The Sa Wasteland

[skylineguy19]

hey luke, thanks for the reply on last page. I'm looking for new coilovers, nothing 2nd hand, so if you can get anything for under the price of ISC's or around the same but better items i would be interested.

Cheers.

[Luke_ENR34]

what coilovers you use for your 31? are they from a s13?

What kind of adjustment you want?

[skylineguy19]

yeah s13, after full adjustable, the ones i have now only have camber, height and castor.

Want to have base height adjustable, damper plus everyhting these already have.

[Luke_ENR34]

is it s13 front and rear?

Should be able to get cusco's for under 2k. think i paid 1800 for mine (will have to check)

I reckon the mods should implement new rules for buying/selling. Any member with less than 100 posts can't buy or sell.

That would certainly save me alot of headaches with rip-offs and buyers who misuse the words "definitely want it" and "consider it sold".

Thats the new rule I'm setting for myself now anyway. I won't deal with new members anymore, and they'll only be face-to-face transactions.

I've tried to push for this quite some time ago but unfortunately it was like talking to a brick wall.

I WANT RB25!! had my first drive in one today! so jelous!

Its quite a step from the 20 to the 25 with regards to spool, mid range and general doodling torque.

Now do that again with the 30.

Can anyone here get a good price for Hawke HPS brake pads?

There was a Group Buy on these I reckon but he couldn't help on the GTR's with Brembos.

haha no worries champ anytime

Installed the splitfire's and the ISC coilovers today with some much appreciated help from ryan (we love u). Some good company and great group of ppl

yep, hj's and bj's all round for me

Thanks for the reply Luke.....I already bought it cause I was told it was the best on the market (definitely the dearest).

I didn't realize there were so many features to setup......I suppose your mate set it up himself so at some stage I'll sit down with the instructions & have a go.

On the matter of belts, waterpump & gears, we may have to have a chat about your rates sometime Ryan.......I've got a workshop full of gear but no time to scratch myself lately.

yea pete no problem! ive been meaning to sus your beast out sometime soon aswell.

Went to my uncles last night (drove with my dodgy front bar ). My cousin just bought a 2000 WRX. Before he bought it, the car yard connected up an oil pressure gauge that wasn't working. My cousin pulled everything apart to fit a stereo, and noticed that oil was EVERYWHERE, im talking inside the dash, console, under the carpet, and pooling under the back seat, inside the stereo plugs and all over the cables etc. He's gonna take it back to them, probably the most dodgy gauge hook up i've seen. I told him to follow the line back through the firewall, cut it and tie it off so he can at least drive it. Just a dodgy story for everyone.

[scandyflick]

dare i ask where he purchased said vehicle?

[Damo_R34]

Im not sure Dave, might find out then send out PM's

Ahhhhhh why dont you just get ISC's??

[ISC-Performance]

that sucks dave.

Does anyone know any coilover places? Looking to upgrade in the 31, been thinking racing logic, isc or D2, anyone know of anywhere good to go and possible mates rates? ENR Luke, im looking your direction Or any other suggestions welcome.

wouldnt recommend D2 or RL as they are a generic product where as ISC is manufactured by ISC! We are also based locally In SA so quik delivery and If anything did ever go wrong we are right around the corner.

Ryan

[Damo_R34]

+1 For ISC's, im sure Scott will agree!

Pretty sure ive heard of D2's bending also!!

[cruzin33]

is it true having adjustable tops on coilovers is a bad thing as they can came loose?

[Damo_R34]

I need some ideas. My washer bottle has been ripped out now, as the piping for the cooler won't allow it to fit back in front of the RH guard. Any R34 owners want to share what they have done? I was gonna do a custom 2L coke bottle job but might get something more reliable!

Should never come loose if installed correctly and the parts used are of high quality.

[Ryanrb25]

i helped scott wack in his ISC coilovers yesterday and i was quite surprised at the quality of them, so many points of adjustment and build quality was some of the best ive seen. Expect a phone call from me tax time Ryan.

[Nonie_13]

Agreed Extremely happy with the service top bloke and cheap for the quality behind it.

[craig R33]

how is it, a popular automotive parts dealer told me they no longer stock plain rotors for 33 skyline.

if i want new ones a have no choice but to get slotted or drilled...at a cost of 289 ea!

this little pimpley runt annoyed the shit out of me.
