I have a problem w/ the TEIN's, according to the one Japanese review of them (comparing them to the other coilover options) they actually fared badly in the ride department, lower than I believe all the other options... They're being overhyped I think... I would go w/ the Hipermax..

There are a few options here, but all are limited. We have not seen an influx of just upgraded struts yet from the manufacturers. They will be coming, but no one has stepped up to the plate yet. All the solutions today will worse case lower the car .8 inches.
This would be the Eibach Pro kit. The bounce is still though, mostly related to the rebound characteristics of the factory struts. I recommend the JIC coilovers as ride height is adjustable as is dampening and rebound. As set runs around $1700.00
The other alternative is to wait a while until we see a decent strut that we would recommend. Unless you are doing any auto-X or road course events - The Eibach kit with some strut will solve the problem.
Please feel free to call to discuss in more detail.

Sir,
I'm trying to reduce the severe "bounce" in my 2003 Nissan 350Z. Can you recommend a shock/spring solution? I'm not interested in lowering my Z.
Thank You!

I really would like to try the HKS LS coilovers, I like the idea of a ride like a firmed up GS430 w/ the handling of the Z, but the priority list is not in my favor at the moment. I'll watch my air pressure very closely and wait. Something will turn up that does the trick, always happens. I can wait.
