Hi guys, I am searching for some hot suspension upgrade for my 500+bhp 350Z, since the current shocks aren't up for the job...

I just found the "Mine's ESTA Suspension System" but at 12.000$ I guess it's REALLY HOT!!!!

So I found out that (since it's a TOP suspension) findind the "ingredients" sould be the right way to go.. So it's no other than the Ohlins DFV suspension kit with Eibach springs (wich cost around 3.000$).

Any opinion about the Ohlins? Do you think I sould go for it?

p.s. here in Greece the road is ALL bends !!!

 

Not many people on this board have much if any experience with Ohlins coilovers on this platform. I have a set for my personal car at the shop, but I have not driven on them yet so I don't have a review on them. I know Ohlins is a top notch company which is why I choose them. I say if you have the money for them then go for it, I seriously doubt you will be disappointed at all.

 

I went with a set of ZEAL Super Function dampers over those Ohlins. Eibach springs aren't anything special. I read somewhere their springs are within 20% of each springs advertised rate. I don't think that's acceptable for a $3000 coilover. The front doesn't have a coaxial mount which will sideload the piston when it compressses. I'm sure the valving is extremely high quality however. ZEAL will make a coilover rear damper for you.

Dominic can be brutal over at Endless so refrain from asking dumb questions or you will be black listed and made fun of.

 

Larry, where did you read this?

 

I'll look for it. I don't remember where I saw it.
