I've recently been given some s14a Tein rear coilovers and for a giggle i fitted them to the z31 to see how high it makes it .... Its about 3 inchs to high atm ,
Now just because i can and they were free i was gonna see how easy it would be to fit them , I have one of two choices
First i can cut out a section on the bottom mount and weld on 3 inch extension to make it mount lower therefore making the car lower , But then the ground clearance will only be around 5 inchs at that point . And i dont know what kind of handling this will cause
Second i could try cutting the top mount of the back of the suspension and weldeding it higher . I have seen this done before but what kind of guage would you need , How much strength is needed there .
Anybody tried anything like this before ?
