Tein NR's... Adjustable??

[EVL R33]

Hi,

I have a set of Tein NR's on my car and was originally told that they are height adjustable. The car got serviced this week and I asked the guys to raise it up a bit cause it scrapes on everything. Anyway they told me when I picked it up that it isn't height adjustable, it's just one setting....

Does anyone have NR's and can tell me if they are or are not adjustable???

Cheers

I think you mean HR Brett.

I've got HA driving master kit on the GTR (Including castor rods...thanks for the pick up on that one GTRKen !!) which are height and damper adjustable.

Have a look at one of the rear shocks, specifically the bit where the spring is stopped at the bottom. They are height adjust. if there are two movable spring seats, the one closest to the bottom of the spring (the top ring) is the bigger one. The bottom ring locks the top one off at the height selected.

What a poor explanation.

Basically you unlock the bottom ring then wind the top spring seat up or down to the desired height then screw the locking ring (bottom one) back into place and viola new ride height.

Unfortunately the TEIN NR shocks are not adjustable...here is some info for you

Boostmeister,

I have read that site, and from what I understood (which isn't a great deal to be honest!!!) they are 4 position adjustable. The link you sent talks about the C RING TYPE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT MECHANISM on NR/NA dampers....

Oh well, not a great problem, I'll just have to keep avoiding most speed bumps, steep driveways and any curbs.....

Ryan,

They are definately NR's... Sounds like you got a good set with the GTR.

I've been crusing around our area hoping to see ya....

Yeah Brett I've been passing by the pub a couple of times at night but I assume I get there too late. I usually roll around after 11pm after work.

Are you sure the 4 adjustments are for height, they may be for damper/ride stiffness??

Sorry for he slight deviation in thread - Do any of you guys with TIENs get spring rattle ??? I have TIEN HAs (Height and Damper adjustable) and I used to get a bit of metal on metal spring rattle - That is until this weekend , I cut some custom rubber from conveyer belt material - Does the trick nicely !!

Hi guys,

I just got some second hand TEIN TYPE NR suspension for my car.

Going to be putting it in tomorrow or saturday.

I've done many a google search and forum search, i can't find instructions on how to actually adjust the height, although i know it's possible.

Do you need a special tool for this? Can anybody explain how? I'll post up pictures of the suspension if that helps?

If memory serves me right NRs are not adjustable

Heres a pic!

I'm guessing i gotta move the silver end cap thingy to the spring side of the notches, then put the little round metal clip on a notch.. the notches further away from the spring lowering the car more?

I have no idea, i'm just guessing here, does that sound right?
