I know nothing, but they seem to be of quality

A member had a set for sale(which I slept on...). I spoke to a few people at a prosolo event and they were all very happy with them. What I got from them were that some of the builders were from moton suspension.
They are local to you as well. Stop in there. When I plan to upgrade my clubsport KW I will be looking at these.

Yea, I saw the for sale post, that's the only Z related post on MCS I found. Other car forums seem to say great things about them. Yes they are local to my family home, unfortunately I am in Chicago currently, but that's not an issue. I emailed them with questions and got a prompt response immediately, they certain are tempting to try, although their 1 way rebound adjustable shocks (w/o springs or top mounts) are same price range as KW Clubsports...

can you expand on why you'd take MCS over both of those? I believe KWs and Truechoices I-IV are twin tube designs while MCS is monotube. I really want to try the MCS but just thinking about sourcing springs, rear spring seat, top hats etc. will add to the cost quickly. Intesreting on the Ohlins, I'll take a look via search.

If you look at Ohlins, search in the UK. The pound is very weak and parts are crazy cheap.
I had truechoice IV's...both OTS and shortened, but they were crap on the bumps and couldn't take the spring rates I needed. Had Koni essentially max out the possible rebound control and it still wasn't enough. KW CS's cannot be rebuilt for increased spring rates. In fact KW will cut you off if they find out you service them outside of the OE specs. They are ok..ish, but it limits their versatility in the future. Single ohlins will handle about the same spring rates as KW and Truechoice, but will be WAY better on bumps and vendors in the U.S can re-valve them for higher rates (such as PSI in California).

All you really need to do is increase the spring rates vs what they are shipped with and you are good to go. It comes with upper mounts and perches.
It does look like they can be had for about 2250 shipped from U.S. vendors as well...

thanks for your input. it sounds like on the ohlins the rear springs are flat on one end and pigtail on the other... is this easily replaced? I have only seen universal race springs with both ends flat.
this is for a 370Z, but I believe 350Z is the same:
