hi guys,

anyone heard about the "standard" suspension?

i don't mean the standard suspension which the car orginally has, but a brand called "standard".

i think it's a new brand, not so many people know about it.

im just thinking to get one of this for my r34gtt.

is it a good brand? and which model should i pick (not for track) ?

cheers

A few years ago I wanted some coilovers for the s13 on a budget and I had the choice between a set of HSD or a set of STD coilovers, I ended up going with the HSD's partially because I didn't want to say I had just got some "STD's" ...

Is it really that shit?

One of my frd had one on his r33. only cost him $1300 including install.

He said it's pretty good for that price.

I sat in his car once, and yeah that it's better than my orginal one, but still not as good as I think coilovers should be.

He said becoz his ones is the r1 model, if I get the better model it'll be much better and won't be too expensive as those famious brand. He said it's more competable.

Is it real? Or any one has a better suggestion? Budgeted around $1500.

Cheers

Any one has a idea that which suspension should I buy for my 34 gtt?

Budgeted around $1500.

I can't stand on my orginal suspension any more, it slant a lot when I make a turn

i used to think so, but when i went to the mechanic he suggest me to get some new suspension first...

Swaybars will make more of a difference to body roll than a set of coilovers.

And here's a tip, don't listen to what mechanics tell you about suspension, get it from the horses mouth (Brad@WAsuspenders).

      You have the option to do this. Nobody but me ever did this (go slower, I mean) Everyone seems to fall victim to "This would be a great setup for you, but for me, I need a little more power..."

      Save yourself the headache of an alarm. Immobilizer on the signal side of the main EFI relays so it won't start is good enough. DIY killswitch is the same thing except instead of a nice passive system you need to remember to switch it on and off.

      Yeah, the advent of canbus was supposed to cut down on wiring weight, then some bright marketing wonk says "oh, look at all these wonderful tech gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some arsehole safety legislator says "oh, look at all the wonderful surveillance and tracking gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some dipshit young engineer who has grown up thinking that an extra 500000 lines of code is not a problem because storage is cheap these days says "oh look at all this wonderful shit I can do to one up those dipshit arsholes over at VW" and the Karens of the world all go "oh look at all these fancy things I can do on my screen (so long as I am not driving on a bumpy road wherein touch screens immediately become the single most stupid shit idea ever shoveled into a car) and my 19 zone airconditioning keeps my sweaty fat folds a bit less damp and the windows close themselves because I'm too fat and lazy to wind them up for myself and these reversing sensors would have been great if I'd paid attention to them instead of smashing them on the bollard while I was reversing and staring fixedly forward that day I went to pick up little Charlize from ballet" and the sweaty mongoloids who say "oh this wonderful collision avoidance technology with these 45 excellent radar antennae scattered across the front of my car mean I can tailgate like a methed up tradie at full speed with no fear because the car and the 35 airbags will protect me if it all goes wrong" ...... </shallistopranting?>

      There's a post from a member (can't recall who), went down the path of a twin scroll G30-660 and it's doing over 300kW+ AND comes on about the same as a high flow RB25DET turbo. Have your cake and eat it too in this case. TBH, if I had a 2nd chance of building my car again (i.e. someone gave me what I wanted for my shit box, but the deal was I had to re-build another R33 and keep the change) I would just pop in a stock NEO motor (with new seals, rod bearings, ARP studs, head gasket, sump, Nitto pump), get a smaller twin scroll turbo, modify the stock low mount (keep the divider in place), and make a solid 300kW on 98RON and call it a day.
