JMortensen Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 No. In order to do that properly you'd have to have spring rates that wouldn't allow bottoming (often) within the available travel. I don't have an idea of what that would take, but I'd imagine 1000 in/lbs or more. Then of course you'd need the chassis to work with those spring rates and shocks to control it all.

Rimal310 Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Can't decide. Just got off the phone with Ground control. They would do 399 for the coilvers, $520 for tokico illuminas, and 599 for adj camber plates. so $1520 for everything. I've had ground controls before (for the e30, not the z). AZC kit is $1600. Shocks have more finite adjustment. A possible advantage here is I will be getting brakes from them front and back (4 piston 12.2" up front. Can't afford the 6 pot or 13") so maybe this would help me pricewise? if price is a factor, i heard the guys at AZC break you off a good deal if you make a big purchase since you did say you'd be getting brakes from them as well. Another guy i met on the Hybridz said they gave him an amazing deal when he bought brakes, everything you mentioned and the diff mounts/mustache bars from them. i like the simplicity of the GC camber plate install.

Would bad dog frame rails suffice for enough chassis support? i will also be running front and rear strut bars with stock sway bars on 225f and 200r coil overs. Not to aggressive of a spring rat. i thought this might be good reference to my question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMortensen Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Search "chassis stiffening". Bad Dog rails are one part of a bigger solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B00STDZ Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Heres where my car is sitting... it has completely stock suspension. I think about a 3" drop might put it where it needs to be.Im also considering getting bigger and wider rims to fill the space...(maybe 19's or 20's) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JIM73240Z Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 I think you have to use his camber plate with his shocks. I might be wrong though. Its not too bad to weld in the camber plates. jimbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
