Does anyone know what the difference is between Whiteline and standard spring rates for an import R32 GTR ?

It would be nice to get an idea of what change if any I could expect going to Whiteline springs.  

Thanks for any input

Regards

Ask Whiteline.

Ask Whiteline.

LOL forgot to mention I already did that. They state that the springs are 'about 20% stiffer' which doesn't really tell me anything. If the ride in my car was 20% harsher it'd be pretty uncomfortable. Maybe the harshness is overdamping but in a car with 70k km (?) the dampers are possibly stuffed so I assume it's the springs that are causing the firm ride.

I have the 1inch lowered kings that they claim are 20% stiffer. I recently put the adjustable Koni's in, but the ride isn't too bad.

Were you able to compare it to standard ie rougher or firmer? I'm also thinking of going with the Konis.

Regards

    • Dose is unaware just how much fun 145-150kw would be in a 2.5L NC MX5. It would be one of the most fun things to drive to ever grace SAU.
    • Same thought crossed my mind ~ depends on how one connotes 'stalling'...ie; gets a rough/stumbling idle as it get warm until it stalls... or... idles ok and simply falls-over when it gets to temp... ...you can test the whole circuit with a couple of resistors ...unplug coolant temp sensor, bridge terminals with a 2K7 resistor (ECU will do cold start), or with engine warm bridge with a 330R resistor (ECU will consider engine to be at normal operating temp)...it's a quick way to check wiring integrity/ECU response when you don't have a multimeter handy ...
    • They also make them with the motor mounted on the side 
    • Just be warned that that turbo will not be a direct re-fit to the car. The exhaust housing is, of course, in the same place. It has to be - it's bolted to the exhaust manifold. So the dump will fit up. But the centre housing is not as long, so the comp housing will move backwards. This will affect both the turbo inlet and the outlet. There is fab work that needs to be done. Yes. it has one, it should have one. Paper gasket.
    • I only recently purchased the vehicle, it came with the flex setup but the current tune is e85 only, which is why im wanting to get the tune redone to enable a mixture.  First i need to get the exhaust redone tho. I was thinking of getting a varex muffler but it sems they dont fit well in the 33 (hang low because of the valve mechanism which sticks out on top) and generally dont sound good. So that leaves me with redoing the entire exhaust (more resonators and mufflers) so its not a menace when i come and go from home, and then have the aes dump valve somewhere along the line to really open it up. I was thinking of having it before the cat but after seeing how insanely loud it will be (on a vl turbo) im thinking of putting it more towards the rear of the car, after one of the resonators.
