Yep, I have an X, exactly why I came into this thread

So you recommend either z or coupe springs in the front and revised ones in the back? Sorry if I may not be understanding you correctly.

If so...should I just get them on eBay or is there a specific dealer that you recommend?

Everyone suggest to run unrevised z springs in front and spring from a 03-04 coupe in the rear. Then from what I have read you would want to get some 350z revised shocks for the rear so it wont be as bouncy. As where to get them. The marketplace here or 350z.com Those 2 would be the best bet. Just notice you are in new york. Talk to Seddon the guy with the Granite Fire X. He might have some spring to sale you unless he sold his already.

Hey guys, there was a guy in the 07 forum that just go coilover from this company http://www.attackracingusa.com Their corp. office is in Kirkland, Wa. That is 10 mins from me. I contact them but they didnt answer. I notice one of the dealer had the same addy. I contact them. Asked them about making a set for us. They said it might take a couple of months and told me to bring my car in. It also says on their site that if there are enough demand for the vehicle in question they would start R&D and release to public. If you guys want to do this let me know, and I will show them this thread and see if I can get this rolling.

Ok guys I just talked to the guy and I need more people interested in this coilover. I need atleast 8-10 people. If you are down for this, we can make it happen. You guys keep complaining that we need a coilover for our cars and I have a guy that is willing to help us on this. As for the pricing I am not sure as of yet. But I will email this thread link and maybe he can answer some question. So let get this list going.

Do you guys understand how coilovers work. They allow you to adjust ride height. So you can drop as low as you want, and they are adjustable.

Um this thread is for the sedan awd model, so you might want to post your question in the coupe section. Thanks and Garyv01 sorry if I came alittle harsh on my answer. I just am excited that some company is willing to help out on our suspension problem.

Nah it's cool man...it would be a great thing if some company starts producing coilovers for the X...because springs just wont cut it for me

My only concern with the coilover is that the spring rates be suited for a sport/luxury ride vs. Tein full Sport/Stiff ride.

If and when we get the requisite number of interested members can this be addressed and communicated to the coilover company? Thanks to FlyingLumpia for starting this, I hope it becomes a reality.
