3" of suspension travel is being generous, lol.


If you drastically change any car's suspension geometry to the point that it has a negative impact on performance you're likely to experience things like - excessive body roll, bouncy/stiff/easily upset/overall sketchy handling (all of those at once), and fucked up camber/toe curves.

The 240's front suspension design works in a way that at a certain point you no longer gain negative camber as the suspension compresses, but you gain positive camber - which from a fitment and performance aspect is not good, haha.

You should be able to google general stuff about suspension geometry and then read the thread listed above and kind of figure out what's going on.

Check out NissanRoadRacing.com as well. Very good suspension geometry information on there. Between there, a few books, and the internet I have attempted to teach this kind of crap to myself; since I'm a biologist by degree, a photographer by trade, and no where in there were there any engineering classes, haha!
