hey so i drive a 05 Z. i currently run tokico D spec's and the red swifts on my car at the moment. i wanted to get a lil more height adjustability and less body roll and i wouldnt mind the ride a lil more stiffer. (i have it set to the max) i honestly would not be hitting the track on a regular basis. maybe once a year if i can get in with some ppl. but i would be driving round the canyons and i must sadly say there are alot of times i drive aggressively on the street and i know that is not the same as being on the track. but where as you have alot more things to dodge on the street if for some reason something happened. i was just wondering which coilovers would suit my needs better? zeal function Xs or the DG5?? i read alot on the zeals but i cant really find much through the search function on the DG5

 

Cool story bro.



Neither...both are super overkill for your needs.

 

Do you have aftermarket sways yet?

 

no sways. what about ohlins? more overkill?

 

what about the kw v3? anyone?

 

Probably another overkill. From what I gather, most people do not know how to set all KW V3 adjustments correctly because you would need sophisticated equipment to do it.

I just did a bunch of research on coilovers myself as I am about to replace my stock shocks and I ended up choosing Bilstein PSS. Every review out there says nothing but good things (from knowledgeable people that know what they're talking about) and Bilstein is really a reputable name. If you want height and dampening adjustability, go with PSS10 model. Bilstein offers excellent service and it's easy and cheap to revalve them if you decide that you want to go up in spring rates. Zee good 'ole ZGerman prezision, yes?

 

^ Listen to this man, he did his research. Bilstein makes a damn good coilover. Arguably the best in their price range.

If not Bilstein, try the KW 2 or even a cheaper coil like Stance. You dont need to spend 2k+ on a coil setup if you arent even going to corner balance and track your Z.

 

well im going to corner balance and align and do all the goodies. i was thinkin if i get the kw v3 i would try to go through robispec. (if he would do a 350z) and if i got the zeals or ohlins i was thinkin of goin through westend or M-workz.

 

do they have a service center in america?

 

yes

 

thank you. ima research the bilsteins

 

I have a set of Bilstien PSS9s they are great for street driving real comfortable but great for hard corners as well and ok for the track. If money was no object i would have got Ohlins.

 

I believe they do have 1 on the east coast and another one on the west coast. Do confirm this when you're looking into it.

 

Gang references are so cool
