  1. Hey mat just bend gas struts a little then bonnet will stay up when needed. Old mechanics trick works fine!! and no one will ever know. The heat under bonnet destroys gas struts. note I bet your tail gate ones work fine.
  2. Good advise form Kiwi rs4 especially radiator and larger trans cooler. I would also suggest not towing with the overdrive button on. and just drive slower in 3rd! Most manufactures recommend not using overdrive when towing. Interesting enough Holden don't recommend towing in sixth gear in their V8's ( sixth gear must be piss weak!) Electric brakes won't need to be worried about with just a 6x4. They are required more for large caravans, large boats, yachts etc. The safest things I have found with towing is to drive slowly and not be in a rush to avoid the scary as hell! jack knifing or speed wobbles. Have towed many thousands of km's with a large boat and car trailers with two scary exsperiences!! But now I just take it easy! Have a good safe journey
  3. Your a legend cheers chook thanks heaps
  4. Cheers chook!still confused! wish they just made one tie rod end RRRR! I would presume early S1 would use r33 and later model S2 would use r34......can you still work out which ones fit if I give you my vin??
  5. Any one no if the tie rod ends are r32/33 gtr ??????????????????????????? please!! will post up correct part numbers when eventually sorted
  6. will pm have ordered some from auto pro but book only says 2.6l r32 and 2.6l r33 hope they fit as they are only $25 each. Anyone got any more info??
  7. tie rod ends - part number - 4852023U26 Found these part numbers for tie rod ends are they correct?
  8. Hey does any one know what tie rod ends stag c34 rs4 s1 uses. went to get wheel alignment rhs shagged and nissan want like $150 per side F that. Any help or part numbers would be very helpful. I presume they are probably the same as r33gtr any help ???
  9. Have these springs in front of my s1 stag well the kDFL-101 (low) ones anyway because they have a higher spring rate than the super lows. This may help people standard stag front spring rate is 165lbs standard rear springs rate 170lbs linear (not progressive like kings) kings KDFL-101 front 180lbs super low fronts only have a spring rate of 140lbs this is to allow fore more compression as the super lows and lows spring lengh is exactly the same and the springs that are any shorter cant be used as they are not caged in the strut and will float around (not safe) not 100% sure on those rear spring rates but I would presume they would be around 180lbs to 200lbs another option for the rear may well be KDRL-87 200lbs spring rate (z32/300zx) tapered spring (88mm-77mm) the king springs are available from auto pro for $150 per pair summing up they do work but not 100% ideal because when lowering a 20 to 30% increase is more ideal stag front springs would actually be an upgrade for an a R33/34 My question is ?? those R32 rear springs that were used are they tapered??? they must be otherwise they would rub! any idea of the taper??
  10. Well you won't get high!! if you plan on sniffing the opal !! but you could just take some octane booster with you to add to opal fuel like 104+ octane boooster
  11. SA the c34 state not the festival state!!!
  12. Probably voltage regulator! they tend to charge intermitently when on the way out. I would personally run a dual battery system if you are running a fridge then your primary battery would remain with enough charge to always start the stag thats what I run in my hilux its good piece of mind, but dont know where you would put second battery boot/etc. I use the red arc microprocesser to control my battery's it works well and not to expensive.You could also just use one of those jump start/powerpacks to run fridge!
  13. Japaneaseimportspares.com in Adelaide have some coilovers stag specific $1000 2 sets last time I checked looked new(I would get the ones with the softest spring rate) or if you want billsteins go to car torque nth terrace and get r32gtr fronts(valving closer to stag than33gtr) and gtst 33 rears be hard and ask for a good price. F**k giving pedders $2500 big ones
  14. Agreed much heavier rear swaybar best cost effective handling mod and recommended to all!! Stag is actually fun to drive through hills!! now!1(does not handle like a taxi) Car tourque still has three of those custom rear swaybars for c34 stag 2 ajustable and 1 none. paid $260 watch out when I went to pick it up they tried to charge me $300 wtf!
