H&R and Swift seem to be the most popular. I like the H&R because it is the lowest drop you can get, without getting coilovers. I have 15mm spacers on the front with 20mm on the back, again that is the most common used here on the forum. I think the extra 5mm on the front would look good and fit fine.

20mm Spacers work fine on all 4 with stock wheels/tires. Looks good and clean. It's how the Z's wheelbase should come from the factory...

I have the H&R but from what I have read the Sprint springs are better if you are going to track your car. The drop is almost the same.

My wheels should be in around Aug. 15. Then just a couple more weeks after that for my exhaust and LTH!

I don't mind at all. I just have to get wife approval before I commit. There is a possibility I could help you with it the morning of the 13th, as well. But I will let you know.

Everyone check out this thread. Could be some potential for us to hang out with some other Z owners.

Calling all sc z car owners!

Hey Matthew were you able to get your exhaust issue taken care of? If so how does it sound now..

ClemsonWill · 08-05-2011, 08:57 AM

My exhaust has started to rattle a tiny bit the last few days. I think my bolts have come loose again, this time with Locktite. I guess I will be climbing under there when I switch out the wheels.

No still a rattle coming from somewhere! I need to get it on a lift and do some tweaking. But it does sound really good other than that.

Also the 02 extenders that I bought and put on my HFC are not installed I think the guy from the shop took them off. No CEL so far but I need to go get them.

Hey guys. I talked to Z1 and they are willing to do a small group buy on their oil coolers. Is anyone else seriously interested within the next couple of months?
