Car: '93 300zx NA

Post

hey everyone, I'm new to nico and new to my Z. I've got a 93 NA 2+2 auto, and so far I love it. I'm not supposed to make it any faster for a couple of years, so I'm looking at suspension stuff right now. I've read about sway bars being one of the best things to do, but couldn't find prices for the suspension techniques setup anywhere. Where could I get that? Also, I was wondering what subframe spacers do and if they are worth getting(are they they the same as subframe collars?). and another quick question: how are z32's for touge? could they hang with 240's or are they just too heavy for that kind of driving? thanks in advance and sorry about the long questions. I have trouble finding answers on previous threads.

stillen sells the st sway bars. yes subframe spacers are the same as collars. i prefer the spacers because the collars can cut into the bushings. and the z32 2+2 is not the fastest car. heavy car with a weak auto. you should be neck and neck with stoch 240's

Modacar.com has a Suspension Techniques sway bar set (front and rear) for $270. Those are in my opinion the best sway bars. That is also one of the best suspension mods you can do as they reduce chassis roll and flex. I personally think a 2+2 N/A auto would beat a stock 240... simply because 222hp Vs. 155hp. Don't know if the weight of the 300zx would be so great as to keep it neck and neck with a 240. 300zx's are fast F***ing cars stock to begin with.
