Koni Yellows - APtuned.com seem to be the cheapest around at 800$ plus shipping (i emailed them for availability 55$ for shipping to me)
Koni spring sleeve kit for the front only (correct kit part# 30 0000 000 5 verified with Koni)- 43.76$ from Summit

Megan Racing rear spring seat - 24$ (on back order for about 6weeks)

1316.64$ to my door

anything I am missing here Mike?

 

Try calling BC for the rear perches, I bet they are cheaper and in stock. Make sure the front sleeves are sold in a pair. You should look around on the interwebz for used springs. You can generally find pretty lightly used springs for way under new value. 75-90 is going rate for a used pair of Eibach/Hyperco.

 

ya the front sleeves are 21$ a piece. and I priced the springs as a set. 65$ per spring shipped . I tried calling BC but apparently they are still on holiday time and are not there. Ill try them back next week

 

on a side note i just noticed that Truechoice builds exactly this koni coilover setup for the Z and they have a number of different koni setups available.

 

I didn't have a great experience with truechoice, but my guess is you can do it cheaper piecing it together elsewhere...

 

Probably. Usually means it costs a lot when you don't list prices on your website lol

 

There will probably be a lack of updates for a while. I apologize. Working a lot of hours during the week and trying to get the car back together for the first National in Georgia on the weekends. Have a hell of a list to get the car running again. It has not been been run since the second weekend of September.

 

If you have a question about a topic not covered or one that you think needs more clarification, just PM me or post it here. I'll do my best to answer it in a timely manner.

 

bump for updates

 

You simmer down over there...

...might be a bit for the next update. I'm lazy and I don't like you guys .

 

Mike not sure if you remember me or not, but I'm driving an FRS now in STX and saw that you will also be at Wilmington in April. See you there!

Miss having a Z....

 

Sure will...drag some locals down in BSP so I can win tires. kthxbye .

 

great read thanks for the write up

 

Eventually I will finish this. I am also 95% sure I am going to take the car to F-prepared next year, so I will keep a running build/photo thread for that as well.

 

sounds good i run ssm lol so keep on building. how far do u travel for events an in Chicago
area would love to see u guys run some time.

 

The national championship and Pro Finale is in Lincoln, NE in a month...

 

that is a 7 hour drive. how far do u guys travel for these events. also i know everyone keeps talking about the diff being the best upgrade. with them all fighting inside wheel spin. is these common with all stock diffs to do this. if so i have never had this problem from 245 street tires to 285 rs3 to my 295 a6. starting to wounder if it has a aftermarket diff in it.

 

It's a little under 20 hours towing each way...

 

dose anyone on here have adjustable caster. i have mine at 9 in the front. i was going of what others were telling me for setup. but i feel it is to high for auto x. i keep reading info like this "Increased caster effectively reduces the responsiveness, but also helps camber gain as mentioned. Good for street and high speed track, but poor for autocross. "


an congrats to the guys at nationals.

 

I plan to update/finish this in the next couple months.
