And be sure to tip Anthony in the install bay, he can do 8 Z's a day
and have him check the "clunk" upper control arm bushings - no charge.. P.S. Yugi and Anthony are Nissan Skyline fans..

I might be thinking to hard, but what's your point?
Progressive = compromise.

Great pics btw.

Pretty awesome play by play, Amy. Thanks! Can't wait to get my S-Tune suspension so I can install it.

BTW, NICE bike! Yugi has my kind of taste.

Smile Update 18" Stock Wheels

Added 18" stock Six Spoke wheels..

They actually helped the ride..

From what we can determine, this indicates the bounce problem
is the Shocks are not correct for the spring rate.

Koni is testing now a set of Shocks, which cut the "Bobble Head Doll" ride on short Concrete roadbeds.

Stay tuned for Eric Hu's comentary, as he will be providing the 350Z Koni's in the So CAlifornia Area..


P.S. The opening of Super AutoBacs in Stanton / Garden Grove area.

https://my350z.com/forum/showthread....threadid=40710



As you see in last photo, the Z has droped too much after the Eibachs have set.. The Silver Z with the Japanese Elderly Driver Teardrop.


With 18" Stock Six Spokes and 2 months of use.



Cheers Amy -

Discount tire is cheap, but i had some suspension done there before and they practically ripped my interior apart. This car had rear struts and the towers were in the trunk, but to get to it, they had to find all the plastic covers and carpet clips. They didn't bother, they tore it off if they didn't know. After it was done, I was missing a whole bunch of clips that they didn't want to put back correctly. I guess they don't know all the different car interiors so they do it the fast way. Luckily it wasn't my Z and it was a long time ago. But if I were you I would go to autobacs in stanton or signal auto in torrance, motorex in gardena, and there's a place on 1610 artesia #2, in gardena that sells/installs teins there number was 310-532-6713. But first thing is get some quotes from these places for install and compare them with stillen. I did get an exhaust installed at stillen, i think the shop is clean and they did a good job. If the price is good, i think any of the above mentioned are better than most volume dealers like discount, but sounds like they are getting their act together nowadays and yeah, can't beat some of their prices.

The thing that Mark wasn't aware is you don't have to go into the Trunk from above in the 350Z... unlike all others before.
