R34 Coilovers

[coOkies]

Hey there guys,

Since you guys all pro's . ..

I'm a girl and new to this and not sure, well one questions bugging my mind, I'm changing coilovers to new ones on my R34 GT. Teins . and will A coilover for r34 GTT fit on mine? or do I need to get a specific r34 GT (NA) coilover for my car?/..

Thanks in advance for helping !!!

From what I know, the GTt and GT coilovers should be the same. GTR's different. So if you've got a GT and can only find GTt coilovers, they should be fine. Even four door and two door, they should be the same if they're both GT/GTt. If you've got a GT4, either four door or two, you should get GTR coilovers.

Correct me if I'm wrong guys.

Edit: Don't listen to what I just said. It's wrong...

The R34GT's I have seen have all had eyes on the lower rear shocks, whereas R34GTT's have forks, same as R34GTR's (and R33GTR's).

^^ thats correct. Gt (N/a) have different rear coilover setup to the said gt-t and gtr. Correct me if im wrong but you MAY get away with using an r33 aftermarket set.

So u guys reckon GTT using the same shock/ coilover as GTR 33/34?

Im new to R34 GTT sedan

They will fit, but they won't "work". With close to 200 kgs more weight over the front wheels R33/34GTR front spring and damper rates are just not suitable for a 2WD. Then you have the rear, a 2 door coupe is hardly the same as a 4 door sedan.

coilovers for gtt's are different to the gt's. the fronts will fit ok but the rears require different length. If you cant find set of coilovers for the gt, maybe speak to SydneyKid about an altenative setup

lol sorry I just read that SydneyKid said similar thing

The R33/34 and Stagea S1 and S2 rear shocks are all the same length as are S14 and S15 Silvias.

The R34GT has bushes at the lower mount on the rear shock like R33GTST and S1 Stagea autos

The R34GTT has a fork the lower mount on the rear shock like R33/34GTR, S2 Stagea manuals and 260RS

Yep, R34GTS4 's are non turbo hence the same as R34GT's.

What about the 4-Door, Can some one sum it all up...

IE.

R34 GT-* (2 Door) =

R34 GT-* (4 Door) =

R34 GT-t, GTR Ect. (2-Door) =

R34 GT-t, GT-X (4-Door) =

I Guess the Q I'm asking is are the 2 & 4 Doors the same; also are there any differences between RWD and AWD?

[driftmeister]

The R34 GTT 2 dr & 4 dr has the same suspension setup. However for the R34GT (Na) they uses a different one probably a R33Gts type for the rear only. The reason is one of our mates has the GT NA and he has to get a different type than the GTT.

the r34 2 and 4 door are the same i guess..

R34 GT (2 Door) = Eye Eye

R34 GT (4 Door) = Eye Eye

R34 GT-t (2-Door) = Eye Fork

R34 GT-t (4-Door) = Eye Fork

R34GTS4 (2 door) = Eye Eye

R34GTS4 (4 door) = Eye Eye

R34GTR (2 door) = Eye Fork

The spring and damper rates are different for 2 doors and 4 doors, as they should be.

The 4wd's have shorter front shocks to fit the driveshafts in.

Im looking at getting coilovers for my r34 GT (2 door, non turbo).

So following this information, the GT-T coilovers wont work.

Does anybody know where abouts i can get some to suit a GT, as i only seem to be able to find them for the turbo model.

[Silver_GT]

r33 gtst coilovers are what you need champ. Slip right in.

Ah nice, what are the best to go for?

Teins?

[iseekool]

Does anyone have Bilstein part numbers for a Non-turbo R34 sedan - running standard height?
