skipz Posted May 16, 2011 Posted May 16, 2011 I'm about to purchase new springs and have noticed a discrepancy between some of my manuals. Can someone please confirm for me the stock front and rear spring diameter for a 240z. I have 2 of 3 service manuals stating 110mm, whereas one of those manuals and my actual springs are 100mm. Also, if possible, can someone please confirm that the low King springs are 100mm in diameter. Thanks all. Quote
DAZDA Posted May 16, 2011 Posted May 16, 2011 Skipz, Just be careful about which Diameter you (or the manuals) are referring to, Outside Diameter (OD), Inside Diameter (ID), or the diameter of the wire axis. For example, if the OD is the fixed diameter, a thicker spring wire will result in a smaller ID... Anyway, the King Springs ‘Low’ for a 240Z seemed to fit fine on a set of standard struts (as they should). A good replacement for the standard springs, being a reasonable compromise of improved handling while not too harsh for the street. A bit too soft for serious track work, in my view. Quote
