sounds good, mabee you should send me some..:)

they done mine for 100 a pair

ok thanks for all the help, i mite go for a stiffer ride in the gas shocks. something that will last a little while anyway. any ideas on rough prices for those 1K pedders?

The early 4 cylinder Torana/Viva front shocks are (i think) perfect for a nice ride in a 1K.Pedders carry them,if thats not firm enough for you you can up grade to the Pedders red.
My experiance has been there OK in pressing of your lower mounting bracket on the old shocks and re fitting them to the new ones...if you dont have a press.

yeh i havent done to much been busy!
got the front end suspension parts going to paint them black soon

pedders in melbourne still sell them

Front Shocks3029 3029 Touring Black Shock

Rear Shock8024 8024 Comfort Gas Shock

Really , I talked to a guy at pedders and he told me he done a set before and it was a pain in the arse. He told me he needed a bit of time and without him telling me, he made it clear he didnt really want to do them. He hinted that it would cost me so forgot about it. I was going to leave them until the car was ready to drive. That makes me happy that I dnt have to put the old oil shocks back on the front .
Hey dato1000wagon, how is your coupe coming along dude?

None of those meet the request:Quote:For comfortable, use the original Nissan specifications. With light car and light suspension, you don't want gas shocks or racing shocks. You want a (new) skinny little light rate shock.

There is no permanent shock. They all wear out after time. There are rebuildable shocks, but chances are 30 years later you won't be able to get the parts...

I used Mini ones on the coupe, Monroe gas,
and 1200 ones on the back..

just replace the bottom arm...
you can buy bnew 1000 shokies from pedders i have 4 sitting here now!
