As I was working on my back brakes (see other posts) yesterday, I noticed my sport shocks (Red) in the back were leaking oil. So, I need some new ones.

As you can see from my sig, I have 350Z springs and Hotchkis swaybars. I don't track the car, but I do drive it hard now and then. What are your recommendations? I have looked at the Tokico HRs and D-specs also the Koni Yellows (pricey). I would like a little adjustment as to compression and rebound also.

Your suggestions will be appreciated.

 

thought about upgrading to coils?

if not, ive heard good things about the tokico d specs

 

Don't think I want to go C/O yet.

 

I'm more curious what might have caused the failure. Z springs shouldn't be too much for sedan sport shocks should they? I can't recall if you're running revised or unrevised.

 

Un revised (supposedly)

 

You don't need adjustable compression as that is based on weight of tire/wheels and body. However adjustable rebound lets you double the life of shocks [unless they start leaking] by progressive annual readjustment.

 

What did you decide to do?

 

Got DSP-7's coming. $509 shipped.

 

Nice, adjustability ftw, post up when you get 'em on.

 

Will do. I'm rippin it apart NY's day.

 

Congrats. I love my Konis although they are set up a bit stiff.
