Hi,

Just wanted to ask what springs are out there for a 2001 Skyline v35 250gt 4 door sedan.

I'm from Melbourne and I called a couple of places and the only place that could get them said they only have tiens and they would set me back ~$800 and may have 1+ weeks waiting time to have them shipped them from Japan??

Anyone have any suggestions? I've looked on ebay and found only springs for g35/v35 but says for year 03+?

Any help would be great... I dont have the car yet but i'm just looking at my options and planning ahead...

Thanks,

Dan.

$800 for a set of Tein Springs??????????????? Thats a bloody rip off!

Now i'm not 100% but am pretty certain the 250gt and 350Gt have the same suspension setup...if you can verify these then your options have widened as they will be compatible with 350z springs.

I am currently running a complete 350z factory suspension in my 350gt sedan. It is a straight fit and lowers the car by approx 1" all round. Most people in the US just replace the springs with the 350z ones and use existing struts, works as well.

Would a set of standard R34 GTR (ie non V-Spec) ones fit?

I have a set so long as they fit - not harsh like V-Spec. $80 + post.

Check tho' eh?

Cheers,

Hi mate,

I'm looking to lower the car a couple of inches... and just thought $800 was rediculous... looking for any guides on how much others may have paid to lower a v35... I dont have any intention to track the car so not fussed on cornering...

      R34 RB20DE NEO + T ONLY

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      See my post here If you put the Haltech in, you won't have to worry about any of that. And, in case you're worrying about my lack of credentials in doing your exact swap, I put a Neo in an R32. There has never been a stock boost solenoid near my car and the Neo's ECU has never cared. Nor should it, because it is electronically impossible for it to care.

      That's 100% wrong. Did you wire in the boost sensor? If you did not, then that is 101% your answer. Neo ECUs do suck a bit.

      R34 RB20DE NEO + T ONLY

      By Sxnjeet · Posted

      Hello, I'm trying to make this thread basically the thread with all the answers to common questions regarding specifically the RB20 DE NEO + T engine, that comes in the R34. Answers will and only should be provided by those who have done this conversion or actually have some relevant real life experience please. Please feel free to ask questions in the comments if you have any so other members can answer. I feel like this thread is really needed, especially with more Americans buying (unknowingly going to regret it too) rb20 neo r34s. My first question being - What do you guys use for tuning? I have purchased a haltech elite 2500 Plug and play kit for the rb25det NEO because the ecu plug is the same, but I am unsure if any of the pins would need to be repined to match. Second question that I see asked very often - After this conversion, did you install the boost solenoid/ actuator? I see many people doing a + T setup on their rb20 NEOs while running stock RB25DET NEO ECUs with no tune. I am wondering how they are going about doing that and consistently abusing the car because many of these people have had these untuned setups running for a very long time. That was my original plan, but my engine cuts out at 5 psi of boost using the stock ecu with no tune and no boost solenoid/actuator.

      interesting. ive read and heard otherwise over the past year. ive been doing this +t conversion on a rb20 neo using all oem rb25det neo parts including the ECU, and im having engine cut out issues when I hit around 5 psi of boost. Everywhere/everyone ive asked has told me its because I never wired in a boost solenoid/actuator to the ecu, so the ecu isn't getting the right signal once it hits 5 psi of boost, causing the engine to get shut off.
