What parts do I need? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

***enkei2k*** · 09-15-2008, 10:51 AM

Searched, to no avail. Found many different set ups and stuff, but none of what I'm looking for.

I have a BONE STOCK s14, except for an exhaust, planning on getting coils (either PBM or Stance) in the near future. Question is, aside from getting the coilovers, what other parts would I need to get/replace? control arms, bushings, alignment, camber plates, whatever etc...etc...not sure if I'm right or not, but if I just get the coils, won't the 'geometry' of the car be off and such? since it'll be lower and such.

like you guys all say, "Do it once, do it right, get coils", but I want to make sure that I'm doing everything right and get all the parts at one shot and not have to worry about bigger problems in the future. thanks

Click on S14 Chassis.
Click on Suspension.
Get everything but the lower A arms.
SLAM the car.
Let a professional shop set it up the arms for you.

Come back and thank me, and make sure you thank Kuah for providing you with the awesome parts.

thanks all for the fast responses, i knew i could count on zilvia for help. +1 time to get started, i'll be sure to thank Kuah as well.

*edit* just looked over the site. when you say:

"Get everything but the lower A arms."

i'm guessing you're referring to the Rear lower arms that go for 899 bucks a pop and the Front lower arms that go for 689?
