Im looking at getting some coilovers from a mate of a friend lol! All I know about coilovers is that you can adjust the height and they stiffen the suspension but is there other things I need for fitting them? Like camber arms or new dampers etc as im on a budget at the moment.

 

These coilovers are HKS and from a R32 skyline but im sure I read these fit. He wants £250 for the set front and back but small problem I hope :) One of the coilovers has a broken valve which I think is called "schrader valve" from what I found on google.

 

Is this a major problem or not?

I got my coilovers from an r32 gts :)

mine are from an R32 GTR. dont know if you can replace the valve, or if its something you could just live with?

To be honest I dont know :confused1: If the valve does nothing and it still works then no problem.

Turns out the valve isn't broken :cool3: its just the silver cap that screws on the end was missing. The Coilovers are fine and in good condition so had them:)

 

Verry happy!
