Hey. looking at getting some tein RS suspension for my r32 GTR as they have come up fairly cheap. Are these any good? The asking price is $750, they are obviously second hand. The car will be used on both road and track but setup leaning more towards track, ride comfort does not bother me. Advice?

I know of a car using them, and several using the similar RA shocks. Std they are reasonable things, but the car i know that runs them has had them tweaked in the valving and spring department and they are about the most impressive shock i have been in.

The thing is very nice on the street, and at the track its beautifully balanced looking at the in car vids and the lap times it does.

So at their asking price i woudl grab them and get them rebuilt....if you dont PM me because i will buy them (Seriously!)

Buy them and rebuild them :cheers:

I have a set of them in my r33 and they are unbelievably good :)

they have separate Compression and Rebound Damping Force Adjustability; total of 256 different kinds of damping force settings (16 levels for compression x 16 levels for rebound) are available, by adding the systems both at base valve and piston rod. Use of specially shaped needle valve enables linear damping force adjustment at each and every 16 levels.

Im running 10/10kg spring rate, which some people think are little excessive but i find it perfect :D

i have yet to play around with the damper and rebound setting yet, as i have only had the car at a skid pad day and drift day and so far leaving the rebound and damper both of the softest setting works very good. when i get out for some timed races i have a go at playing around with the setting and see if it helps with my times.

also atm im daily driving my r33 again, as im in the processes of upgrading my daily and the ride isn;t that bad at all :D (not as bumpy as you would think)

Cheers Michael

i will sell you TEIN HA suspension

height and camber adjustable

Cheers but chasing something a bit more high spec. And camber is adjusted by the upper arm on GTR's so the coilovers that are made for them cant be camber adjustable...

      2020 Nissan Skyline 400R V37/Infiniti Q50 RS insurance in NSW

      Yeah they sure are available for import now, its great news Matt, You need an import specialist insurer, nothing has really changed over the years about the mainstream insurance companies not touching them. I have my cars with Lumley (same group as NRMA etc) because they insure imports and have a good concept of "stable use" where as long as no more than 2 cars are being driven each day you can have them all on a good rate, I've also had no issues with claims through them. Note they won't insure a car if you take it to the track, even for an off track claim. Shannons are another option but I had a lot of trouble with their claims (they were happy to take the premiums, not so keen to pay out), and I'm sure there are other import specialists too

      Do You Play An Instrument?

      By Rezz · Posted

      I'm a lifelong home drummer, was in a couple of bands as a teenager/early 20's then moved to Japan and didn't play at all until 2019 when my missus and I were invited to check out the band room upstairs at a restaurant cafe here in JP. They had a full acoustic drum kit and they let me have a bash for about 20 mins. I went away from there wondering how I could not play for 19 years.... Missus bought me a e-drum kit a few weeks later (Yamaha DTX402) which is basic but lets me play at home in my tiny Japanese house.  Also have an Epiphone Les Paul and little Vox amp and delay pedal I bought for the missus because she wanted to learn to play the guitar, but she never got into it. That was about 8 years ago. I taught myself to play some 80's U2 song riffs like the Fly solo, etc and some other things but being a drummer I don't really have the dexterity in the fingers lol. Ham fisted if you will. So I kind of just mess around with the guitar rather than try to seriously play complete songs. My son on the other hand inherited all my side of the family's musical talent and is a brilliant classical pianist at 16 years old. He'll go on to do something in the music industry here for sure once he finished his schooling. I got him a Yamaha NU1XA hybrid piano earlier this year.

      Blow Off Valve Is Causing Car To Stall!

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      If the BOV is plumbed in as mentioned, like stock.... why exactly would it stall? It'd be like stock. Do stock cars stall with stock bovs?

      You mean a rich spike, as the air has been metered multiple times due to the turbulent air, you end up injecting more fuel causing a momentary dip in torque and quite possibly a stall event. TL;DR, install a Haltech Elite or S3 or R3, convert to DBW, throw all ancient shit into the bin and enjoy the car.
