      they were posted on z31.com a long while back (years), and if i remember correctly were 2kish for a pair + shipping to the states. If the price is lowered now, that would be nice, however you still can't choose your own coilovers, still have to use that company's shock/spring

        I would just opt to make my own custom coilovers like Jason's and Butters. I really like what this guy did his 8) custom strut coilovers. Look mid page for the pictures I'm talking about. They look like what Kennedy posted. Upon closer look at Kennedy's pictures that looks like exactly what was done to the front z31 struts. The rears are just any stock coilover that would fit the location height like an s13 rear coilover. Oh and I forgot to mention that arizonazcar.com also sells a cut and weld kit for the 240-280z which could be used on our front z31 struts I'm sure, linky here Arizonazcar.com coilovers

Found out one thing though. With better suspension one must get BIGGER tires. Even with race compound tires, 225 and 245 just will not do it on the track. They get too hot and start to show the greasy side of tires, but the tires would drift out very nice and just come right back as long as I stayed on the throttle.

                IMO: Suspension change to coilovers was well worth my time.
