at the moment are full hard rear, full soft front. Will wait for a track day to play with them

SK

Inbox full.

Are these in stock?

Cheers

Pete

Yep, airfreight shipment of Bilsteins arrived last week, selling fast though, so get in quick.

:dry: Cheers :w00t:

Thanks SK.

There are no prices in the first post anymore..... Are there broken links?

Refer to this thread for the current status on links.

Hey Gary,

Money has been transferred, I hope you have received it!

I've emailed you the details of the order (as your PM is still full).

Please confirm when you can. PM or email.

Cheers

hey mate,

looking at getting some springs and shocks for my car.

my car is a 1999 r34 GT4 non-turbo AWD 4-door, manual

is there a bilstien/whiteline package or a bilstien/Eibach package for my car?

i know that the bottom on my struts have the eye shape instead of the fork.

you got anything or can get me anything?

also is there any info on it?

cheers luke

FAT34, can anyone else help ya? fair few people in this thread have a variety of products from this kit...

Luke, dude, first page, first post. Have a read.

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
