Me and my 98 EK4

[hisoka]

good choice man did your nissans go any hard or just stock.

EK4 are cool ~

[newbie]

welcome. nice ek4, and good mods too.!

[kriZy]

nice and simple

definately go the ASR + EK9 Rear Sway bar!

[STTICH]

seems like very tidy ek4.

how does the coilover feel?

[tuyen]

thanks again all. Will clean it up more and take a few nicer photos to share with you all as the modifications continue.

yeah my skylines did go hard but they also drunk petrol hard too. wanted something bit quieter and daily friendly..

DMS (Drummond Motor Sport) coilovers handle awesome. They have a 30 step damper/bump adjustment and are also height adjustable. I set it on 17 clicks (30 being hardest) for daily driving and 27-30 for track.

1-5 clicks = feels like stock EK4 shocks with super low king springs
10-15 clicks = Koni yellows with super low king springs
17 = nice for daily roads
25+ = feels like typical jap track coilovers. good setting for track work.

I've owned a few jap dampers (ie. Tiens, Apexi etc) in the past and I found the damper adjustments didn't make much of a difference and the springs that come with them are damn hard. So bumpy!

With the DMS dampers, I can actually feel the difference when changing the settings straight away. But the price you pay for a new DMS system (~$3500-4000), might not be worth it to some. I was just lucky to pickup a cheap clearance special set for the EK.

nice ek4 enjoy.. its a nice clean car love the exhaust and headers!

[mrwillz]

where did u find the cheap ek coilies

[Sir_vtec]

nice car and you got new rubber on your wheels

asr kit and a ek9 swaybar is prob one of the best bang for bucks mod u could do. you ll love it

[tuyen]

The DMS kit was a 'final' set advertised on the official DMS website. I purchased them directly through them (located in Adelaide).

Thanks for the advice on the ASR + EK9 rsb upgrade guys. Tossing up between which to get first. rsb or mugen intake ?

[kriZy]

hmm good contemplation.

think of it this way

want noticable power? - Mugen intake

want noticable handling? - rear sway bar.

you'll have to vtec it alot to feel the difference with the intake..

whereas the rear sway bar you can always rip corners anytime for fun

[rawr]

I reckon intakes with hondas only does good for your butt dyno lmao.
A tiny bit more responsive but definitely sounds beefier.

[TYPE-ONE]

j's intake is also good with the rite ducting and heat shielding
