1969DATSUNMan Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 I am considering Coilovers from Ground Control susp for my Datsun has anyone used them on a 510? What type of modifications were needed? I have stock components. thanks for the help Quote Link to comment
Gensaiken Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 I have used their coilover set up on my 280ZX struts. They sell a kit that is set for that kind of set up. I believe they also have it for use on stock struts. The kits come with instructions and all the pieces needed to set it up based on which strut you are using. Quote Link to comment
Burabuda Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 i've used their stuff before. kinda pricey though. i'd get the generic stuff from ebay next time Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 What are you wanting to do.? I think its all overrated for a street car myself. I love my S/T springs and Konis. But I dont think S/T makes the springs anymore Just has more height/spring adjustability and brake fitting and wheel options Quote Link to comment

I tried using the cut springs I already had before my 280ZX swap and it was very rough. The coil overs smoothed it out. I'll likely never adjust my suspension but its nice to have there incase I ever want to. Quote Link to comment
1969DATSUNMan Posted July 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 I am wanting to lower the front end a bit and still have a good ride on the street but eventually I want it set it up for Autocross :) Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 here is my car with ground controll in the front but dont forget to get the t3 adjustable tension control rods so you dont have to worry about the stock ones braking when you slam it Quote Link to comment
