I´ve been thinking for a while to get a suspension kit for my Z and make it look more neat and sporty; actually the Z has the original suspension and it drives smoothly andd soft; wich is the kind a ´drive I like; but many folks have told me that the Z would win much more if I get a nice suspension kit on it, like Tein Super street with EDFC many folks have told me ncie things about it;

Now they manin question is and my worry is;

will it change the driven into a much more stiffed and hard drive?

I mean I know the stetic and look would be really beautiful with it car much more lower, but...what are the benefits ups and dowsn of installing these??

are there any other suspensions kits than can be regulated and feel much more soft on the driving?

please help on this one!

For track use EDFC would be useful but I think its pointless for normal roads.

 

I would get these

I'd say yes. I had Tein super streets on my old black Z, ok the ride is stiffer than standard but you have to expect that, but the car stuck like glue round corners it was amazing. Didn't have EDFC though.

I have got Tein super street and can assure you that they're not too firm at all. I have kept them on my car and am happy that they are a good compromise between track and road.

Mmmm will check this MeisterR, not sure if they got them in Spain?

ahhh that´s cool:)

someone told me that I should fit some Blistein with Eibach; that´s the less stiffed Imma find in the market

is that true?

Sounds like they where talking about shocks/springs. Just get some coilovers as they are fully adjustable.

like wich??

The Tein or the MeisterR ones.

Must admit im tempted with the MeisterR ones!!

I had teins on mine and i ound them a little to hard, Swaped them for BC coilovers and they are spot on for everyday use.

 

Then you can stiffen them up for a bit of fun :)

They will be my next purchase... when we finish the manual conversion. I've seen them on a few cars and they just look lush, and I've only heard good reports from those who have them on their cars.

I´ve had few opinions about Tein Monoflex on their Z´s and they talk pretty good about them. What they state is that you can expect never to have a good suspensions with lowering slam the Z and make it look beautiful aggresive and at the same time expect a smooth easy drive...afterall a sport cars is never a smooth easy drive comfort..even when you jump into a Ferrari or Lambor you feel that stiff on them..so I guess I will take the chance and go for some TEIN Monoflex with EFDC and see how it works:)=:drool:

The point is suspension can be too firm for the road because it's not flat and smooth like the track. Monoflex may well prove to be difficult to drive fast on the road as you'll spend more time flying :)

Monoflex tend to come in a 8kg/6kg range, which is an accepted spring rate for a Road setup for the Z. You could get custom rates (6/4) for a softer ride.

 

I'd spend the money on the Meister-R's myself though. Comparable spec but a lot better value.

 

Teins tend to be overpriced and the Super-streets are very poorly specced for the price, with a dated twin tube design and non-independed ride height control.
