stony Posted January 4, 2004 Share Posted January 4, 2004 Anyone know if they exist for a Z strut? Im looking at replacing my inserts for some inserts and springs more geared for drag racing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fl327 Posted January 4, 2004 Share Posted January 4, 2004 Do you an early or late 260? I have some worn out stock shocks coming out of my car soon. Ill send em out for shipping cost if you want em. My car is a late 74 280z (11/74) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottie-GNZ Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 Stony, you will be running a seriously fast race car so I advise you do it correctly. I know of no drag shocks made specifically for a 1st-gen Z but I have had good success with Tokico Illuminas. Had them all around from day 1 and kept the fronts when I went to C4 IRS. At the track I run them on the softest setting and it really works for me. On the street I set them on pos 3 (of 5). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stony Posted January 5, 2004 Author Share Posted January 5, 2004 dont worry about it like i said i was just being sarcastic... .wasnt trying to fight... its the thought that counts right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottie-GNZ Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 FL327, sorry if you take offense to advising someone who will be running in the 10s @ 130+ to set their car up properly. I know people think a worn-out shock does the same things but the last thing you want on your car at 130+mph is worn-out front shocks.
