Black Friday on JRZ?

GeauxTigers1 · 11-28-2019, 04:05 AM

Might be a stupid question. Lol idk if they ever go on sale but looking for the JRZ RS PRO coilovers. Any sponsors on here or anyone with recommendations on where to buy? Thanks guys!

You are planning on some track time? Corner 3 Motorsports is where I purchased my JRZ coilovers for my 08 350Z when I had it. I found they are simply amazing coilovers to run at the track if they are within your budget. My times actually improved with the JRZ coilovers. The Fortune Auto 500 coilovers are very nice quality coilovers as well and they are rebuildable.

Don’t know if the rate and valving is what you need, but it’s worth a look

The biggest thing is to find someone who can help you setup the car properly. Hotrodz may know a few folks in your area that can help with this. They should also be able to hook you up with your JRZ's or whatever coilover you decide to use.

Those are tempting.

I keep just hearing amazing things about JRZ. Whereas not much about AST. Thinking I'm going to have to the JRZ route :/

Awesome man thanks for the heads up. However I really have my mind set on JRZ and AST. It was frustrating enough to narrow it down to them, I don't wanna go down that rabbit hole again. lol

Hotrodz is my boy!! I'll absolutely be discussing with him as well

Spooler · 11-28-2019, 06:13 PM

Penske's are one of the best. AST or JRZ has nothing on them. The problem with Penske's is finding someone who can set them up for the 370z. Sounds like this guy did just that. He found someone who built him what he wanted. They are setup real stiff due to autocrossing. That's what he was doing. Not sure how they would do on the street. On the track they would be awesome. If you are set on JRZ, keep on looking. I am sure Hotrodz knows the right people to get you in touch with.

This^^^^^^^. Penske's are the gold standard for dampers. Between Penske, JRZ, and AST, I'd go with Penske every day of the week. Only reason I have AST instead of Penske's on my car is I could find someone to work with within the time frame I needed.

The spring rates of those used Penske's are right where you'd want them for performance driving. They'll be a little stiff on the street but nothing that's too hateful to drive. With the Penske valving, they probably actually drive rather well.

You are not helping me. LMAO...… I have wanted a set for a long time. I need to spend my money elsewhere.

cv129 · 11-28-2019, 08:01 PM

Can’t believe that set of Penske is still unsold. $3k is at least $1.5 to 2k below what double adjustable command at this level.

Glad to help others make bad financial decisions any day of the week. Good luck with your purchase.

I've never seen JRZ's on sale.

Forgive my ignorance (happens often) but where do you find the info on these? Would love to read up about them but seems there’s pretty limited info and on their site, the Z setup isn’t an option. Personally when you first mentioned these, I felt they weren’t at the same level as JRZ simply bc that’s all anyone talks about. Lol any idea what theses typically cost or where i could read more into them?

Right at 7k.... These were one off's that were custom made. No where to buy them unless a suspension guy built them. That is why they are so rare. Nobody talks about them because they are very expensive if you can find someone to build you a set.
