RB25 supporting suspension mods

[Neejay]

Already have tension rods and car is currently on stock springs/struts with newly replaced s14 tie rods. Have ST anti-sway bars and front + rear strut bars (which the front one will have to be removed due to clearance).

On the list to get: Coilovers, rear toe rods, rear traction rods, RUCAs. What else?

[zakkkaliscious]

get a greddy intake manifold. you wont have that problem

What are you asking?

Neg on that. Not for a loooong time.

Basically, what is a definite NEED when supporting 300whp.

[Cameron.]

get a nismo power brace it really strengthens up that rear.

Oh, I don't think you would have any problems with suspension. But to make sure ask TheUndersteerKing. He has an RB25, don't know what he's making though.

Isn't the power brace for the front tension rods?

Oh and definately wider tires so you can TRY and keep traction under street driving.

lol adams rb is sttoooccckkkkkkkk (wanting adam to see my comment) but i would replace them 20 year old bushings while you were at it, you could eliminate any wheel hop if you had it.

i thought the damn power brace was for the rear.

oh my bad yea, but there was something that someone made that braced the rear. i guess its called something else, i saw it on nico.

i hate suspension. i just bought a complete adjustable kit today.

Nah. If you go under your car and see the tension rods where they connect to the chassis, the power brace replaces the connections to the chassis and then it has the bar going accross. I'll get a pic. But definately get SPL aluminum bushings, not inserts, the actual bushings that replace the old ones.

And if this is for an S14, then I know that there are lower supports, not sway bars, for the S14 only. I think it conencts the toe rods to each other. I'm not sure though

[Cameron.]

nah its cool i know what your talking about, i just remember seeing something on nico where someone made something that braced the rear. and i thought it was called the power brace

hahah...yeah, that's what I was about to ask on the tires forum too. Right now Im running 205/55/15 heh...

I forgot about the Nismo power brace..hmm...

I also forgot to mention that I have subframe collars, just haven't installed them yet.

If I were you I would get at least 245's, but that's me. Charles with his RB20 (I think) can't keep traction and his are wide as fuck. But then I think he also has a GT30 something turbo.

[Cameron.]

god mines gonna be too much i know it now... my turbos equivilent to the smallest trim of a gt40.

hello 275's i guess.

Oh wow. I didn't know I could run 245 on 15x5.5 wheels (I think that's the width). I guess I have to buy aftermarket wheels later...I'd assume: suspension > wheels (control > traction? - but I guess they go hand and hand...)

You would be doing a major reverse stretch trying to put 245's on stock wheels.

[Nisxsz]

those wheels should be 6" wide.

Yeah, ok. lol That's what I was thinking...

Gotcha.
