Shouldn't need replacing. They're brand new ISC N1s. Well according to Ryan hand tightening the bolts isn't enough and a rattle gun needs to be used.

ahh well i doubt theres a problem with the shockers then, its probably like matty said, maybe your new kick bottom suspension has hastened the demise of the old joints... but then again

<--- not a mechanic

maybe make a set of handlebars and a foot rest so u can use ur new n1's as adjustable pogo sticks...

You tell me Chad.

Pillow ball like the ones in my Stagea. I wish mine were rubber tops like my skyline, its so much smoother on the road.

My stagea has no front bump stops and it was so low that when i hit a bump it would bottom out the shocks, maybe that could be your problem?

I got a leaking bush in the right.. But not in the left. Also I don't see what a rattle gun is going to do compared to hand tightening the f**k outta it. Hmmm. I'm going to have to go down to Pedders tomorrow and see what they think.

But I don't think that I'm hitting anything because its too low (because it only started doing it this morning). There is endless possibilities. But I'm leaning away from the coilover being faulty.

I hope

Sorry Matty didn't see your post. You reckon its ball joints? Should I get them done like.. ASAP or would I be able to drive till I got the spare cash to fix em?

s'alright mate. first thing ive learnt to check from every 31 with coils ive been in thats clunked. always seems to be the ball joints that are f**ked (or in your case a bush thats f**ked)

get them replaced with some genuine ones and you'll be sweet as. amazing how much stress and strain coils put on the rest of the suspension components

hmmm, forgot to factor that into my build...........new bushes all through the car. crap. there goes more cash :P

South Australia delivers again!!

Hell yeah, good idea, lets rebuild Adelaide oval even tho we have AAMI stadium.

lets do it to make sadelaide look appealing to our interstate neighbors!!

why waste the f*kin money? srsly.

all this and its to much to ask, for a simple 1/4 mile peice of flat fkn bitumen.

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
