Spl Parts For Skyline

[CrimsonLey]

Does anyone know which SPL Pro Suspension parts are compatible with the Skyline ER34?

http://www.splparts.com/

I've called and email SPL over the pass 3 months. The rep told me he would contact the Australian distributor but never got back with me. I've also contacted other SPL vendors with no luck. Google isn't turning up any results either.

rear camber arms & rear traction rods & front tension rods from S14 will fit the 34.

Thanks, mate. The front tension rods control the camber and caster, right?

no they just control the caster.

camber u need front upper adjustable camber arms.

R33/R34 GTST/GTS/GTT/GTR take the same front upper camber arm.

How does that translate to the Silvia or Z32?

SPL parts only manufacture bits for USDM vehicles. If I figure out the complete compatibility list then I could purchase replacements for my stock components.

BTW, they at least told me that these parts fit the R32

"The following items will fit the Skyline R32 GTR:

S13 rear upper arms

S13 rear hicas eliminator (available but not advertised yet)

S13 traction rods

S13 rear subframe bushings or rear subframe conversion bushings

S14 rear diff bushings

S13 front tension rodsZ32 front tie rod ends w/ Z32/Z33 inner tie rods"

I've been playing around with the White Line website and looks no Silvia or Z part is compatible with the R33/R34 front control arms. Hence, SPL doesn't manufacture that particular bit.

thats right.

you can get justjap adjustible arms or go the jap brands such as cusco and ikeya.

for local shit like whiteline & superpro, you can only get bushes but they only give very little adjustment +/- 0.5 degrees.

I'm very doubtful that I'll purchase Jap suspension bits. IMHO, most of the Jap suspension manufactures don't make components that are any better than lower priced bits from Oz or the states. SPL parts are Titanium with solid bushings. Which Aussie companies do you recommend? I'm interested in White Line but I don't know anything about them.

Lucky I found this thread!

We are the sole authorised distributor for SPL Pro Suspension Parts in Australia. Our prices are what I would call 'aggressive' - it will NOT cost you any more to buy from us than it would to buy directly from the USA.

I have not heard from the USA guys regarding your enquiry, so I will PM you now.

Please note we are also a distributor for SuperPro and Whiteline so we can help you with anything else you may require.

Keep in mind front adjustable camber arms are sometimes made for people to set their cars up aggressively (i.e race cars, lots of neg camber), if you are looking to put more positive camber in the front the SuperPro poly adjustable bushes work very well (I should certainly hope so anyway, we helped R&D the damn things! )

Read and replied. You basically confirmed with Dori34 mentioned above, thanks Pete.

I do plan on tracking my R34 and I want to ensure I have the more adjustable suspension bits. SuperPro have poly bushings? I prefer to keep the suspension bushing consistent (i.e. all solid, all polly, etc).

Yes, SuperPro does all Polyurethane bushes. We sell lots of them and we all use them in our cars here at work. Very good product

Thanks mate but ATM I'm interested in SPL bits and finding R34 bits that have solid bushings to compensate the components that SPL doesn't manufacture for the R34.
