Nice work dwee! Get 'em on! I reckon you should install them with the stock shocks, wear them right out and then replace them. It's 1 - cheaper, and 2 - you won't need to make space in your garage for the stock shocks. :P

agreed, oh and also reset the rears ;) lol

HELL YEAH!!! Im with TOM!!! RESET THE REAR!!!

[dwee.]

hey dwee, my stock shocks r doing fine, i dont reckon u need to go through all the trouble of replacing ur standard ones... well its up to u buddy i was just letting u know thats all...

ive also got king springs aswell.

Thanks guys, I'm just wondering how long would the stock shocks would last me, that's all. If they don't last that long, might as well get better shocks now and save the hassle later..right?

Made up your mind then Peter,i understand what you going through

Looking forward to your pics :)

Thanks mate, will do. :)

agreed, oh and also reset the rears ;) lol

I'll decide when I see it all on :P

There was a photo of John's ZR before he had the rears reset (on King springs) - that might help.

hahaha i have king springs on my car and so far the shocks are kinda ok? once the springs are in wait for about a week or 2 let the springs settle into the car then its hot :D but i want lower now :) coilovers here i come

I"ve been on stock shocks for quite a while now, nothing seems to be wrong with them. I'm also running superlows for the rears...not low enough for me unfortunately.

Thanks guys for the input, I guess I won't be getting KYB shocks. I'll just install the kings for now. Might get it installed on Monday week.

I should've just joined John in BC coilovers GB.. HAHA oh well, I think I'll be happy with this, for a while. :D

It's only new look because you haven't seen me in a while Thom! Hahaha it was a good catch up though; all was missing from it was a (longer) cruise! :P

Wheels are $2k without rubber and TBC..

Full custom exhaust would be nice. Know anywhere that would do headers for ZRE? :D

From the picture, what I see that is missing is come coilovers and a blue Cusco bar! :(

And I'm 'supposed' to be saving up for my house deposit..you guys aren't the best influence everytime I see your ZREs LOL!

[1stKill]

Thanks Lee! Deciding on tyres! Either RE001's or T1R's :D

[1stKill]

T1R's can't go wrong with these little rippers,i miss mine sooo much. ;)

[Kenneth.]

Also consider looking into the Falken FK452. They're apparently slightly better than the T1R's and cheaper as well.
