Coilovers

Posted by on 21st April , 2012

NZM018 went to Pedders a couple of weeks ago to have the coilover height changed. We’d tried at home, but with out a vice weren’t able to move the locking nut with the c spanner.

Pedders came back after trying and said the housing will be damaged before the nut will move. The thread isn’t anodised like the rest of the housing so it’s become ceased over time / sitting for long periods. Gave some Rost off ice from Wurth a try but had no effect. Hopeful of a $25 solution over one a 100 times more.

So replacement units are needed, little idea what will go in yet.

The N15 rear calipers have been reconditioned by BHSS. If I wasn’t told otherwise, I would say they are replacement factory calipers. They did a terrific job, I’ll post comparison pictures in the near future. The front pipe has developed a leak, while it’s only small, I can certainly hear it. I’ve always liked the ces racing dump/front pipes, so it might be a good reason to change over to one.
