Missouri, are you running a camber kit/rolled fenders with that set up? I think people should start adding that in to the description too. And I think Blue Dream Should get the s-Techs and pass down the H techs haha just sayin'

Question

Hey guys... I need some advice...

I want to tighten up the handling on my '06 sedan with the sport suspension, riding on OEM sport 18's. I find the rear end gets unsettled (wobbles) during quick transitions, so I'm thinking tougher sways would fix that. I also want a slight drop for cosmetic reasons. Note: I don't do any track work--I'm all-street, with about 80% highway miles.

I think the Hotchkis or Stillen will do the trick for sways, but what about the drop? 350Z springs? G coupe springs? Aftermarket?

If someone could recommend springs, as well as suppliers who will ship to Canada, I'd appreciate it (incl. Z/G stock springs... where the %^&$ would I get them from?)

Keep in mind, I don't want to sacrifice too much ride, because of all the time I spend on the highways.

Thanks!

Here she is stock... needing sways and a drop...

IMO sways are the single best mod for what you're looking for, zed, and a set of Z springs/shocks (or Z front, G coupe rear) from the Marketplace either here or on my350z/kijiji/Craisglist will give you that slight drop. Easy!

If I go with Z/GC springs only (keep my sport shocks) do I need to worry about camber?

No, the drop is mild so you'll be okay.

Just keep an eye pealed for leaks on your shocks. They will go bad within a year. Sooner if you drive them hard. You can put Z shocks on there, but I recomend the TOKICO d-Spec shocks.
