I'll have a set of Eibachs - Progressive wound Seven Coils vs Four Coil Lianier Wound ( stock ) for sale in a few weeks.

I'm puting on a set of Hotchkis 350Z Silver Powder Coated springs.

Check www.hotchkistuning.com - Price may not be on the web site - but about $200 U.S.D.


Tonight I drove the Hotchkis street car. 19" Volks GT-7's with Toyo's
Hotchkis Sways ( Set Medium ) on the 6SP Performance with Borla TD's - I loved the ride. This is with stock struts and shocks. I must say very little of the dreaded "Bounce".

Cornering was unreal, I'd gear slow to 2nd, and Crank the wheel for the turn, and power out... Just awsum....
These springs have a higher spring rate than stock, so they more often match the Strut/Shock timing rate of the stock struts.

I went thru corners 20 MPH faster with the test car than my own Stock Car. Like FLAT !

Cheers Amy -


Check with our Forum User wld350z - The guy with the Rear Camber Rod's he made from scratch..

Getting the second set of proto-types tommorrow. Heh !

P.S. The freeway drive was awsum.. Set a line and chose.

The Hotchkis Workes has done it again. Still smileing.
