i got mine from leda suspension in braintree essex, i have had them for bout 7 years, and my front shockers were change for the MOT bout 8 years ago.

tbh its a wierd feeling, when i corner fast or take a roundabout fast it sort of ducks and dives round it, feeling very loose. like being on a boat tbh, but not actually rolling.

does anyone know of any other front inserts that would fit in the s12 strut??

[PukkaSilvia]

just buy some kyb front shocks.. your dampers are nackered. Mine are also nackered on the front. It feels all floaty

I will be getting kybs and welding on threaded tubes for coilovers like Silvia Engineering Did and many others since

[umpkin]

i didnt think KYB's were available for the s12 anymore???

[PukkaSilvia]

Where did you hear that?


Any motor factors can supply patent ones btw. Kybs are the preferance though

[umpkin]

i shall investigate, im sure i heard it on here, may have miss heard. cheers for the heads up on that.

[PukkaSilvia]

you may be rite. Hopefully your not

[s13eater]

i'am sure they are the same as the 280zx inserts.

Sounds like some slightly knackered bushes or ball joints as well as tired shocks.

I have some spare front legs that you could try though Umpkin.
