For the coupes, how are the stock shocks holding up? And is it necessary to install camber arms for alignment? Thanks..

 

stock shocks holding up so far so good. I've been told they'll probably hold up for 1-2 years den you gotta switch them.

Depends how low you drop. with around 0.8" drop, you'll be at the edge of OEM spec. Any more, you should get camber arms for both front and rear.

 

I have only had my springs on for like 2 months but I have had no problems and my allignment is perfect. I have Espelir GT springs which is a mild drop... But it is HOT!!

 

im going to be this week,im gonna pick up me tein s tecs this afternoon,i hope the shocks work well with them and the car drives as smooth as it does now

 

I see. I'm getting the RS*R Ti2000 springs for coupe which gives a mild drop on my new 19s. Just don't wanna deal with all that work getting them aligned... Thanks for the replies guys.

 

I have been running Tein 350z H-techs with stock sport shocks on my sedan with no issues for about 5,000 miles. The rear camber is a tiny bit out of spec, but there is no need for camber arms. The 350z H-techs dropped the car around 1-1.2" in the front and back, handling is night and day from the OEM sport springs and I have had 0 problems.

 

I installed the tein s's on stock shocks with the stock 19" rays forged wheels. I never got an alignment,nor a camber kit and my tread wear is perfectly symmetrical in the rear. So i'm pleased to say the least.

 

A question to all......how is your ride quality compared to stock with your spring of choice and stock shocks?

Thanks in advance,
Mark

originally i tried this. but did not work out for me. im running D-Specs
and have loved the ride since. takes 500miles or so to really break them
in... feels very nice.

 

well i finally installed my tein s tecs,the drop is just sick! i love it im on stock shocks for now,and its actually not bad,feels almost the same...i can feel the road a bit more..but when im crusing its not bad at all
