Sideways Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 Hi guys, I'm looking for quite a big drop on my Z. What I'm aiming for is around 40-60mm drop. I have read that I wil need to dial in the camber. Can someone please suggest a brand of coilovers capable of this for less than 1k and the variuos other componants? Preferably I';m looking for someone with pics of their Z with a similar drop and anything they needed along with the coilovers. As far as I'm rading I need Rear Adjustable Camber Arm & Front Adjustable Control Arms Is this correct or is there other companants I'm missing from this build? Quote
ZMANALEX Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 SPC is the way to go for the front and rear adjustable arms. Choice of coil over will depend on what the car is to be predominantly used for. You will also have to change to adjustable drop links and replace the front lower suspension ball joints. Alex. Quote
mctwistuk Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 Not too sure if they make them for a z but bc coilovers get good reviews for imprezas. I am running a set of kw variant 3 on my impreza and cant fault them one bit Quote
Sideways Posted October 15, 2014 Author Posted October 15, 2014 Anyone know a good drop with photos of their Zed to show? Quote
GMballistic Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 Anyone know a good drop with photos of their Zed to show? I personally wouldn't go too low as it will just be a PITA to drive on the roads, get in & out of car parks etc. Some threads here that may be of interest, most contain pics.

MeisterR Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 The Z33 suspensions actually is quite long, and that mean you can get quite a bit of adjustment in. If this is mainly for road use, I would stick to the OEM "in board springs" design. Front camber arms are useful (OEM are not adjustable). Rear camber arms may be needed (OEM have some adjustments, depends if it is enough). We have the Zeta-S in stock. You can see some pictures and reviews here: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/71285-meisterr-pictures-and-testimonial-for-new-website/#entry1065904 Jerrick Quote
Sideways Posted February 2, 2015 Author Posted February 2, 2015 Dropped mine this week Nice! I just ordered BC Racing Coil overs, took me long enough since the start of this post, thanks for all the replies folks. Just out of curiosity, how much is that dropped by? and did it require anything to dial in the camber? Quote
