hooray car is lowered!

I think its down to 340mm

Worried about the front as i have a feeling they might hit the lip if i turn wheel and hit a bump.. ^^,

Now i need to fit on the typeM skits/rear pods + spoiler and it will be all good :P

rolling i can deal with, but not really keen on flarring..

Can you post a pic of a closer look at the flarring?

Also how low is your car from centre to wheel arch?

I think my shocks will drop the height to 340mm and hope i wont need to flare..

Thanks

oi i rekon those URAS's were perfect offset and size for the rear, looks real tough, u can either play around with the rear camber to slip them under or get the guards rolled, although i have to say, i didnt have any issues with mine before i rolled my gaurds, im running around -1 degree of camber. u definitely wont need flaring.

this is mine when i had those wheels before Rekin (17x8/9 +30):

now with some modenas which are soon to be sold aswell (17x8.5/9.5 +45/+38, fronts with 25mm spacers):

next on my list will be something around the 17x9 +20 mark which will sit out another 10mm at the rear from both of those rear wheels and a few mm further than where those fronts are sitting in the 2nd pic.

340mm is best height for r32 in terms of handling. Refer to sydneykid's posts etc for detailed information :whistling:
yep spot on, mine in those pics is the recommended height, using SK's GB kit.

yep I got SK's whiteline set up too

Just took car for drive, mine are scrubbing bad at front.

Any dips in the road and then you hear a creeking noise coming from the fronts.

Not sure if its scrubbing or perhaps the springs/shocks? as it seems to only come from the front right?

Guess its rolling lip on the weekend ~_~

Bummer dude, take the front wheels off and see if there is any damage on the tyres or body both inner and outer, i know that on a certian amount of lock my wheels touch the side skirts, on full they just tap the inner metals and over crazy massive bumps they might just tap the plastic under the guard... but ive got crazy stiff coilovers :(

Hey Rekin, I think your problem could be something to do with your shocks mate. Did you purchase second hand shocks and springs or new?

2nd hand kyb shocks with 2nd hand hks springs.

Perhaps i should get a suspension check done at Pedders?

    • Nah, just take the other one off too 
    • Oh yeah forgot to also mention need to also unplug the IACV as well. Thanks for the reminder @MBS206 Unplugging the TPS takes it out of closed loop so you're able to screw down the IACV without the ECU trying to add/subtract timing to maintain the idle (not sure PowerFC can even do this, but Nistune and the OEM definitely does)
    • For sale is my 1999 Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T, tuned to 234 kW / 313 hp. I've had the car for a few years as my daily driver. The car is original (as far as Skylines go), with only a few minor upgrades to enhance performance and driving experience, as typical for such a car of its age. Overall, it is in great condition with no body rust, thanks to its earlier import date. It features a top-notch security system (not literally, but it's great!) with remote start and still functional 4-wheel steering via HICAS. It comes with several performance and handling upgrades, including:     Hypergear 450HP Turbocharger running 17 PSI boost, installed mid-2021 by Jaustech     550cc injectors     Nistune ECU     Front-Mount Return-Flow Intercooler     X-Force Stainless Steel Exhaust     Upgraded engine mounts     Bottom end bearings replaced     BC Coilovers     Lenso DR1 rims     Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin RE003 TL 245/40R18 97W tires, fitted early 2023 The interior is mostly stock, with a few additions:     Viper Satellite Tracking System with remote start     Bluetooth Double-Din Touchscreen Head Unit     Steering wheel cover Cons:     A few paint imperfections here and there     Driver’s seat shows more wear than the others. It's not torn at all, but I've added a seat cover to protect its condition. I also have a CarVX Vehicle History report available for serious buyers, so you don’t need to purchase it yourself. Price: $26,000 ONO.
    • I've had two suzukis in the past have an extremely hard time turning over and not starting after sitting for a few weeks. Ended up the alternator would seize up causing the starter to force. Same issue both times.  Maybe they're sourcing their alternators from the same place...
