Guys have sitting in my shed cupboard a complete set of front and rear adjustable Bilstein shocks and matching whiteline springs to fit S1 & S2 Stagea. I bought them a while back and never got round to fitting them as my wife drives the car most the time and doesn't seem to be able to wrap her head around slowing down for bumps. I kept the suspension in the hope that this would change, which is has not. So I can't bring myself to lower the S2 caus I know its jsut going to be hammered if I do.

The whole package has never been fitted to the car and is brand new, even has the original bilstein box.

Package is located on Sunshine Coast in QLD, 4575, but am happy to post at buyers expense. Price is $1000.00 so thats $250 per corner.

Thanks guys

Ben

I am interested. Very interested.

Do you have pics, and postage quote for Adelaide? I posted stock front and rear shocks (2 separate packages) about $30 each from memory (for anyone else who wants to know too). I assume they'd be close to same weight?

How much to ship to Tullamarine (Victoria). i've been looking to lower my car and don't really want to get coilovers

I'll sus it out for ya in the morning. I'm heading to the post office so I'll let you guys know as soon as I do.

Thanks

PS Inmate, would prefer not to send COD. Can do through paypal or something though if you want some extra security.

As far as I can see, there are no hats (strut tops) in the package, is that correct? (which bolts up to the strut towers in the engine bay)

Also do you know what the spring rates are and how much lower they are to stock?

Thanks

:thumbsup:

Hey Ruby,

What you see is what you get. I'm not sure what "hats" look like so if they're not in the pics then they don't come with the package. Have a look here http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/St...mp;hl=group+buy

This was the original group buy and there is a lot of info there. Should be able to find all the answers to your questions there. I'm not sure about how much lower it'll make the car, it'll depend on where you put the circlips on the shocks. I'm not sure on spring rates. Sydney Kid (who organised the group buy) chose the best spring rates based on his experience, I'm not sure on what they are though.

Hopefully you can find all the answers to your questions in the link I provided.

Thanks

Sorry mate, I'm gunna have to withdraw my dibs. The kit doesn't look like its complete, as I need to replace my whole suspension.

The "hats" are the tops of the suspension which slot into the strut tower.

    • Hey guys I’m chasing a Rb20det complete or bare block need a good running engine as mine has low comp 
    • You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.
    • 98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.
    • Anyone know alternatives to powerplus tungsten? Can't find an alternative online. 
    • 95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
