Hi guys,

I'm selling the bilstein set-up on my GTR. It's been a great set-up for road and track but I'm stepping things up a notch now with some more hard corey suspension. They are height adjustable via circlip retained spring platforms. They are in good shape with no leaks or problems what so ever. A compareable kit would cost around $1600 and up new. I'm asking $1100. No pics as yet as they are still on my car, but anyone is welcome to come and take a look (sydney, lower north shore) and they can be removed with a days notice. Also anyone who looks at my trader rating I'm sure would know that I wouldn't over sell any of my parts. They are tip top.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought that the coilovers from Bilstein were custom made to fit the right car?

Would they be able to fit a R33GTST? Or are they only setup for GTR's?

Cheers

Hi aquariuz. Unfortunately I dont think they will fit 33 GTST. From memory GTST use an eye style set-up on the bottom shock mounts all round, where as GTR use fork style on the rear. I think nissan desinged things this way to stop people using GTR parts on GTST :( Either way, you are right, they would not be perfectly suited for GTST anyway.

Hi Ecenshu, not 100% sure on the exact rates but can check them once they are out. From memory they are 6K front and 5K rear. These were not from the sydney kid group buy. and I can assure you the valving in them is lovely :laugh:

update. new suspension arrived yesterday arvo, so the bilteins will be out and ready for postage/pick-up some time next week.

if you are after a good, proven set-up for your GTR then dont miss out as these are a bargain at $1100.

well since you asked, I'll let the pics do the talking. Nismo G Attack R-Tune branded Ohlins. 4 way adjustment. all alloy shocks. remote canisters. 600 different levels of adjustment per shock... etc. the holy grail of GTR suspension... lol

haha, this has now turned into the Beer Barons new set-up discussion thread! sorry guys, but I must stay on topic.

Bilsteins are coming out this coming week. So anyone who is looking for the gun set-up for their BNR32 GTR can snap up a bargain. These babies really do perform well above their price range. I'm still sceptical if even the mega $$ nismo/ohlins will be any better around a track.

well bilstein removal has been pushed back a week while I get my new stuff dyno'd before i fit them.

anyone who is in sydney and serious about buying them could probably pm me and we can arrange a time for you to come and see/feel them working in the car before I whip them out.

Hey Baron - are these still for sale & also do you have the part numbers for the dampers (eg B46-1672 & B46-1673 or similar).

    • Can't see that being a thing.
    • My fob has never worked, I once attempted to follow the procedure to re-key it, (I have other fobs for the car alarm thing in there). I actually have three of them. Do aftermarket alarms take over the pairing mechanism for central locking? Or do they piggyback off it? I suppose it depends on the system, right? I have four sets of keys/keyfobs. One definitely works, one I think works, one definitely doesn't work, and I have the OEM one that has never worked :p. Is this fixable/workable/whatever? I mean I know it's beyond "just clean it" but how *do* they get synced up?
    • It's actually a really weird comparison... the MX5 is on another level and I kinda question this comparison at all. It'd be closer to compare it to a GTI/Golf/Hatch anything that kicks around. NC MX5 with a turbo has the right to go up with and beat the FD RX7 or 180SX or any other JDM hero car. That's the comparison that would really ruffle feathers.
    • @MBS206 you need more shed in your life... What sort of car is your mates race car?  Hopefully he returns the favour when you're ready to get cracking on yours! None of my mates are into cars so I don't have to worry about that as a distraction thankfully.  I have enough other distractions so I don't need that one too!  Between working 6 days a week (5 1/2 really so 55 hours or so per week), both kids have basketball almost every week night (including Friday night in Melbourne - 2 hours away), my daughter plays netball as well, my sons footy has started now and I coach his under 14's side as well as I'm on the Footy club committee this year, I ride motorbikes every spare Sunday I can find, plus trying to be some sort of a husband.  Life is a busy little exercise at the moment!  I wish there were 8 or 9 days in a week sometimes!
    • Ha ha, that is very true!  I'm too scared to leave it in the position though, it tingles my balls seeing it like that!
