Springs

nvmy240z · January 30th, 2007, 01:51 PM

Does anyone have the TEIN lowering springs on their car?
Drop-- 2.5" in front-- 2.3" in the rear
spring rate --537 in front and 269 in the rear

Is this going to make my car to low etc.

Wow! They completely ignored your question. LOL I've never tried those springs, so I can't comment on thier quality. As far as them making your car too low, I guess it all depends on what look you are going for. I live in NYS so I would never lower my car that low. It's the pot hole capital of the world up here. If you have long tube headers you may think twice about lowering your car that much. Long tubes can make some exhaust systems occasionally scrape on lowered cars. Also know with those springs your are going to feel every crack, pebble and bump in the road.

Hold on! I'm looking at you sign on name. Do you even has a Stang? If you do why on earth would you use a dumb ass name like that here?

maybe that's why no one answered.

Could be.

Sheet, I'd envy a nice 240 Z. A friend of mine got one when he turned 14 or 15. Him and his dad restored it. Silver car with a black interior. It wasn't fast even then but an oh-so-schweet ride.

Back when, that was a hot car to drop a SBC in and they ran like crazy.

neckbonekat · February 2nd, 2007, 09:25 PM

No thanks! :wink

Timber · February 3rd, 2007, 12:11 AM

Gotta be kidding! No respect for a '72 240 Z?

AtxStang · February 3rd, 2007, 01:59 AM

Whoa! I didn't say I had no respect for the car. I admit it's not a car I hold in high regaurd. I'm just saying it's not for me.

Nice video! I thought he was gonna run into on coming traffic

AtxStang · February 3rd, 2007, 08:47 PM

I don't really like the Z's but that one is AWESOME.

RyanGT · February 3rd, 2007, 08:58 PM

i have a 280zx speaking of z's. Fun car! But the stang is more fun i do have to say.... but the v8 z's are badass.

Timber · February 3rd, 2007, 09:12 PM

About.........15 years ago??? - has it been that long???

I had a guy build a 350 for me. I'd go by his shop to check the progress but I'd always end up drooling over his car more than mine. He'd built a drag motor (350 Chevy) and dropped it in a 240Z. Back then it was common and made for an especially vicious combination. I saw one once that had a 427 in it. Approaching AC Cobra territory...
