Hi All

I drive an R34 GTT - i think its time i have the car lowered as at the moment the car is siting as high as a truck.

I am looking around at my springs, shocks, etc options.

Pedders Sports Ryder kit seem to be the most appealing, i know they're expensive but Kmac seem to be a little more on the cheaper / lower quality side.

Basically I am simply after a low comfortable ride for the street.

Is the Pedders option a little to extreme?

Thanks people. im new to the suspension forums.

I had Pedders Sports Ryder suspension in my car and i was never that happy with it. Used to be really rough when going over train tracks/ rough roads or something, but at high speed the car seemed to kind of "float" on the road and didnt feal like the car was glued down so to speak. Now not sure wether it was a fault or something with the suspension or i was being picky but yeah. However my old man has them in the Monaro and they feal great. Being a totally different car this may have something to do with it. Recently i sold them and went to Tein Super streets and the difference in suspension was unbelievable. Very happy with my decision.

I'd probably suggest either Sydneykids Bilstein Suspesion as every one praises it or go something like the Super Streets.

Hope that helps.

    • But it's much better to use a freedom unit that has four different possible meanings...
    • I would try messing with friction modifier to see if it smooths it out.  Just keep adding more until it stops chattering or grabbing quite so much. If you haven't changed the gear oil in a long time you may as well start there too in case that has anything to do with it. You might want to also verify the initial torque is set to the lowest setting too. Requires popping out one of the CV axles first but that's not too bad. Once you're sure the preload is set to the lowest you can try adding an ounce at a time of friction modifier until it feels right to you.
    • It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.  
    • Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
