honestly i think it depends on your swaybars and spring rates... and your style... and ride height...some people like it a bit softer, so you can 'throw' the front in a bit more, and the rear harder to accommodate this.

I've previously had my fronts on about half and rear's full soft, with 10kg front and 8kg rear.

after swapping to 8kg front and 6kg rear springs, i've found that the damper is a bit too soft.

I've now stiffened the front damper to about 70% on the front and about. And also because i've lowered the rear a little more i dont have the clearance for the arches to clear my tyres... so i've made them full hard at the rear temporarily - until the rear guard work commences...

it's sort of trial and error - and find what suits the car, the setup, and yourself

Yeah. I understand. I run 6kg in the front now and 4 in the rear. I guess I need to experiment more. But I really don't like it all bouncy and stuff. I get it when I stiffen the dampers up. Sometimes its a bit scary lol.

your a good man huddy, not may would give away their trade secrets like that. my buddy club coil overs have just arrived, cant wait to install them and go for a skid, every one raves about coil overs, but it goes good with cut springs at the rear and lowered s15 front springs with s 14 front control arms.

      I haven't....but a poorly made one would terrify me. Surely a good second hand one is the go, as they don't work hard and no-one wants to keep one after they are finished with it A big consideration would be the weight of the shell you are putting on it....is it a fully dressed chassis or just the body

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Not stock. All remade. Mostly looks stock because the pipes run to and from the standard holes in the inner guard to get to the return flow FMIC. I'm not sure which question you're trying to ask, because it seems like "stock position" vs "stock position".

      Baron's R34 GT-R build thread - car in Japan for 5 years -_-

      By BaronOBeefdip · Posted

      Hey, it's a GT-R, it's just as significant a moment as mine😁 It's not ideal when things are uncertain; I'm the type of person that always has a set plan for things in life so being unsure of this plan puts me in a weird place mentally.

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By Wazmond · Posted

      Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?

      Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card style AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had no flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
