Talking My NEW toy for my Z

I got me some new coilovers! As of right now, they're the only ones ever produced from Zeal for the 350Z/G35 platform in the world. Yes yes, here are the pictures!


























Pictures from Endless USA's own blog site:







A small list of standard features for the Super Function Type-C include coilover type in the rear, independent compression and rebound settings, remote reservoirs, dial adjuster extensions.. etc etc. Even the reservoirs have height adjustable brackets! Notice the adjustment dials for rebound on the remote reservoirs?





Some pictures I just took with our crappy shop camera. Say hello to our new Nismo girl, Nicky. She probably has more hands on mechanic time than most guys I know.








They're so pretty, I sorta just wanna mount them in my bedroom just to stare at every day. j/k Unfortunately, my home tools were stolen a couple years ago so I'm not sure when I can install them. I'll definitely take plenty of pictures while installing them though! Stay tuned!

In the pictures, one of them is shorter than the others. Those are the rears.

14kg all the way around!

Andy said it actually wasn't that bad when he went for a ride with me.

Oh wow, must be nice. Congrat's on what I'm sure is a awesome setup. If anyone can make 14Kg workable off the track in this country, Zeal would be the one. If LA was a little closer to me I'd seriouly be interested in a drive along.
