i got megan coilover there pretty good ride but i bags on it

 

what do you mean by "bags on it"? do you mean drop it to the max? hows the ride and do they ride comfortably?

 

ride ok for daily but i have air bags on it i took out the spring and replace it with air bags

 

oh i c, but yeah im thinking of spending at least 1500 +-/200 now, i been looking at cusco zero2 coilovers and they seem good, wondering whats better, pillowball uppermounts or rubber uppermounts?

 

If your going to spend that much, then I'd recommend KW variant coilovers or silkroad rm/a8. Cuscos are good but they're like JIC, they blow kinda early. Another good brand is bilstein and their coilovers. You'll find more useful info on coilovers on my350z.

 

oh alright thanks

 

what version you recommend for KW?

 

Variant 2 would be around your price range. A person who should consult with is Sean at munkywurks. His number is in my sig. He's very helpful with the z/g community. He's the guy that you should see when getting your suspension installed and setup the right way. Tell'em 636Racer referred you.

 

oh okay ill keep that in mind, you know any other good coilovers that might be good too? i want to compare something and i've heard that HKS has some good coilovers too thats why

 

HKS is good but that's way out of your price range, from $1900 and up.

A setup I was contemplating for all around aggressive street driving and road course (when we had a track) was going to cost me under $1600. Tokico Dspec struts, Swift springs (Linear rates), Progress Tech swaybars, GTSpec strut bars. With that setup, your car could out handle a lot of G35/350Z with just a $1500 coilover setup. IMO, coil overs are great for people who run on the track and autox, not so much on the street. A lot of people with coilovers on their cars dont even know how to set their suspension up correctly, let alone know what to look for when fine tuning them. Those people are either buying them for the name and status, or know what theyre getting into. The majority out there are buying coilovers just for the name and status. Otherwise I wouldve seen a lot of the G35/350Z guys at the motoring events (but doesnt mean you need an aftermarket suspension setup to compete - it just helps).

You need to see how much performance you'll get out of them. If you're just going for looks, get some basic coilovers. But if you're into spirited driving and maybe thinking about doing some AutoX, maybe a set of coilovers will do. Otherwise, you're just wasting your money. But in the end, it's your money.

 

oh okay so since i'm just going to be using my car for daily driving around hawaii, would you say the KW Variant 2 would satisfy me for comfort ride quality and looks? or is there any other coilovers that are good below 1600 that you could consider so i save money? let me know, thanks for your help
