AliveBoy Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Just spotted these online, nothing to do with me so if they're rubbish it's not my fault These will get rid of the spring bucket on the rear if you decided to go down the true coilover route. http://www.hardrace.co.uk/nissan-350z-adj-rear-lower-arm-change-the-shock-to-1pc-dei.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobPhoboS Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Nice find, what kind of improvement would that bring for us though ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AliveBoy Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 Nothing huge I wouldn't expect, just looks nicer, the parts are obviously lighter and you'll get much better toe adjustment. I just think if you've gone to the effort of fitting a proper true coilover set up, getting rid of those huge spring buckets would finish it off nicely Maybe the word must was a bit strong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleR Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Quite pricey, i've seen Megan ones for half that on eBay. Nothing compared to the SPL's etc, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
synolimit Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 SPL or nothing! Don't risk a $30,000 car on cheap suspension crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AliveBoy Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 SPL or nothing! Don't risk a $30,000 car on cheap suspension crap. I wouldn't say it's cheap crap, I've had hardrace rear camber arms on my Z for well over a year now and they look pretty much like new still, still adjustable and haven't had any issues at all. Bearing in mind you can't get SPL stuff in the UK it's not really a comparison. Oh and before anyone points at vivid racing saying they are in the UK, they aren't they just display prices in GBP and then ship to the UK from the US, so you still have to pay import taxes etc etc. I also wouldn't say that it's a $30,000 car, it's a £6,000 car, which is very different.

I just purchased some SPL rear camber arms from Clark Motorsport so I hope that you can get them in the UK or I've just been done. Edit: or is it just another trading name for Eibach?

I stand corrected no idea about the trading names of all these companies. I haven't gone true coilover rear, so it's irrelevant to me, just thought I'd share when I saw it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a massive tit who saw SPL and thought 'hey, I just bought some of them!'... I was only one letter out. I might just etch the C out and put an L in its place.
