  2. Hey guys, Photos below: Got this car from the auctions, grey import, has skyline printed all over but rego doesn't specify model, it's listed only as 2002 Nissan sedan so I'm not sure what model I should be looking at for parts etc. It's obviously been modified by previous owner, suspension has been lowered, possibly chopped, don't know for sure. Local mechanic sent me this photo after I took it in for a service and told me the front suspension (mainly bushes) are destroyed, and the steering column is about to fall off... He's said it'll take 6 weeks to source bushes/bushings for repair from Nissan, but doesn't seem sure about what parts will suit... Any advice on what model's parts will be compatible and where to source them? Possibly quicker/cheaper? Or a recommendation for a more specialised mechanic? Any help would be much appreciated, I'm at a loss! Thanks
  3. Hi all, looking for stock R33 GTS-T front and rear suspension (shocks/springs) - thank you!
  4. I’ve seen comments previously about changing the mounting locations of the LCA’s and wanted to get some knowledgeable comments. Front: Moving the bolt location on the subframe outwards by approx 20mm ?? Will the existing holes get welded or just drill out fresh points. Rear: Welding on a dropped mounting bracket the front mounting point fro the rear LCA? Will this cause issues with the alignment of the rear mounting bushes. Car is 90% Street / 8% Drag / 2% Track but 100% enjoyed. Already fitted: MCA XR coilovers, hardrace Castor arms, GKTech rear camber & traction arms. Thanks in advance.
  5. Just removed from my 34gtr only to go for a more drag oriented shock.. perfect working order except for one damaged plug as pictured , couldn't see it being an issue to fix $1500 anthony 0404444555 sydney
  6. I bought an M35 last week and after trolling the forums all weekend I have a couple newb questions about brakes and suspension.... Looks like I'm running stock brakes at the moment and when I brake the car will shudder quite a bit, I haven't been able to get the car in the air yet, but I'm assuming it's warped rotors. I'm a why replace when you can upgrade sort of guy and from hunting around the boards it seems the 350z calipers and are a straight bolt on apart from possibly needing wheel spacers? Are there any specifics I need to know? Year range, model variants etc? I've also noticed a clunk in the suspension somewhere, looking at the notes from a service last year the mechanic said the was a knock in front shocks, so I'm assuming I'll be up for new suspension very soon. This is going to be my daily school bus/shopping trolley (got motorbikes for when I want to go proper fast), so I don't want it to be too stiff. I've seen a lot of people here recommend BC coilovers. I ran the V1's in my RS Liberty with Whiteline everything and even on the softest damper setting it was still quite hard (To be fair I'd stripped a lot of weight out of the RS, could have something to do with it?). Is any sort of ride comfort possible int he Stagea with the BC's? Or should I look at getting some Bilsteins with circlip grooves machined into them? She's booked in at a good mechanic late next week for a proper going over, but I'd love to have a bit of info myself before then. Anyway I guess I should post some pics.
  7. Hello All, Big noob here and first post, I bought a r34 25 gtt and the front suspension is a HKS hiper-d (The ones seen below on the right) My rear suspension now is completely stuffed, and I'm looking to replace the rears with the same HKS Hiper-D. I found two posts on facebook selling similar (the same?) HKS purple coilovers. One of them is marked as a HKS drag coilover s13/180sx and looks like the middle pair seen below: and the other one is advertised as the R33 gtst suspension and looks like the one on the outside. Which one should I buy? would the s13/180sx work on my car? also, my friend said that maybe my car has the rear suspension placed on the front by accident. Is that possible?
  8. Hi all mates; I wonder if any of you knows the codes of the OEM coilovers for this model. I mean, I checked amayama for the parts and in the manual there's different parts with different numbers. I don't wanna buy racing / sport because they're running around 1500k for a decent set but my car isn't that expensive anymore and my issue is only in the back and is a daily driver. I can't see why spend that much is suspension parts. I also don't know if the back left/right parts side are the same or not. Otherwise, is any of you able to direct me to some parts up to 700 dollars? By your experience, is it possible to find it? thanks in advance
  9. Item: Buzzspec suspension for GTR 32 Location: Melb Item Condition: average Price and Payment Conditions: $250.00 ONO Extra Info: For sale the suspension that came with my car when i bought it 8 years ago. I have moved to Tein height adjustables. Buzz Spec adjustable bound coil overs. Looks like Jap versions of current KYB adjustables. The ride height on a R32 GTR was great, looked very mean. One front strut adjuster is not serviceable Bushes look good for their age.
  10. Hi, I have a creaking problem in the front end of my suspension when I'm travelling at low speeds eg. Car park, speed humps and more specifically turning left at those lower speeds. I believe it is coming from the front right end of suspension. I have a couple of pictures attatched with the suspected parts and was wondering what would most likely cause these issues and the names of the part in the pictures if it's one of these. The cars steering wheel also shakes above 100km/hr. I had a tie rod end and new tyres put on all around with a wheel alignment and problems still persist. The tyres are just cheap ones but regardless I believe the problem lies in the suspension. I don't have the stock wheels on, and I believe the car is lowered 10mm if that information is useful.

Does anyone know part numbers for Axis variant or failing that, am i able to fit the BC BR coilovers and ordinary AWD M35 parts as replacement on the Axis, not sure what the differences with suspension between Axis and normal are.

I woud like somthing that lowers -40/-40 just for it to be equal (dont want coilovers because of some laws with TUV) have alsow spoken with TEIN about custom lowering springs and got back that they coud make one of thise SKN78-G1B00 RATE: 2.5/3.1kgf RIDE HEIGHT: –40/-20mm SKN78-S1B00 RATE: 3.1/3.8kgf RIDE HEIGHT: –51/-25mm I woud like to lower the car "straigth" and not so it looks like it have a nose dive, but im not sure if you need to lower it more in front then the back because of weigth? Any imput woud be awsome!

Wil the Atessa system f**k up if the wheels are diffrent siced? For exampel if i ave 17x8.5 front and 17x9 in the back?
  14. For sale are these BC coilovers for an R34 gtt. Included in the sale is the lengthened adjsuters for the rear to allow you to adjust the dampers without removing the rear seats. Overall good condition, no noticeable leaks. Im happy to post anywhere in the country. Cheers Ben
  15. Was given these but are un needed. Apparently pulled off an R34 GTT years ago. I have a Sedan and the parcel shelf appears a bit different so I was unable to test fit. Looks like it may fit on other models but don't have one around to test. Front fits 100% on my sedan however. Looking for $300 ono for the pair. Pickup Greensborough/Box Hill/Wantirna upon appointment.
  16. Hello, I just need to make sure I am looking at the right part number. Does this match the rear outer tie rod bushes in the uprights.? I need to replace them. 55154-30p00
  17. I recently bought an R33 GTST and I'm trying to get my car road worthy'd in the ACT currently and i was told i have insufficient ground clearance. The only part that that is insufficient is the massive exhaust that was fitted before i purchased the car by about 1-1.5cm when it was on 205/55/16s. I have since fitted 225/40/18s to the car and it has had an improvement but not by a huge amount. I discovered that the springs have been chopped (when one fell out going around a round about) to an unknown height. So I am now looking at the 30mm lowered King springs to replace the chopped springs and would like to know what the distance from centre of the wheel to the arch would be. As my springs have been chopped i have no idea what a 3cm drop would look like on my car TL;DR : Don't know if king springs will be too low, what's the expected height Also, if anyone has some stock springs lying around that i could purchase hit me up because i would like to go to coilovers in the near future and only need the springs to pass RW
  18. Hi, I'm cleaning out some of my old stuff at my parents place while I'm back in the country for a week. All these parts have been lying around since 2004 when I had a r34. Parts taken off a 1998 r34 gtt. Full suspension kit - struts and springs (stock) Good Condition - changed with an aftermarket kit at approx 20,000kms Exhaust System (stock) minus cat converter - changed with an aftermarket exhaust at approx 20,000kms - good nic internally, does have quite a bit of surface rust. Parts below - Not off my car but were given to me. Air flow meter Starter Motor Air Condition cluster dash face I will consider "reasonable" offers. Best to contact me direct using Whatsapp +971567457182 for more info, I can send pics etc. I'm here for about another weeks so would like to move the stuff before I leave. Item location is - Belmont, Brisbane 4153.
  19. Hi All, Been a while since I posted, so I thought I'd give you an update on the Wags. Rego was coming up fast and I couldn't figure out what the big knock in the suspension was so I ended up ordering a set of BC BR's because it seems like the easiest option. Between ordering and them arriving I slipped a couple discs in my back and had to get a mechanic to do the install. After telling him a few times I really didn't want it any lower He set the rear about an inch off full height of the coilovers and levelled the front to match. This is at least an inch lower than it was. I was already scrapping the rear bar getting in my driveway, so I wasn't looking forward getting in the yard, but damn, she looked pretty good. After beating the exhaust and the rear bar a few times I thought putting a sleeper along the driveway might help and for a couple days it did. Until I went on a bit too much of an angle and kicked the sleeper up. So um. If anyone has a rear bar going cheap... Otherwise I'm going to have to learn how to fibreglass in a hurry.
  20. Hey SAU!! Was installing my wheels on my Ecr33 Skyline over the weekend and noticed a small play in my upper kingpin. Unfortunately I dont seem to have the proper terminology or part name to find anything on google. Il include a picture to make sure we are referring to the same part. If someone could put me on the right track it would be greatly appreciated!
  21. Hello all, I'm currently in the process of getting parts together to fit to my car ready for fitting and alignment. I have some thoughts as the best setup for track, time attack, sprints etc but want to confirm i'm going about it the right way. The parts I'll get: R33 rear cradle - with offset bushes and possibly a reinforcing kit GKTech front upper control arms for camber adjustment Whiteline front and rear anti roll bars I was going to modify the front upper control mounts to be the same as the nismo items - to gain hopefully even better front geometry when combined with adjustable upper arms. Adjustable rear upper arms to change rear camber Any thoughts on fitting front R33 lower control arms or should i think about roll centre adjusters for the standard arms? I have the usual front and rear strut braces, coilovers etc. big brakes being fitted shortly. At this stage i'm avoiding fitting a cage but might in the future - however I may fit a A piller brace set from ultraracing.. The mods listed are inspired from SAU and other sites on the web. I'd like to have the car setup as well as possible from the get go and then just tweek from there. Thanks

  23. Guys and Girls, As topic states, I am chasing a set of used coilovers for my R32 GTR. Either Ohlins Flag-R, or NISMO R-tune, nothing else. Would prefer used, purely because of cost, but they would have to be in good condition. ie. no leaks. But if you have a new set, it cant hurt to offer. Let me know what you have and what you are asking for them. Cheers Damo.
  24. I have made this thread to hopefully educate not only myself, but to educate all skyline enthusiasts in general. What i'm hoping to do is create a list of parts that are interchangeable between the different models of skylines, whether they be coupe/sedan or turbo/na and start a general discussion on what some of the available options are for us (if any at all). I know that s13/s14/s15 have an outstanding list of interchangeable modifications between the three different models and I am somewhat trusting there is some compatibility between models for our skylines. I realize this may have already been done on another thread and if so someone please link me to the specific thread. I myself have started this topic because i have a naturally aspirated 1999 R34 GT-V Sedan and was wondering what coil overs i should use, or if possible just drop in aftermarket coil overs from say from an earlier model skyline? I also have a few queries on the exhaust system on how they differ from each model and if they differ from coupe to sedan? Anyhow, any information on any parts that are interchangeable regarding skylines please discuss below! i guess starting with the suspension wouldn't hurt though haha! Any information provided will be extremely helpful not only to me but im sure lots of others too. Thanks in advance
