+1 for Josh- he installed my coilovers and sway bars in 1.5 hours.

I know you don't want to do headers again, but I'm sure for the right price you would. PM me, and let me know how much you want for headers, cats, plenum spacer, and a crank pulley.

hey i may have someone for you. acustomer of mine from socal, with a g35 coupe is looking to upgrade his suspension. the main issue is, he has 20 inch wheels, so baiscally the end result he wants is a 80 percent competant daily driver that corners well, and 20 percent occassaional track car for fun.

he is wondering what hte best for hte money set up would be for him?

let me know...

he is debaying between struts and put on Z springs, and sway bars
or sway bars and a full blown tein coil over...

hey 16psibrick what is up.
i am a little lost as to what you are trying to gather.
if he wants to do some track
then ditch the 20's and get some 17-18's
and
how much is he trying to spend.

he knows it cant be a seirous track car with those wheels...

basically, spending is not the issue, its more like, what set up will get him most for hte money...

meaning, if the extra money spent on coilovers and sways... is not relaly going to help him much because of his 20" wheels, then he maybe should just do Z springs, struts and sways.

i would advice him myself but i figured you would have more personal experience with this

Thx Josh for doing a good job installing springs on my Z, as well as Dana of AutoRnD for assisting as well. These guys know what they are doing and you can trust them to do a problem free installation. I would highly recommend them for installing parts as they have the right tools, knowledge, good pricing, and as well as being friendly and easy to talk to. Highly recommended for part installations. Check with Dana at AutoRnD as well if you need any parts and wheels, especially if you are looking for AME wheels and they will offer competitive pricing. Overall, thumbs up for Josh and AutoRnD.

thanks selski12.. i should of gotten a ride in your z =)
hehehe

also... if you want...
have your friend contact me
and i will take him for a ride and he can tell me how he likes the car w/ just zeal coilovers..
i've had normal spring shock combo
and then zeals
and the zeals kick butt in terms of body roll and even streetability.
and that way he can see if he wants to spend a little bit of dough on zeals
and then if he thinks that aint enough then he could go w/ sways but i love grip
and i have yet to need to go with sways

I just got my Hotckis TVS 1 kit (sways and springs) w/ the McMaster collars installed this morning by Josh - couldn't have been better! He was on time, quick (only 1.5 hours), and knew what he was doing. thanks Josh!

I just installed Borla headers and dual exhaust on my 350Z this past weekend and there for a while I thought the headers were going to be impossible. There just isn't a whole lot of room. I have no idea how I am going to get a torque wrench to torque those header nuts down to factory specs, even with rigging up extensions and universal joints without a lift or pulling the engine. I just don't think there is an easy way of doing it.
