Nice! specs?

 

Im probably just gunna refinish the stock V.1 track wheels lol otherwise id sell them to you. I dont feel like dropping 2k on a set of enkei's and brand new tires

 

Thanks, the PSS's they're threaded height adjustable just like your ohlins the only big difference is that the PSS's im looking to get are non-damping adjustable and the spring rates are far softer which is fine. For maybe 1K its good value kit.

 

Fronts +15 18x9.5 Rears +15 18x10.5. Thinking about running Nitto NT05 front 275-35-18 Rears 295-35-18. Hopefully will help with all the traction issues after going turbo

 

Great, you should have plenty of tire options.

I'm running 19x9.5 (+22) and 19x10.5 (+22). Using Pilot supersports in 275/30 and 305/30.

Honestly I am pushing limits with the 305's, but If I went 295's, I'm not sure if those might be too short and mess w VDC.

I think the 18" tire profiles are a little more rounded so you should have better luck... even though you're at +15.

Looking forward to seeing your finished setup. RPF1 = legendary performance. Always loved those no matter the car.

 

Between you and me, I have not touched the adjustments on mine yet. Once i get a different Daily driver, I may play more. also once the weather warms up and I get new tires...

 

Trying to figure out my next mod, so I can budget for it.

 

sway bars

 

Sway bars should help out a lot but my suggestion is to replace your diff bushings if you haven't already, its a fairly expensive job in comparison to the sway bars but they make a HUGE difference to how the car shifts and how it puts down power. My car used to wheel hop pretty bad under launches and there was a lot of drivetrain shock when up-shifting. Now, however, my car is not wheel hopping at all in the rear and I can shift much much smoother and faster.

 

It all depends on whats been done to the car already, at this point it's at least 10 years old, and whatever miles... Next modification might be just fixing things that need attention.

Such as bushings, and brakes, exhaust, suspension, etc, etc, etc...

Nothing makes the car look better than a nice new set of wheels.

I didn't think the car could handle any better than it did once I swapped out the stock suspension, but once I put sway bars in it did feel noticeably stiffer... (has also caused my back wheels to come off the ground on uneven surfaces)

Subframe and diff bushings are cheap and well worth it, its the labor involved putting them in that cost lots of your time. (Or money if your paying someone else to do it.

So I would say ditch the factory stereo and add a sub, makes driving on long trips more enjoyable.

 

And today I froze my *** off and did a no rinse wash. The water that fell off then car is now frozen. Looks better though...

 

I've been thinking about new sway bars. I've never really considered replacing the diff bushings

 

I have the b14 pss kit. Love it

 

I cant spend 3k on some coilovers, wish i could. I have done tons of research in the past month and really like the feal coilovers terrasmack is always mentioning. They valve them for your specific need and put the appropriate calculated spring rate with swift springs in, also fully adjustable. They run $1350 and seem the best bang for the buck. Not in to the stance or bc thing

 

Is that a question? Best bang for buck is tein street basics imo.

 

^^^ for most people that just daily the car or drive around here and there this is a good option

 

From what Ive heard and things Ive read, the Feal Coilover kit on ZOCIETy's website is pretty good--Its equally as good as the fortune auto coilovers lol. There's no such thing as a proper spring rate but the springs in the feal suspension kit are far stiffer than stock which just makes the car better for track use. I'm going with the softer setup b14 coilovers because the roads in CT/MA area are complete T R A S H.

 

I just realized the Feal suspension kit uses 11K front and 4K rear springs (615 ibs/in F, 222 ibs/in R) which even when you account for wheel rates and other stuff, it seems the feal suspension kit is gonna be really really really understeery compared to stock...that's not good.

 

Got some new rotors in the mail today. They are super heavy. O well.

 

Got the (!) light to go Standby.

Had to jump through a couple hoops, ebay and Americas Tire; made the 350Z Great, again!
