Hey guys, Ok, I'm getting closer to my 5 lug conversion, I'm just wondering what suspension setup I should use.

Will the 300zx rear coilovers work on a 240sx rear that has the 300zx rear aluminum spindle? Has anyone tried this?

This is an 89 240sx coupe, in case that matters. Already has 300zx rear calipers, ebrake. Will have 300zx rear spindle + hub.

My other option is to get a coilover that has exchangeable shock mounts (found a couple ones, but prices are not "really" in my range - I'd rather put that toward the wheels).

As a reference for people who wanted to know which ones:

1) JIC FLT-A2 - think that was the sport compact car2) Zeal coilovers - nissan performance mag?3) ksport coilovers - ksport - not sure how well the coilover bottoms mount up, but they say it does

W/ all 3, of course, you have to pay extra for the extra bottom mounts.

In the worse case, I will just not use the aluminum upright. But if I'm going to finish it, might as well finish it all the way.

Thanks everyone.

KTS - from SPL - is another choice.and it ships with Z32 rears if you specify. or 100bux if you want just the Z32 mount.Thats the option that I am going to go with.
