Mystery Rear Shocks On Stagea

[andymoocow]

My brother has a 1999 Stagea S2 Manual 4WD.

His shocks are stuffed all round. He just needs new shocks and not springs or coilovers.

The rear shocks have a FORK at the bottom of them. Spoke to quite a few people and no one sells or supplies these shocks. I am hoping that they are the same as another Skyline shock.

See pic below, anyone recognise them???

Thanks

Forgot to add, he isn't after Bilsteins or anything, just some nice cheap replacement shocks to keep him going.

R32 GTS4's and GTR have the same set up at the rear.

all manuals are fork, all autos are eye

Thanks for the extra info Ryan. So the fork ones are the same as R32 GTR ones, as Chris mentioned earlier?

Strewth is so dam complicated. Times like this i love my R33, so simple, and so many options!!! HAHHA

may be a red herring but I recall reading that stagea rears are longer than gtr32 - the shock length is R34 length??

you might want to check that first.

Thanks for the info Ronin, its my brothers car so i am dropping all the info in his lap and leaving it with him now! Will tell him, and wish him luck!

CHeers for all the help and tips fellas. Never though buying shocks would be so complex.

32GTR fronts give the best travel, 33GTR lack travel...

being an auto i have 33GTST rears, doesnt bottom out.

PM Unique1, i know he has aftermarket suspension

the RS4S has come from the R33 GTR parts bin hence the fork bottom end.
