Welcome to NICo and congrats ont he Z!
You have lots of choices and it just depends on what you want. If you want a car that will be a street cruiser with moderately oversized wheels and tires then you can buy new inserts like the KYB GR2's and run stock springs, if you want the car a bit lower you can buy lowering springs form eibach, MSA, ST etc.. If however you want to tuck as much wheel and tire under the car as pissible and want to have adjustable camber then camber plates, sectioned strut housings with double adjustable inserts are the key. So please tell us a bit mroe abotu your plans for the car.
