Crohweder280zx Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Hello everyone! Im new to the z world and have just recently purchased a 81 280zx N/A. i would like to take it to my local track for open run an time attack. my question is . Has anyone used the k sport coilover set up an if so what needs to be welded on the kit? Hopefully this isnt a tired subject but i cant find any info on the s130 coilover kits. Thanks Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComicArtist Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Rears pretty much bolt up, fronts have to be welded into the spindle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluDestiny Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 You can find a set of used S13 coilovers and do the same exact thing you would with the ksport kit. Mightymaxx had a good write up on how he used megan s13 coilovers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnc Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Search the site or do some Google searching. The shock itself is inconsistent, cross bleeds, and no two shocks are the same regarding the valving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluDestiny Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Do a search on Zilvia and you'll find out. Mostly from leaks, but then again those guys lower it way to much. Consensus is that for the money you can get better brand coilovers. http://zilvia.net/f/chat/373069-ksport-slide-kontrol-review-anybody.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crohweder280zx Posted March 30, 2013 Author Share Posted March 30, 2013 So far in my search I found making the s13 coil overs fit or going with the modern motorsport setup seems to be the better choices just cuz you get better parts to use.
