Dude any way we can get in contact and just speak in the nismo platform. I just bought a z a couple of months back and I’m working on getting this z ready for the track
My take is that Opel should go right in Bobby Bolivia's category or runs and drives...I've never thought of an Opel and thought "Yeah, that's a good car". They are the Saturn of Germany lol
I got a 2015 370z Nismo and I am running the HKS GT coilovers and I felt the rear a hell of a lot softer than stock with the front feeling about the same. I'm definitely looking into the SP versions since they have 14k in the front and 16k in the rear. But they have are one way adjustable. The ones im lookining into now are the Neo Silvers 2 way with true independent set up with swift springs. Those are 14k front 10k rear. I dont really understand coilovers much but I know the HKS GT's are really comfortable just too soft for my liking. I see that your car looked really planted zig zapping around. The corner, whats your spring rates? I have SPL everything in the front. Lastly I also made a 10 row power steering cooler that costed me 50 bucks out of pocket and that worked wonders with fluid life. You should check it out.
research suspension frequency, also true style coilovers are stiffer than divorced style even with same spring rates, and if your coilovers aren’t rebuildable maybe get some BC coils i have them and love them and was able to switch out the springs to my liking
Great vid! The correct order is : lower, align w/ variables (add driver weight/other variables to vehicle), corner weight (with variables). Add different size wheel/tire combo and start over! Car looks great 👍🏽
My comment is a little late but awesome video!!! What are your thoughts/speculation on how the VR30DETT will hold up to extended track use? I worry about issues related to heat and cooling but I don’t have nearly as much experience/knowhow as you!
My reply is just as late but I don't expect there to be issues in this regard! I think, design-wise we'll see the standard formula of "add an oil cooler before you abuse it," though it would be nice if they address this improvement from the factory.
Excellent! I have seen 95%of all C8 videos, and this is one of the bet filmed, most creative, well written fun to listen to of them all. You should get a million views of this.
Imo they are the best OEM seats I've sat in to date. I'm 5'10" 170 and they're perfect for me, but I imagine they would be cramped for anyone more than say 6'0" 200 lbs.
Well done. It made me laugh. My wife puts up wife my handful of "girl friends" sitting in the garage. She does not have spending limits on shoes, and purses and other things us guys do not care about. It all balances out in the end. 30+ years of being married.
