ab350z Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 Folks, I bought the Tien springs that were for sale on here, but was wondering if there was maybe anything else worth changing at the same time as I know lowering springs on their own can wear the standard shocks a bit quicker. Budget is a little tight so cant go down the KW Variants route just yet, was just looking for some slight cosmetic and handling improvements. Sway bars worth investing in?? Quote
3FIDDYZ Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 Yep, sway bars are a good investment, What height change you looking at? Quote
ab350z Posted February 17, 2009 Author Posted February 17, 2009 I think the Tein springs were 17-20mm as opposed to the 30mm Eibach. I've got the Nismo lip on the front and it already struggles with bigger speed bumps and steep car park ramps, any lower would just be silly. Quote
From A to Zed Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 Hi, I have just ordered some springs and swaybars from Adam @ Z1. Despite the pound taking a worse dive than Cristiano Ronaldo I was still very happy with the price. I would love some KW version 3's too but it's hard to justify the cost at the moment... Matt Quote
N15MNO-Daron Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 Wud u be able to take a few photos of the sway bars fittted.. im also keen on getting some.. but been pounded by other members on here for the idea as i dont use my car for trackdays... Quote
From A to Zed Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 Sure, I'm waiting for delivery at the moment but once they're fitted I will get some pictures up - might be a few weeks yet... Matt Quote
Ian Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 im also keen on getting some.. but been pounded by other members on here for the idea as i dont use my car for trackdays... who by? I've got the cusco sways & my car has never seen a track Quote
ChrisUUC Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 Guys refreshing this as I wanted to know on standard Rays wheels and with 20mm spacer kit all round, what springs on the market offer a good drop all round, for a facelift 06 350z ? Want it ideally just above the tyres ... Chris Quote
sketch Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 i bought some teins, handling wise they are perfect but i must say im a little dissapointed apprerance wise, wished i had gone with the Eibach -30mm kit now, -14mm at the back be cheaper just to put a couple of bags of suger in the boot. Not had them on the track yet but hope to go to the Nurburg Ring early next year, surpose being a little higher than most will sum how be slightly more practical Quote
Dblock Posted November 27, 2009 Posted November 27, 2009 im also keen on getting some.. but been pounded by other members on here for the idea as i dont use my car for trackdays... who by? I've got the cusco sways & my car has never seen a track I have cusco ones plus Eibach springs. Dont track my car or even drive it "sprinted" but it makes it look cooler really does make the handling alot better plus I feel safer in it now feels alot tighter. Quote
rawbhp Posted November 27, 2009 Posted November 27, 2009 I went for Teins in the end. Whilst I'd prefer the look of Eibachs, my car just scrapes some speed bumps as it is. With a 30mm drop I'd have no chance. I had it on track at Snetterton last week and it was great, although I could do with reducing the roll a touch. Quote
Adriank Posted November 27, 2009 Posted November 27, 2009 I have whiteline ARB's on mine, makes a small difference but not huge. You would probably find that the rear camber/toe adjuster setup will make more difference than the sway bars. Changing the standard rubber suspension bushs for poly ones (Eg Whiteline) makes a big difference aswell, much more than the sways IMO. Quote
ChrisUUC Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 Anyone any pictures with theirs lowered on the Eibachs? Quote
Stew Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 Have a look here viewtopic.php?f=34&t=15956 viewtopic.php?f=22&t=20027 There are loads of others with Eibachs too. Quote
