my front shocks are farked ae they bottom out all the time, yea it would be good if someone could point me in the right direction

[dirtyleppa]

i think chamberlains does shock shortining. maybe give em a ring and just ask how much.

[Dattodevil]

Use Thorpe engineering, they have great experience at shortening shocks, you wont be disappointed.

thanks guys, now heres another question for all you guru's , the sunny just seems to eat diffs, im on my 3rd and its now clunky again, iv been told a s110 silvia diff will bolt up and they have discs witch is a plus, can anyone speculate/comment and if true anyone got one ??

[Brnwgn]

from what i hear thats true. think jeff had that setup in the ca sunny.

if you lower the car you must allow for travel otherwise when you need to brake
hard in a moment of oh my god your body weight will transfer hard down on your tyres and
it will just skid and oh my god will turn into oh f K and ka boom.
If you lower your car do it right for a couple of hundred $$ it's better than smashing up
ya car or killing yourself or someone else.

yea he did ae, i was just talking to him last night bout an upgrade, ideally id like a whole silvia/gazelle with the diff, and a z18et and box etc and just do the whole lot

yea thats a valid point, i dont want it to be stupidly low or dangerous, just want it to actually look like it has been lowered cuz at the moment it got more ground clearance than a 4wd and its got lowered springs

[datman310]

would be all good if one/both go for cheap enough, they not turbo z18s but i just wanted one to get diff and all the other bits that go with putting it in sunny,

yea fj would be all good, dad even suggested go to an L series like an L18 witch id be quite keen for but not sure how straitforward it would be

[dirtyleppa]

ask bart about putting an L series into a sunny, hes dunnit before
