Hey all,

Going to be installing a set of BC BR's on my r34 gtt and just wanted to find out the torque specs for the bolts that hold the coilover in?

Did a bit of search on the forums and found a post briefly stating it's 70nm for the bottom bolts and 40nm for the top strut bolts. Is this correct?

Cheers

Bottom bolts are best described as f**king tight. Pretty much as hard as you can do it up with a double ended ringy. 70Nm is about right for that. The top bolts are only 8mm or something, so 40Nm would be not far wrong there too.

FWIW, I never use a torque wrench for main suspension bolts. f**king tight is the correct torque.

lol thanks for the replies.

So i guess it's one of those jobs where nuts need to be tight as fuark? Excited to finally get some coils on. my springs have sagged too much and im running too low to put my front lip on lol

      Good to see your rotors appear as rusty as mine šŸ¤Ŗ

      Took it for a drive to do some logs, Iā€™m pretty sure my voltage issues and electrical noise issues are gone, Iā€™ve sent a log to Adam and am waiting to hear back with confirmationĀ  att.K23U9eHyiEJxixH6y1__GQfuqK0EgIoDgQFTs9G8x_w.mp4 Ā  idle video from that day just becauseĀ

      Went looking at mine, reading off the tyre, presumably these are 1st week of 2003. Still hold air (I haven't had to pump them up in over 12 months!) Ā  Ā  I couldn't quickly find the date on the front tyres, they were fitted around 2008 to the rims, so probably not quite as old, but they have a lot more dry rot cracks in them. Still hold air.

      I am now intrigued to go check the dates on the tyres on my Skyline... We need a game of who has the oldest tyre still holding a car up, and successfully holding air (for longer than a 2 weeks I feel is successful air holding). Ā  I feel your tyres may be beating mine

      Ok, still waiting for a date to get the cams installed on the MX5, why so long, because MX5 Mania has received a few new sets of different cams with different specs for the MZR and are currently trialling them, and working out what is best for 2.5 "powers" with stock internals, in the end if I go bigger than the Kelford stage 1 cams I'll need to look at the valve springsĀ  Hopefully I'll get the news on them next week As for the boot of the car getting fixed, I hopefully pick it up early next week, I was sweating on picking it up yesterday but, meh, it was not to be, so ne weekend cruising for me
