Hi i was wondering what type of tein coilovers the attached picture is, and how much i could get for them on resale. The picture below is the same model i have however are not actually mine (mine are in better condition). I beleive they are dampening adjustable and height as i have wound it out and noticed a softer ride.

Also what would be some spring/adjustable shock combinations (i.e. whiteline and bilstein adjust.)? which you could recommend for a fairly hard setup which would be good for a stiff setup (little body roll) yet still fairly decent over bumps in the road. (coming from teins, everything seems like its a much bigger bump than it is)

Cheers, David.

Hi David, check out the Bilstein/Whiteline Group Buy for your model of Skyline. Body roll is best controlled by the stabiliser bars, that's why the Group Buy kit has good ride, sporty, but not harsh and great handling.

:( Cheers :)

How can you tell the difference between HA's and the other ones which are dampening adjustable.?

HA's are damper adjustable. but the ones in your pic look like HR to me.

either way just ask the bloke who is selling them. or do a little research.

Hey here are two pics of the coilovers, i was wondering if any of u suspension experts could confirm what type they are.....

About dampening, few wks back i turned the tops of this supsension a little anti clockwise, if i remember correctly, and for two turns or there abouts i thought i could feel a slight difference (marginal but it felt like it was there). This was done using vice grips as there are no "knobs" on the top of the suspension.

Would be great if someone could confirm them....as i want to sell them off and get some normal stiff suspension.

Cheers, David.

i am 90% sure they are not HAs. to adjust the dampening you don't need vice grips. there is a little knurled knob on the top with a allen key type hole in the middle. you turn it with your fingers and it clicks as you turn it.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
