Hey guys about 6 months ago changed from stock springs to Kings, but havent been impressed with the way the car feels it often skips over bumps and feels like it is botttoming out when giving the car a bit.

As i like to get out on the track a bit I want to upgrade my suspesion after reading on here Whiteline seems the go but should I just get the handling kit and keep the king springs or get the works kit and sell the kings?

The car is my daily driver and sees track work every couple of months which hopelully will be more often in the neard future?

Any ideas on what to do, any suggestions would be good?

seriously dude, get the complete works kit from whiteline... i made the BIG mistake of using Kings springs with my full whiteline works kit, and it was one of the worst decisions i've ever made. To say i'm dissapointed in the amount of customer service etc that i am receiving from kings at the moment (the springs that they have supplied me with are nowhere near the same as what i was told they would be, and their general "oh well, its not our fault... cya later" attitude) has steered me clear of dealing with Kings in the future.

Bottoming out is most likely a ride height thing...as for the ride, could simply be the fact that the std shocks cant handle the new Kings, because of the ride height, the age of them or the actual spring rate?!?!?!

I have found the Whiteline kits good because they are a known qty and a good baseline from which to start. You can of course spend thousands on susp, but the Whiteline kits get the job done for a resonable outlay.

    • See my post here If you put the Haltech in, you won't have to worry about any of that. And, in case you're worrying about my lack of credentials in doing your exact swap, I put a Neo in an R32. There has never been a stock boost solenoid near my car and the Neo's ECU has never cared. Nor should it, because it is electronically impossible for it to care.
    • That's 100% wrong. Did you wire in the boost sensor? If you did not, then that is 101% your answer. Neo ECUs do suck a bit.
    • Hello, I'm trying to make this thread basically the thread with all the answers to common questions regarding specifically the RB20 DE NEO + T engine, that comes in the R34. Answers will and only should be provided by those who have done this conversion or actually have some relevant real life experience please. Please feel free to ask questions in the comments if you have any so other members can answer. I feel like this thread is really needed, especially with more Americans buying (unknowingly going to regret it too) rb20 neo r34s. My first question being - What do you guys use for tuning? I have purchased a haltech elite 2500 Plug and play kit for the rb25det NEO because the ecu plug is the same, but I am unsure if any of the pins would need to be repined to match. Second question that I see asked very often - After this conversion, did you install the boost solenoid/ actuator? I see many people doing a + T setup on their rb20 NEOs while running stock RB25DET NEO ECUs with no tune. I am wondering how they are going about doing that and consistently abusing the car because many of these people have had these untuned setups running for a very long time. That was my original plan, but my engine cuts out at 5 psi of boost using the stock ecu with no tune and no boost solenoid/actuator.
    • interesting. ive read and heard otherwise over the past year. ive been doing this +t conversion on a rb20 neo using all oem rb25det neo parts including the ECU, and im having engine cut out issues when I hit around 5 psi of boost. Everywhere/everyone ive asked has told me its because I never wired in a boost solenoid/actuator to the ecu, so the ecu isn't getting the right signal once it hits 5 psi of boost, causing the engine to get shut off.
