Hey guys,
Well, im Dave and im in New Zealand, the home of Evos with stick-on headlight covers and oversized chrome rims with excessive points and crap! Been checking Slamburglars for a while, i found the site just wandering for something cool and its kickass so i checked back again and again, and now here i am. I drive the ultimate in nothing, an HCR32, complete with a stock RB20DE pumping out a whopping 160hp through the open diff. The only thing it really has right now are some 16" Racing Sparco rims and some GTST aero parts. No camera so no photo sorry. I dont have a camera because i dont have a job, and not having a job means not having money, and therefore no slam. I am selling some random crap around my house (i have a telescope apparently) and i found some cheap Teins on the interwebs so combined with spacers, although it might not need them, i will achieve slam...and then i wont be able to get out of my driveway or pay for gas. Oh well, it'd be worth it. hopefully ill get some cash turned parts turned win so i can make some sort of contrubition here lol, and if anyone has anything going cheap i could possibly use id super appreciate it. Cheers, Dave |

Thanks guys, i appreciate the welcome.
I think Slamburglars is good luck for me or something, after having a glance at the S-chassis thread i hit up trademe (ebay but NZ) for suspension cause it got me hyped for dropping the 32 again, and in amongst all the Nissan van parts?  KYB shocks with HKS springs up front and stock shocks with Cobra springs up back, and an extra set of springs for the front too. They do fit 32 sedans and they're only $350, i think thats around $200 and abit USD, dont really trust something that cheap but i could acually raise the money for them so im gonna look into them. They do seem decent, but im not an automotive genius so can anyone give an expert opinion? Cheers again guys |

I personally think you should just pick up some used coilovers.

Ive only found Tein coilovers second hand and ive never found any that will fit sedans, the front will fit but the rears wont.
Anything else id have to buy new or get from another country, which is why i look at lesser forms or suspension such as above. |

Mines pretty messed up, not badly, but its a little haggard everywhere. And my wheels are raped, previous owner liked curbs and spilling corrosives lol |
