Struts and shocks for Turbo 2 + 2=limited choices

[Guest jjohart]

I've an 83 ZXT, and there are very few choices I can find on the major Z parts seller sites (MSA, Zbarn, Zparts) that support the 2 + 2 Turbo configuration. My springs and struts are near the end of their life cycle, so I am really wondering what brand might work, preferably the same for all of em, other than sticking with stock. I would prefer progressive rate springs, but I guess I'm not in a position to choose!

At this point, I"ve been warned not to use 16'' wheels, since they may rub with the squatty, old springs I've got!!

Thanks

John

John, are coli-overs are possibility with you? Either yes or no, you could still contact Ross C at http://www.modern-motorsports.com/catalog/default.php since he has a ZX with and EFI V8.

 

I can almost guarantee he'll have answers to your questions.

Im just in the middle of putting koni adjustables in mine, the backs went in fine, the fronts have taken a little more because of the use of adjustable camber plates. And my front wheels no longer bolt up as the offset was +2mm i think and with 235 tires they hit the coils. And im using King springs.

The rears were for a RX7 and the fronts are for a Z31

To NZ replicant: according to my inquiries for Koni USA, they no longer make products for 280Zs and the like, "the remaining stock until exhausted" is all that might be around, and even said, that's only for the rears!
