T3 Adjustable Coilovers ?

[260ZMELB]

Hi, im new i just joined up. Would love some advice as i am thinking about lowering my 75  260z. 

 

At the moment it has stock suspension. I was on the technotoytuning website and they offer a bolt on set of adjustable coilovers. 

 

This way i get to save my original set and have these replace them. 

 

$3,405 AUD by the time it comes to my door. 

 

Can anyone think of a cheaper or better idea? Please help as i am just getting into the Z game. 

 

THANKYOU!

I'd speak with a local specialist like Stewart Wilkins.

He's helped build many successful rally and race cars.

 

Importing stuff is expensive, not only because of size/weight, but also because of import duties on anything over $1000 AUD.

If your only goal is to lower your Z, then just get some lower Kings springs: $300 for all 4.
They will lower your Z by 30mm - any more than this & you'll run into geometry issues.

For that price I would also be asking MCA suspension to make you a bespoke set.

+1 for King Springs coupled with a decent set of shocks.  Unless you want to fit wheels wider than 7 inch then the standard struts are fine.

mate i would go for them, best thing i ever done for mine, i shopped around heaps in australia to put a set of coilovers they r gonna cost u more by the time u buy them and cut them and fabricate and all the headache, these just bolt on and u can lower ur car as much as u want and raise it as mush as u want

MCA is a no brainier on this one.

Not bespoke, I know of at least a dozen cars now with MCA coil overs fitted.

Another +1 for King springs if you just want to lower your ride a bit.
