I installed KYBs in my S14 rear side. Very happy after more than a year. Feels much tighter over bumps than the original Nissan shocks up front. I paid CRS Pitstop R1400 from memory for both shocks. Installed myself in 40 minutes. Biggest job is to remove the rear parcel shelf.

KYB
FL: 234051 or 733006
FR: 234052 or 733007
no rears

Koni
KON-86411364SPOR

Monroe
FL: 71849
FR: 71848
RL: 71233
RR: 71233

Gabriel

FR: G55904
RL: G51191
RR: G51191

Go to a parts place like Spares Link or what ever and ask them for those shocks, if they don't source the above makes find out what make they can source look up the part numbers on google... Fit them your self its lank easy, just take the car to get aligned...
Anybody know the part numbers for a S13's shocks?

Not those ones as i keep on getting told those numbers dont exist...except for the Koni's, but i dont have R5500

CRS says sory phone Koni SA

Give Steve Hurley from Koni a shout, they are in centurion. Trust me, you wont be dissapointed, he'll give you Koni adjustables for the same price as stock shocks from the dealers.

Thanks Sokar :wink:

Iv'e already spoken to him.But like i said...dont have R5500 :cry:

(edit)

Do they have a shop in Centurion that i could go to? directions? :)

maby if i go there and talk to him i can make a plan to find it in my budget... Id have to get the rears and then later the fronts to have any hope.

Or win the no longer existing lotto :roll:
