Hi,

I'm new here and hope I can get some help. I have a GTR R32 more or less in stock condition with HKS coilovers that I need to replace, as one is leaking and it seems to be impossible to get them repaired.. I have tried to find some reviews of coilovers and so far I get the feeling that HSD and BC Gold generally get a lot of good feedback.

I can also get OZ Racing coilovers here in NZ - http://www.bcracing.co.nz/%C2'> - which are fully supported in terms of parts and are supposedly the same as D2?

I use the car just for driving on the road and plan to go on the track the odd time maybe.

I wonder if there are any of you out there who have used OZ Racing coilovers and can give some feedback or comments? I haven't found anything on the forum about that brand.

Cheers, C

Give the coilovers the flick. Buy a set of customised Bilsteins from SydneyKid on here. Buy a set of springs to go with (Kings, Eibach, maybe Tein). Enjoy proper damping instead of the ratshit piss poor excuse for damping you get from cheap coilovers. Enjoy life.

Total cost less shipping to sheep island, <$2k. Outperform any coilover setup this side of double that money.

What this guy said. Anything cheaper is a waste of money. If you can't afford, save up so you can afford it, you will thank yourself for it.

I have seen bits break off new D2s so if OZ are the same definitely avoid.

I got my Bilsteins from Bilstein Motorsports in Penrose but Auto Alignment nationwide carry them as well. Or you can look on TradeMe for some imported HKS or Tein etc and get a suspension shop to check them out before you install them.

      You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.

      98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.

      95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
