Volk34 Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 i would go though car torque but dave (cazman) who use to work there has since moved on and now apparently the knowledge there has since gone downhill....

Krishy Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 the info in this thread isnt that old so should be relative.....generally 8Kg fronts and 6kg rears are a good softish spring rate to go for....it really depends on how your damper settings are setup.....to stiff you will get a rock hard ride and then too soft can be bouncy.....roughly somewhere in the middle should be ok Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/320199-coilover-rebuild/page/2/#findComment-5525826 Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithersnt Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 i think the place in qld is called quantum or something. autosport deal with them if you need to get in contact.

Damo_R34 Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 just did a basic google search and this was result number 2... http://www.nissansilvia.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=478563 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/320199-coilover-rebuild/page/2/#findComment-6073626 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAKS Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Yea,siba33 suggested me to go to pedder's on Marion rd.. And i also read about that fulcrum place..So i guess it would be the best to ring up few suspension places and ask around..

SAKS Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Well i just got off the phone with car torque and pedder's on marion rd and they are no go option.. car torque sends coilovers to fulcrum for a quote and an opinion whether coils can be rebuilt or not and just for that u gotta pay freight about $40 to be sent to fulcrum and $40 to be sent back.. And pedder's well,they said they dont do it and dont know who does it here in adelaide...

Damo_R34 Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 yeah i believe there used to be a bloke at Pedders who did it for them, but he may have since moved on. Why dont you ring Fulcrum up and see if you can get cheaper freight direct through them?

Luke_ENR34 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Try Murray coote in queensland. Very knowledgeable guy. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/320199-coilover-rebuild/page/2/#findComment-6076614 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAKS Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Im not that keen to send them interstate. I got in contact with Jarrod and he said that he moved on (i think he worked for pedder's) but he does sell kit to repair yourself,and he said its preety straight forward to do it and takes couple hrs to do set of 4 so might try that...

SAKS Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Cz i spoke to someone from car torque and i asked if they can tell me how much would cost for freight to fulcrum and repair etc. he said hes not sure and price may warry depending on whats wrong with coilovers. I just dont want everything to adds up and to comes up to price where ill be better off getting new coils... but i guess if i ring fulcrum like Damo_R34 said or even this guy Murray and talk to them then ill have better idea what to do Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/320199-coilover-rebuild/page/2/#findComment-6077031 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madaz Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 yeah maybe just ring both and they might confirm what each other says without knowing it Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/320199-coilover-rebuild/page/2/#findComment-6077092 Share on other sites More sharing options...
