Thanks dd, if only I was in the states. They wont ship shocks outside the US as they can be sent normal freight, due to the pressurised gas.

However can get stock shocks through nissan
56210-H1825 Much easier when you enquire with part number. But $290 each and 4 - 6 weeks wait as ex Japan.

Repco have their own option at $249 for pair.

Yet to try Koni

But might ring Pedders for some more info on there option.

Cheers

Heading to Dowerin this weekend for some driving events on Saturday and show shine on Sunday.

But got few problems to sort out. Ordered new hub seals for stanza hubs, but got wrong ones. So hopefully correct ones arrive tomorrow. Bearings and hubs been cleaned and re-greased ready to go back on when get new seals.

Trying to nail down decent priced set of rear shocks, but looks like set will cost me $200. No catalogues have shock length and stroke details, so makes it hard to look at substituting shocks from another model.

Need to replace the shocks in the rear of my coupe

Have found 2 options available locally

Pedders - $90.00 each
Gabriael 82020 - $85.00 each

What you guys think, as I have never used either of these brands.

Cheers

You got smoked Jesse

Based on what I seen today with the dyno, Id say you got mmm 75 hp so there fore a 150hp shot of nos may net you 175hp. So thats a big bang for your buck and will enable you to beat Nigel once .... Before the big bang

They look really good and not much more than the VDO option. Good if they did a combination one as well with temp, fuel etc. Would look awesome in a custom dash.

Top idea with the stickers, better that the ones I done years ago.
