M35 Aftermarket Suspension

[zei20l]

the rear spring seat is threaded for spring pre-load, and the damper also has a threaded base for height adjustment.

same as the front, but in seperate areas. works the same way though

Any idea what the cm drop from standard the impuls provide? I have a set of s-tune springs you could borrow if necessary, they drop the car 2cm from standard I think.

Why don't you lend him your stilts Dunc, no way he'll get rejected that way

Because without them my car would be stranded on the road

Cars too fsrking low...gotta raise the rear up.

I went thru one of those retractable spike thing today. I swear it sounded like it took my exhaust out...

Low. Top of tyre to edge of guard is about 15-20mm max.

[bigkevracer]

SA reg doesn't go on tyre to guard distance though does it? It goes on lowest point to ground?

Well they have a concrete block you have to drive over when over the pit at regency but I'm sure they would pull out the ruler if need be.

As for the ID check, they don't measure at all but if it looks too low they won't pass it and you will have to come back. No fine but just the hassle.

[bigkevracer]

Its going to be a hassle either way. Isn't it less hassle to just present and fix it if it gets rejected?

Who did compliance? I thought anything that didn't meet ADRs had to be removed at compliance, hence all the good stuff usually got stripped?

[impul535w]

Parts were removed for compliance and re fitted after.

Purchased the car through Chef, compliance work done by japlink.

I will prob go down and see how I go but like to be prepared as far as being able to swap what ever I need to get it through. May just go down the road of coilovers now, was going to be an eventual mod but would have preferred getting my 19's first

[impul535w]

It's really up to the workshop when it comes to aftermarket parts, if they choose to put them back then it's a win for you. I had the benefit of knowing what was on the car before shipping so parts had to be put back.

I have seen images of M35's with BC's fitted sitting low but do they have enough adjustment to be set at stock height?

AFAIK with the BC's u can actually raise the car above stock height...

[zei20l]

yup i would guess about 30-40mm above standard and about 60-80mm below lol

i might be exaggerating that, but there is PLENTY of adjustment, front and rear

SWEEEEEET,...

[bigkevracer]

Yeah I already asked that, so that's the way I'll be going. Someone (Leon I think) found a supplier at a bit over $1100 delivered...

When I enquired with Just Jap they didnt believe they could get it to above stock height - they thought they could get JUST to stock height.. but no higher. They, apparently, asked the workshop next to them who fitted the BC's to their workshop/demo car and that was what they thought also. I are teh confused.

[zei20l]

i can only go by my own.

is it possible the two different type also have different adjustment capabilities?
