Gaz Shock and Spring selection.

[Eternal]

Hello All!

Long time no see
I'm looking at getting my shocks organized for the Skyline Roadster and could do with some advice. As most of you know it's got a rather large engine(300kgs with gearbox), a 135mm chassis stretch, and 2mm wall with welded 3mm steel floor so its quite a bit heaver than a normal Haynes Roadster. Can anyone please give me some advice as to what spring rates I should be using and also what shock to use? I'm using the standard Sierra build from the book so I think its 14" shocks that are required.

So far I think I should be using this... from Page 15 here. http://www.gazshocks.com/images/down...talogue_V2.pdf
