92' 240SX Suspension setup?

sidewaysS13 · 01-08-2005, 03:10 AM

I am interested in doing road course this spring/summer, I was wondering what would be a good spring, shock/strut combo for a 92' 240SX Coupe. Also how hard is it to a 300zx brake conversion?

KYB Gas struts are great my friend has them on his S14. I would go with some good springs like Eibach or RS*R. Make sure you get a performance spring and not a lowering 'dress up' spring.

Brake conversion is EASY, it bolts right up... as long as you have a 5-lug conversion too. You should also get the master cylindar to get the propper fluid movement.

Save your money for a full coilover set-up as opposed to a spring & shock combo.

If you're gonna do your suspension, do it right the first time.

Since you asked for a spring/strut combo, I will respect your wishes.

RSR Race springs plus KYB AGXs.

MUFN is right. The brake conversion is straightforward, and the master cylinder is extremely highly recommended.

Don't forget that if you don't upgrade to grippier tires, there's practically no point in having bigger brakes.
