will the z h-techs on a Gcpe hold up fine on stock struts???? or should they be changed.....

 

anybody know the best place to get these?

 

????

 

i meant turning and cornering abilities, i was going to go with Z h-tech springs, stock struts and stillen sways to see how it would handle, and if i didnt like it THEN i would get adjustable shocks for $700, but i didnt wanna blow that money if i could save a little.....

 

If you are referring to the 350z H Tech, the lowest price I've found online is calienteautomotive.com ($125). Please post site if anyone knows of a better/cheaper place...

I am interested to know the best place to get the SPC rear camber arm and tow bolts and the cusco A-arm as well as any comparable alternatives?

 

Posted this in another thread, but didn't get a response.

What happens when you go with springs that a stiffer in the front, but softer in the rear? I have the G35 H-Tech and after the install, the car seemed to handle better and the ride was a touch stiffer. Could I be crazy?

 

350z H techs

 

I got my SPC items on E-Bay. It was one of the store front type sites. It worked out great - Import Auto Performance, for the Cusco A-arms I went throught Bulletproof Automotive. Everything was backordered from Japan at the time so I went with them who beat the price I had.

I have had the combo on for a while now and love the response. I am going to upgrade the shocks this year to D-specs. It should give me the total performance I want and the Drop, even with winter is good.

 

So you couldn't get the alignment back to spec with the 350z H-Techs?

 

I was just outside the limits on the back. The fronts were a little farther. Part of my challenge was the offsets I choose. I did a 18x9 +18 front with 245/40/18 tires and 18x10 +22 rear with 275/40/18 tires. The aggressive offset I feel did not help.

This spring I am going to take out the shocks and replace them with D-specs. I want to go to a track day or two. When I do replace the shocks (BTW they are not worn out) I want go to a recommended tuner alignment shop I did not know about the first time around. I do know I liked the handling better being a little outside the specs. A lot more crisp and responsive without being able to break it loose as much.

 

For all of you saying

"GET THE 350Z H TECHS"

I have one question for you. Are any of you 05 drivers that replaced the sports springs with 327 and 415 F/R spring rates?

I want to know how the handling compares when you get the H-techs that sit 1" lower, increase the front spring rate and decrease the rear spring rate!

I hope what I typed made sense! hahahaha, it has been a long day
