I've done a bit of of guide to installing new rear shocks. It's a bit brief, but I hope it might help some of you when doing yours.

Rob, your brilliant, that's just what this site is all about.

 

Good stuff

Rob, what torque wrench settings did you use on all the fix points?

 

Simon

They are on the online manual (under tech stuff menu) here a link to the rear suspension page: http://www.300zx.co.uk/cgi-bin/manual.cgi?list=ra&dir=&config=&refresh=&direction=forward&scale=0&cycle=off&slide=17&design=default&total=35

The top nuts are 16-19 and the bottom bolt is 77-98. I think these are in Nm. Cheers.

Bugger me - why did no one tell me about the adjustable rear shocks before!

 

I've just been reading up on them in the on-line manual.

 

Can't wait to get the car back from the garage to try them out.
