You know what, as much as that sounds like a big achievement, it kinda shows why the american car industry is failing right now; no major technological upgrades for 50years.

Bugatti veyron set out with a new quad turbo w16 8litre engine.........that porsche is still a boxer 6cylinder engine.......ferrari uses high revving v8/12 engines which produce high hp per litre.

Audi r8's new v10 uses special fuel evaporation cooling technology to reduce detonation of fuel while running high compression

look at america, they use the biggest engine possible, largest capacity e.g. viper 8.3litre v10 and only 500hp, mustang v8 under 400 etc

400 to 500 cubic inch engines running carby's etc

Fuel consumption anyone???? ford gt *cough cough* in topgears supercar test

      Shockabsorber 101

      KYBs are typically twin tube, putting them in the lower tier of desireability. Do you just want to replace worn out ones for the lowest cost? I mean, you wouldn't just replace one end of a car, if the rears are a similar age to the fronts, then they are probably nowhere near what they should be, and likely won't be great against brand new fronts. So, to spend ~$800 on 2nd tier dampers, when you could get a decent set of MCA coilovers for <$4k.....? As to the strut tops. 1st up, the Sparesbox site specifically tells you that they are not correct for an R33. Beyond that, why do you think you need them?

      Bringing an old thread back to life Looking to put some new front shocks in the r33Gtst and the KYB still look ok for a road car. Unless there are any other options aroind that price $200 a shock?  I’d like to replace the strut tops also, is this the correct KYB no. For the strut top, KSM7124?  https://www.sparesbox.com.au/products/kyb-strut-top-mount-ksm7124?srsltid=AfmBOoq-HDru8wSlLnQrhU9gCw_uYdKg8gUQzONY-EQOdnI5iXOWEUjY 341287 appears to be the front KYB shocks part no.  thanks all

      LandCruiser used to get a fluid flush every 12 to 18 months.   Only because it was about that often the electric motor on the master for brake assist kept dieing and needing to come off.
