HI Guys - after a quick answer if anyone knows... been offered a set of King Springs a guy had on his R34 GTT... will these go straight on to my Series 2 Stagea? 1) Are they likely to be same fitment 2) Would there be a different rear spring set needed for heavier wagon rear end or will I be ok?

Thanks. Even if u dont know but know the phone number for King SPrings direct thatd be great!

Cheers

Adam

Ahh thanks - didnt even see that stickied there!

But I have posted what I found out there and will put it here also... rang around and rears from r33GTST should not be used - they FIT but arent rated for the weight of the wagon arse-end. Phoned Kings in QLD and they said flat out they dont even make a spring that is suitable for the rear end, and although they have MADE some specifically - they dont recommend them - said it isnt just length or spring rate but also that the actual fitment area/shape isnt right for their springs... they told me to get some specific Stagea springs from a Jap brand.... so looks like Ill get some Teins sent over.

But yeah - dont reply here - we'll keep it all in the stickied suspension thread...

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
