Zeal coilovers rock !!!

by the way this is thatguy's 240sx which he will be dropping in the skyline engine soon

the suspension was put in by Titand19 in 2 hours and the drop looks very nice...ride feels stiff but not unbareable

For a car like that, that's way to do it!

btw, will he have enough space for the two huge twin turbo??? I've seen a Blue R34 up in Seattle WA car show, and under that massive hood of the R34, the engine took up almost the entire bay!!

There is plenty of room under taht hood. The engine is a 2.4 and a 2.6 with TT will fit with some minor modifications.

Gregshin: That guy will most likely give you a better response for not doing the SR20DET, but I don't think he is doing it because he wants to be different and feels that everyone and their mom has that engine in a 240.

Thatguy is not fucking around. His suspension used cause 1/2 the price of the car. The quality of the Zeals also blows the Teins out of the water.

I agree that Zeals are better than Teins, but in your opinion, how much better do you think it is in comparison? 30,40% better??

Because originally I was going to get Zeal for my CL, except when I spoke with a few people who had them said they are about 20% better than Tein's, therefore at that time, I just couldn't justify 20% better product for almost 100% more in cost.

I would like to hear your thoughts on the whole Tein Vs Zeal comparison. Dollar to Performance ratio.

Thanks!

i fthey cost 80% more, they should be at least 20% better. the cl-s is anything but a race car. so anything better is likely a waste of $.

Zeal Function V6 coilovers are like 2300 brand new, but i got a REALLY good deal, next thing for me to mod is probably going to be the wheels and brakes, because the stock 1 piston jobs suck asssss. I think i might go all zeal... a lot of dough, but their shit is quality man, quality. and sorry i didnt post all day, i was too busy getting slaved at work, unloading trucks when its hot out sucks man, i got baked...

the zeal suspension for the CL or TL is the BEST suspension there is.
It's better than the H&R coils I had in my VW, or the Bilstein H&R combo in my porsche...
