I havent used them on a Z before, so I couldnt tell you. I have had both and a few others along the way on different cars, and I always like the eibachs so I went with them for this car.

Glad to hear! And yeah hopefully not into the wall. Just rip a couple open parkinglots before you hit events .
Nice build btw! Keep up the good work and cant wait to see it finished!

@Misteryman! I got the hotchkis ones and they do just find. I think it is a preference. Both will give you good results! .
