Ill help it out, trying to decide between springs or coil's. Not tracking it so probaly spring's and shocks and struts also. Ordering a oil cooler kit from Oil Cooler Kits - Standard Oil Cooler Kit cost is $179 24 row and 20mm thermostatic plate. Any info on this kit?

Get the coils! Im getting a set myself in spring. A buddy of mine had springs and when he switched to coils he said it was well worth it. How low do you plan to go?

I think we've messaged about the coils/springs dilema. If you're planning to do springs AND struts, why not just coils as a full kit?

Also, I would say 85-90% of those that go with springs, kick themself for not going coils. The flexibility of lowering it juuuuust to where you want it is the key. Springs, you'll always find yourself 2nd glancing at your car thinking, "man i wish I could ...(adjust)"

Also you can adjust the dampening to your likes on most coils.

I run the koni yellow adjustable shocks with tein springs. They do the job but like others said can't adjust height but if you can find a hell of a deal on a new setup like I did with my konis then get it. Never buy used. Ill eventially go full coilover sometime but right now I'm happy with what I have. The setup I would get after this one is the tanabe sustec pro 7 with the teas

Sorry to post a link to another vendor Lance(for reference for everyone else do not buy from these guys, worst service ever. You'll find lots of complaints about them)

Tanabe Sustec Pro SEVEN Coilovers 350Z: <font color="#ccoooo">FREE SHIPPING</font>
with the teas Tanabe TEAS <font color="#ccoooo">FREE SHIPPING</font>
BTW not interested right now so no need for a quote have other issues to address first.
