ariascarlos1990 Posted January 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 Ok so I have a question. I want to keep the ride height I'm at do you guys think I'm going to need to shorten my ZX struts? This is what I am at now, I have stock struts with cut springs. I have no suspension. :lol: 15x7 0 offset. 60 series tires. Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 zx struts only lower your car a inch so you will gain a inch there Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Here is where I am sitting with ZX struts, stock 510 springs, lowered as much as the springs will let me: This is what I mean by as much as the spring will let me. Basically you will be fine. You will gain some travel since the strut tubes are shorter than 510. Quote Link to comment
ariascarlos1990 Posted January 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Thanks. I still don't know if want to shorten them or not I want lots of travel. Do you think shortening them to fit MR2 inserts is to much? I will be running 7 inch springs on my coilovers. Quote Link to comment
philcas1987 Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 shorten to rabbit insert. Shorter than zx but taller than mr2 Quote Link to comment
ariascarlos1990 Posted January 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Ok now if I do that are the thread pitches the same as the MR2 inserts? Because T3 told me to run Tokico Illumina BZ3125's and sent me the nuts for those with my camber plates. Quote Link to comment
philcas1987 Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 might be different. Look at indys build thread the highest setting is pretty low on mr2s. No sweat slam it! Quote Link to comment
The Dat-side Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 It's a bad pic but here's where I'm at with 16x7 +38 and 25mm spacer. The struts are 280zx shortened to fit MR2 inserts the springs are cut 510. Tires are 205/40. I got coilovers, just waiting on correct offset wheels and tires. Offset IS everything. And pretty sure MR2 threads are different that ZX if that's what the PN is. Quote Link to comment
philcas1987 Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 depends on the mr2 inserts you use lol. Carlos the info is out there Quote Link to comment

The Dat-side Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 And my crossmember is ~5" from the ground. Shorter struts are worth it when you jack the car up. Like zero wheel drop. Quote Link to comment
ariascarlos1990 Posted January 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Fuck it I'm just going to order the Tokico illumina 5-way BZ3125's. Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 buy the mr2 insert and cut your struts to fit then your car will have travel. It's not rocket science. Quote Link to comment
ariascarlos1990 Posted January 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 buy the mr2 insert and cut your struts to fit then your car will have travel. It's not rocket science. Well duh! I know this.... I don't want my coils to be turned all the way up for the ride height I want. Quote Link to comment

The Dat-side Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 I'm not usually a fan of red 510s but I'm liking yours. And it's one of my favorite goons too. Watch out Jun. What's with all the progress lately? I'm jealous. Keep it up. Quote Link to comment
