Needed ASAP! Springs!!

[houghy_1]

Hi guys,after getting my R to the garage to sort the clutch fork problem i noticed the Pulsar had droppped about 2-3 inches on the drivers front,low and behold after 18 months of sitting still and a speed bump on the short journey to the garage and the spring had snapped!!
So im in desperate need for a set of springs,preferably lowered.
I know theres a set on fleabay used right now so i may them a try.

Dont know if anyone can shed any light on these?

Also anyone know where to get clutch release bearings and how much,a trip to nissan is a fair trek thats all
Would this be the right one to order even though the pack says exedy on it??

There's nothing wrong with the Exedy release bearing; it will work with any of the "replacement" clutches and has to be better than one that's been in for years. - You might find that although they've said Exedy it's actually NTK or similar.

ok thanks fella. I thought it would be ok just wanted to check. I changed the release bearing when the clutch was fitted years ago 1 of the retaining clips has snapped off.

Is this why Channy has been spamming people's phones asking about springs for a GTi-R?

you can get AVO springs from hear http://www.dcperformance.co.uk/cheap/124781/nissan/avo-lowering-springs/avtba.html

the AVO springs are a 35mm drop witch i assume looks better than Spax 70mm Front 40mm Back Drop

there's also a guy that makes custom springs for the GTI-R with the drop and spring rate you want, but there about £250 for 4

Thanks for the pointer gtir nath ill give them a go tommorrow.

Im really just after some springs just to get the R through the MOT, so i suppose even standard ones will do. I mean most people have that box of standard parts that we all keep

I just need some for the weekend really,i can even pick up if nearby.??
I live a few miles from Ashton,Manchester.

As far as the clutch release bearing goes,turns out its only £44 from nissan thats cheaper than £67 delivered from some other place i found

:doh: There has to be something that Nissan are cheaper for!
