The reason that you are getting the "floaty" feeling is because of the shock bound and rebound rates aren't paired or designed to work with the spring that you have. When you do get the kw3's you can adjust the valving to where it eliminates it. But on the other hand when you start to adjust it to be a little stiffer, your handling will change a lot. Just a fyi imho, im lookin to get the stance coilover kit here in the near future.

That's why I've decided to go with the Koni Yellows based on the reports from the guys that have them paired with the swifts.

When you adjust em again, let me know where you get em set, since we'll have the same suspension setup springs/shocks combo.

That is funny you say that because all of our customers that we install koni's on seem to just keep their settings the same!

I bought adjustables for a reason:tup:

:tiphat:

how's the ride after several thousand miles? i still have mine sitting in a box, waiting to get some free time to install them.

No firmer than stock. Just lower and handles better.

Nissan truly developed some fantastic dampening for the Z. I've never driven a sports car that rides this compliantly, being this low. There are cars with bigger wheel gaps that are much stiffer over every bump - the 370Z is simply triumphant in that regard. That's why I love this car so much.

The swifts ride even better with 2013 euro-tuned shocks Nissan is providing with the 2013 model. Much better ride than Konica swift combo. And the twistes are awesome.

Hmmm....

:icon14:

Hummnnn.....I can say, that I have driven both setups. Can you ? :icon18:

You did not let me drive your car last time you were here. Whose did you drive with Koni/Swift? Are you cheating on me?????

What do you mean by 'better'? You can adjust the Koni's, can you adjust the euro-tuned shocks?

I'm sure you can make them ride the same, but it all depends on how you end up feeling the car. I like the fact that the shocks can be adjusted. Cost me $250 over the euro-tuned price.

You did not let me drive yours the last two times I was over at your house......hurt. A buddy of mines friend was visiting from out of town, not on the forum. Setup was one full turn the fronts and three clicks up from soft on the rear. They rode just like my 350z setup I had, stiff for daily driving, can you say where's the nearest chiropractor (for this old man). Like I said in my previous post it's a personal opinion and preference, me wanting a smooth daily drive.

It felt like the rear was trying to keep in tune with the front. Maybe the setup was off. Again guys not to deter anyone getting the Konica/swift setup...it was just not for me. Like I said before they ride a bit stiffer and are better suited for track use.

Why would I want them to be adjustable? The combo with spring rate and valving of the euro tuned are a perfect match. Any more compression on the shock would just ruin the ride. Problem with Konica and has always been a gripe is that their shock is only setup for compression and no rebound. If I were to pay the extra $250 for them I would want rebound also. Take a look at my previous post a few pages back. I give my opinion and it is just one persons opinion and may not be what everyone else is looking for a performance suspension setup. My apologies if I was vague with my statement of "better". I am sure their are a lot of happy members with the Konica/swift setup, just not me.

Hmm....decisions...decisions now. Do I go with the Koni's....or the 2013 Euro-Tuned shocks...

I smell a vote coming on...
