How did your car handle with this suspension setup. Comfy or bumpy ride? Much of a drop over stock ride height?

felt good, some of the roads near where i live are pritty rough and it handle nice and firm on the road (not hard like coilovers, and it wasnt like steering a sail boat). i dont know about the stock ride high i think that there was aboot 3 or 4cm's from the gaurd to the wheel?

hope that helped :P

For those interested, I have KYB shocks on the rear on mine, they do a great job, still nice and firm, but give way for those nasty bumps (I live around shitty roads, I know all about bumps and pot holes).

The real squats nicely when giving it a bit and compensates enough to prevent wheelspin, but doesn't feel like a total boat on the corners. It's like a new skyline straight off the factory floor as the original setup was from KYB.

Hope this gives you an idea of how they fair, mine has been on for ~6,000km now and don't miss a beat. Also, mine is standard height.

Cheers,

Ben

    • You need to jam something inside it to stop it collapsing. A washer, a spacer, a something. Needs to stay up at the fully pumped up height. I still say you can measure centrelines with a collapsed hydro lifter. Whatever max lift is will be max lift regardless of the state of the lifter.
    • Yeah, I've been watching him since the first 4 posts all arrived.
    • Quick update Guys , managed to get the water pump replaced . I first my mechanic went back and forth with Nissan AU (4 weeks) and they weren't much help, at the end they noted something about not supporting imports. So I soured the part myself from Japan. If anyone has similar issue here is the part numbers  Genuine Nissan PUMP ASSY-WATER - 21010-4HK0E Genuine Nissan Gasket - 21014-4HK0A  Cost me about $230 including shipping (I had in within 10 days thanks to Blackhawk in Japan)  They are basically the same as the Red Sport or even the new Zed - here is link to a supplier in US who helped me confirm the parts matched  https://www.z1motorsports.com/water-pump-fan-and-thermostat/nissan/oem-14-20-vr30ddtt-water-pump-p-10167.html You can change it yourself if you like , but I had my local workshop do it , it was about 5 hours of labour.  Cheers  Pac
    • +1 for these guys, they just made me a custom muffler for another car (old Merc V8 not a Skyline) and they are legends to work with and do very nice work at a reasonable price.
    • Alright well now I’m confused, some people saying yes and others saying no. How would I modify my hydraulic lifter? Iv already pulled them apart to clean them so I know how to do that but what would I change inside the lifter to make it solid? And how would that work with clearance between the lifter and the cam?
