Gonna weigh out some options, liking the er series and 510’s are also looking good

I think I’m going to go with the 16/14 combo but my mind changes back and forth. Main concern is I don’t want to induce understeer, and have a hotchkis up front
Inducing too much understeer isn't too easy to do. I run 1000lb/800lb (not exactly 18k/14k but close), and I have Hotchkis front and rear. I run my rear bar on the softest setting and the rear shocks cranked pretty far down (autocross setup). Even then there is plenty of room for oversteer left.

FWIW, I had Fortune Auto 510s on my last Z, and was quite satisfied for the price. The current owner just sent the dampers in for their first service, 5 years in, at a cost of $300.
On that car I ran only about 60% of the spring rates that I do now, but FA should be able to set it up however you like.
