good choice, the Monoflex would ideally be the best choice in the range Tein has to offer for the 370z heres the reply from Tein:

The Zs are configured with a double wishbone set up front and
rear has a multi-link system.

This type of shock absorber is focused in its operation as it
only dampens. The arms control the geometry, which controls the
position of tyre contact. This means that camber adjustable top
mounts would have no effect and so are not sold as part of this
package on these types of cars.

MacPherson strut type dampers, such as Imprezas or S14 200SX on
the front, also are involved in steering and any changes to the
struts' angle, will affect the contact position of the tyre on
the ground.

Your coilover kit does come with top mounts. Looking under the
OE strut bar, you will see green anodised base plate. This is
the top mount assembly. But under the top nut, you will see
rubber bushing. This is usually a harder compound compared to OE
and better maintains the position and the focused operation of
the damper, to reward with improved feel whilst driving.
