Slowpoke Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 You should get off ebay and do a little more research. "Best" performance and installation is totally subjective. Are you looking for a type of ride (track or street cruising)? Are you looking to get low? Do you want particular alignment adjustment capabilities? For installation, can you weld or are you looking for a close to "bolt on" solution? https://technotoytuning.com/nissan/280z http://www.jpngarage.com/240Z-early-260Z-BC-br-coilovers-1969-to-1974-BR-69-74-240Z.htm http://www.mckinneymotorsports.com/prod_240+260+280Z+parts http://www.arizonazcar.com/coil.html http://sakuragarage.com/products/datsun-suspension/ And the are many more options. Good luck. Quote Link to comment
EndStar Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 agree with slowpoke. i have ground control with 350-250 lbs springs. love them so far, but havent driven yet. i wouldnt recommend going over 300 lbs though. it all comes down to how much you are willing to spend. whats your budget?

lovemyjdm Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 I got the bc's courtesy of jpngarage.com and I love them! Very high quality and the bolt in top hats make for an easy installation. Highly recommend them Quote Link to comment
