actually, just go to the dealer and get the part number, or even go to autozone, if they have calipers for our cars yet, and match the part numbers with them!

 

Charles if you need any testers for the drag suspension Id like to try it-as I was planing on redoing my current overly stiff+negative camber JIC set-up. Im fairly consistent, last time out in hotter weather than my 11.98@114 I ran the folowing times-and I have vids to prove it

11.992 @ 115
11.997 @ 116
12.026 @ 116
12.027 @ 116
12.037 @ 116
12.105 @ 115
12.108 @ 115

Let me know if you'd be interested

 

wow, that is rediculously consistent. Practice much?! LOL!!

And not that i dont believe you, but i wouldnt mind watching some of those videos too!

 

i am putting together a spring and shock combo that will be custom for it.

the color looks awesome, but there is a lot left to get done with the paint job tho, several panels still have not been wetsanded and buffed and the rear bumper needs to be resprayed.

 

looks good man....

subscribing. im using same wheels and close tire to what you currently are. but i have been waiting for someone to design a drag suspension for it.... let me know what you go with for springs and shocks

 

you are precisely correct! I just couldnt get an inexpensive 15 x 9 with 6" Backspacing! otherwise i would have.

 

when my rear fenders are on im going to try and fit a 15x10 with 6.5" backspacing and the 315/60-15 mickeys. With 2" extra on each fender i dont think it will be a problem. But i havent done any measuring yet.

 

Dont be so cheap man!!

yea i think the 315s are a 30" arent they? My friend lifts the front end off the ground with those in that size in his 03 Cobra. Its possible that their width might even fit a stock 350z if you got the backspacing perfect, but the height is really gonna kill ya, the fender tapers in a lot as it goes up... perhaps with some super high springs/shocks tho

 

30" diameter imo wouldnt be ideal even if the width of the tire cleared, thats 4" over stock and what most run! Your gears would be WAY too long....

 

Phunk,
Do you think there is alot to gain with a drag set up on the Z?I mean Jasons 1.66 60 ft is not to shabby for a stock suspension and Nismo LSD. The boy shure can drive..If he lost 50Lbs, he might actually go faster..

 

There is always something to gain. Once dialed in it should be a pretty consistent set-up.

Edit-to me if he could hit consistent 1.5 60ft's that would be a lot of gain...

 

Specification Sidewall Radius Diameter Circumference Revs/Mile Difference
275/50-15 5.4in 12.9in 25.8in 81.1in 781 0.0%
315/60-15 7.4in 14.9in 29.9in 93.9in 675 15.7%
325/50-15 6.4in 13.9in 27.8in 87.3in 726 7.6%


I think it still might fit with the fenders i have, They dont taper down nearly as much as the stock ones, but you are right the 315 is alot taller. With the relatively short gearing already and the power im making i was looking for a taller tire anyways so i can ride the gears out more. The 325 probly would be a better choice for fitment though.

 

There are supra guys on drag coilovers hitting 1.4's

 

bump ... any update ?

Thanks

 

Well if your weather is anything like what we are getting over here, then your probably not having a good day.

If you did get to run it, let us know!

 

bah, that easy, i was that consistant ...... drivng my auto 98 SS.
