[rgr34]

Been looking at lowering and upgrading suspension..... i was initially just goin to get king springs and use stock shocks but have decided to do it once and do it properly.......im looking at coilover options but from reading a few threads all the coilovers seem to have spring rates not suited to street use......just want to now ppls experiences with coilovers in there r34 sedans and recommendations......

It will be the same as any other Skyline really. I decided to go for King springs a Bilstein shockies due to the theory that coilovers are too hard for our roads. I've recently put some uprated sway bars in which makes up for the lack of firmness by reducing body roll but gives you the advantage that you have a softer ride over the bumps. I think this is better than just coilovers, not sure how it compares on price. Probably pretty similar.

yeh seems like spring rates on coilovers are abit much for daily driving but quite a few ppl have them and some brands are better than others...... abo bob in ur car u got king lows or super lows??? lows dont seem to lower the car much at all.....

I'm got Tein Super Streets on my 34 and so have a few other 34 owners I know. Spring rates are 5k F and 4K R which are firm but not overly stiff. The ride comfort is almost comparable to stock ride as experienced by a few ppl riding in my car which in turn have made them choose the Teins.

whats the price on teins.....i seen em for like $1900 is that to much??

tein super streets FTW would be a pretty comfortable ride in terms of how stiff they are for aussie roads
