Dont worry Atiomic, the ones in the pic are for a gtr, the 32 gtr has a loop for the front and the u shape for the rear mounts.

thanks clint for verifying that for me! i was a little bit worried there for a moment. on another note, i remember when i changed the springs on my s14. when i removed the stock springs from the stock damper, i found that the springs had plastic tubing on the ends where they bedded against the supports of the damper mounts. when i put the tein springs in, i didnt bother replacing the plastic tubing, resulting in a lot of spring noise, when going over bumps slowly eg speed bumps, do coilovers make this this kind of sound too? are they noisy?

Depends on how fast you go over them:D Normal speed (ie slow) no noise.

I HAVE OHLINS FITTED TO MY R32 GTR AND I THINK THEY ARE VERY GOOD. I MAINLY ONLY USE THE CAR FOR MOTOR SPORT. BECAUSE THE REBOND IS SO EASY AND QUICK TO ADJUST I WOULD SAY THAT THEY ARE BY FAR THE BEST ALL ROUND

[AtomicBomberMan]

benny are yours spring and damper or coilover? what are the spring rates in yours?

[benny gtr]

MINE ARE COIL OVER. DONT KNOW THE SPRING RATE

BomberMan,

I have these in my 32 GTR, i had just recently had them rebuilt by Reco Shock shop at Slacks creek(southside of brisbane) and they are a firm ride but not bone rattling and if you enjoy driving the GTR, the way a GTR is built to tbe driven you will never look back.

Cheers

I believe i have the coilovers pictured on the first post of this thread... - anyone know the model ( i know they are ohlins ) or how much they are worth?

Can i add a EDFC to them so i can adjust them from in cabin?

For what its worth i think they are pretty good - my ride definatly isn't too rough or to soft, but i'm not to sure what they are set to.

sorry to bring up an old thread, ive got ohlins coilovers but the front two shocks are leaking. i was wondering if anyone knows anywhere in NSW that can rebiuld them and at what cost, based on your exeperience.

Cheers

how much did it cost, just out of curiosity?

[tom9999]

hey ive got a set of ohlins and the front two struts are blown where can i get them rebuilt in QLD. how much are they worth with lowered king springs and the back two are adjustable.

[T04GTR]

Dave, this thread is from 2003...

and nicely dug up to bamboozle us all by moonus. moonus, in future if a thread is nearly 4 years old, just start a new one.
