[project choice: s13 vs s30 2+2]

in my opinion s13 is the best option here.

 

however if you trying to drift a z i would consider the steering angle, brake, and suspension options.

suspension gets expensive rather quickly on these cars.

i don't know about other hybridzer's but my ebrake barely works at all kinda, hard to adjust angle with no ebrake

the steering angle on the z car is very shallow

the chassis is also pretty lose

 

but unless your trying to be competitive or learn to drift

a z will be a good/fun project

the added wheelbase will definately help

definitely a change from all the s13's

[Stance has made coilovers for us.]

just reading the email it sounds like they're selling just the tubes

but it would be pretty awesome if they sold complete units

[Stance has made coilovers for us.]

about damn time.

ask them what are they doing for upper mounts/camber adjustment

i think the price would still come into azc coils price range

[Subaru Rack Size Compared to Stock Z Rack]

does anyone have any info on whether the subaru power steering rack will allow for more steering angle vs. the stock z manual steering rack?

[Daily Driver Stripped Interior]

i started to do this on my z like 2 years ago.

now my car is a track car.

just something to think about

 

the plastic is a couple of pounds(if that) anyways..

[I need suspension advice.]

you will be much more satisfied with coilovers.

even if they a softer rate and not dampening adjustable

the improvement is worth it

especially if you get pillowbal upper mounts.

i've done cut springs.

then aftermarket springs and shocks.

then coilovers.

and i wish i just first did coilovers.

cut springs cause more problems then they solve

[I need suspension advice.]

get 16x8's and the compressor and call it a day

then save for coilovers

one and done

[Celica supra P-type to 280z fitment]

hmmm, opening up the center hole isn't an issue for me, the machine shops are a dime a dozen around here and wont charge much to open them up to the appropriate size, and new lug nuts arent to hard to come by lol. Im getting these for a steal so its worth it still.

 

to paulo: or I can run spacers and not have to bore out the center hole? what size spacer, like 7mm or larger?

 

i think the rear you can run a smaller spacer but the front has the huge honkin spindle/bearing.

i would just machine them out

have some picss of rears only tho

[NEW Z CAR PARTS]

These are AE86 Megan Racing "bolt in" coilovers...

 

i would like to see a company take those 2 middle coilovers and make 2 more....

put on s30 camber plates or simple cnc'd upper hats(non camber adjustable)

bam. s30 coilovers. they would still weld in though

have a basic coilover system and a more racing oriented system

if i had the resources to produce this i would

but i dont..

someone should. hint hint.

 

i would also like to see more

-seat adapter variety for the s30 chassis.

-complete turbo upgrade packages would be cool.(l28)

-bolt on bracing throughout chassis(might be worthless but its a cool idea)

-a cool body kit would be cool. i know the original lip + spoiler + flairs is amazing but it would be col to see something new

-CLUTCH LSD's

[Celica supra P-type to 280z fitment]

they fit but you need to open up the center hole on the wheels a little. or run spacers

and i dont think the ae86 lug nuts will work

[Diff leaking through vent]

this happened to me.

but it was because i filled it up too much

i opened the fill screw and let some oil drain out

cleaned it up and bolted everything back up and it was fine.

but your situation seems different

[Ka24 Throttle body Install]

quick question..

do you use the 240sx tb bolts to bolt it up to the mani?

[SU EFI Manifold Update]
