suspension comparison...

ok so i'm looking to upgrade basically everything on my z31 turbo and i'm curious what others have and what they prefer as far as springs, coilovers, struts and so forth... possibly looking towards tokico illumia's and a spring that won't lower more than 1 inch preferable less or none at all but still stiffen. any ideas? lol thx

how much you willing to spend? you plan to splur out out for new bushings? http://www.88hybrid.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4319 You need new bushings go to http://www.z31parts.com/polyparts.html.

most bang for your buck is poly bushings, new tie rod ends and balljoints. That will get you going where you point it and stop wandering the road like a drunk. Beyond that most any decent shocks will give you improvement. after you get that and see how it drives you can decide on springs.
