Got the Ground Clearance

Ok, so i bought som Bilstien Shocks not for preformance, but for ride quality and well they were on sale or something.

Point is i fabricated some raisers which basically consists of two top plates and a 2" x 3" schedule 40 MS pipe wich gives me about 2 3/8" of lift. I placed them ontop of the newley assembled shock and spring and installed it. After a while of intensive Squeezing and compressing ai finally got the result, but when i did the left side i found that the entire OEM assebly was trashed, the only surviving piece was the steel plates.

So i now need

1. upper spring insulator2. boot3. Bump stop4. The rubber upper spring seat

So anyone knows wher to get these things, i checked in many places and none had in stock.

Why in the world would you raise your Z? The Z is a sports car. It's supposed to be low. If you want to go higher, get a Frontier.

If you are trying to make a 4x4 Z, were gonna vote you off the island . . .

Hello again Z owners, after lifting the front end of my 96 2+2 300ZX I realized what a big mistake I had made, there was way too much space between the front tire and the fender. Although there are many advantages of having a taller car, the overall Z look/stance gets sacrificed when doing so. I later decided to lower it once I completed my NA->TT swap, for which I bought a new front bumper. Needless to say it was a mistake lifting the Z and I am now returning to the "island".

All is forgiven, you may return to the island.

I'll just leave it at "glad you've come to your senses", and wish you luck going forward!
