gmclaughlin Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Has anybody upgraded their UK spec suspension and looking to sell their old parts? I have a JDM and I believe that the shocks and springs are different to the UK spec, I get a very strange ride on the motorway and I'm looking to change my current springs and shocks for UK spec to see if this improves my ride.

gmclaughlin Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 Its very bumpy/jumpy at the rear end, i only get the sensation on the motorway, its really bad when the motorway surface is old and bumpy its self! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P15UL T Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 i was going to sugest that perhaps one of your shocks are away although i would imagine that it would then be worse on nornal roads maybe someone will come up with a suspension set for you good luck !

M13KYF Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 how old is your JDM Z from the last quarter of 2004 all JDM Z's have the same suspension as UK models Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who perhaps need to lighten up then We'd only lighten up if we spent the considerable wad in our pockets! There are benefits to being tight!

gmclaughlin Posted January 30, 2007 Author Share Posted January 30, 2007 2003 Model, I know they changed the suspension after to the same as the UK spec and I guessed this is why, of course being so tight I don't want to spend tooo much money on upgraded suspension Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
