i use my car as an daily driving and i dont want any coil over because its too stiff and hard ride.i am after comfertable shocks and spring settings.

as i read 242 pages in suspension section,most of the people saying KYB and Bliesten good choice..now i am confused which one to choose and where to buy,and how much it cost roughly..

after buying where to go for fitting...so if you adelaide guys got any information where to buy and what and where to go for fitting that will be great....thanx

here's the thing most of us Adelaide guys run coilovers well there all coilovers just after market

you dont have to get drift king spring rates get something a little softer and you'll have the ability to adjust the damper as well which KYB possibly dont let you do

there is Car Torque @ Kent Town give them a call if you want some more advice from a business

hey Madaz Thankx bro for your help,i will sure going to give them a call..so they supply and fit too...for road use what coilovers you suggesting for comfort ride..as problem in my car is....

when i bought this car,car was too low so i asked the person to lift up to legal hight and he changed the springs i think..

after few weeks now when ever am going on hump and bumpy roads sound coming from front end,its sound like spring pressing or rubbing on somthing....i dont know what to do..car's suspension making a noises now again dont know its a shocks out or spring not sitting properly..

i think i should go to pedders and check it out...any idea guys..

whats your budget for coilovers

you have ISC $1499 but i think there on special atm

HSD

TIEN - made for australian conditions (so i hear)

BC coils

hey guys could you please tell me,how much water pump supply and fitting..

i checked lots of thread but cant find the fitting cost,how much time involve to fit water pump.please please reply ASAP....

thankz in advance

How about you call up one of the many workshops listed in the Workshop Thread stickied in the SA section and find out yourself? It's not that hard and seems these days people are afraid to pick up a telephone and call someone.

Might i add, searching the relevant sections in the forum as a whole to answer any further questions. Helping people is one thing, but asking for advice that is freely available and been covered numerous times gets old fast.

Your not going to find cost of parts and labor charge, as it can change regularly. Use the workshop thread and make a phone call as suggested.

thanks for the reply,but what is the harm to ask fellow skylines owner about the price/cost,as you guys know 70% mechnic are dodgy...i called couple of them....$600 for water pump replacement is right??

its a pretty big job as balancer, timing belt etc have to come out. then re-do timing.

might as well do timing belt while your at it.

and new tensioners.

heck just get a 100k serivce

hey guys,i need a your help to find out what going on with my fuel economy...as you guys mentioned about your cars and mods and fuel economy my car not even near to that,recently i bought R33 GTS-T S1 Auto.. i changed and last week done service including..oil change,transmission service,plugs change,O2 senson change,brake pads change..total cost me $1000.. but no diffrence in fuel economy and power as well...my car is 1994...do you think i need to have turbo back exhasut....and fmic and pod filter to gain some more power... i am new and dont know nothing about the skyline so please please go easy on me...guys...any help
Im getting an extra 100km out of my tank from replacing the coolant temp sensor. That helped me lots and may be worth trying for anyone that is getting poor enconomy, genuine nissan one cost me around the $100 mark from grand nissan Edited by scibidibibop

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
