  1. I have a 71 240 z that I cut 1 1/3 or 1 1/2 coils off top of front stock springs with a cut off wheel, because front set 1" higher than back. I have KYB shocks, Car now sets level. I took a guess, got lucky first time. I made sure tire pressure was same all 4 tires, then measured to center edge of fender opening to get an idea of how much I wanted to lower. I found a reference of approximately how much to cut off on one of these z websites where someone else did a spring cut, can't remember which one. I did a ratio of their cut to how much I wanted to take off. I didn't flatten end coil where I cut off, as it sets in spring cup good as is. I'm happy with height and ride, and glad I did it.
  2. 2008 bought 71 240z, was not running.

    Running well summer 2010, z therapy carbs, new stock distributor, coil, wires, had a bad connection between coil and starter.
