    I'm guessing you mean top end of off the shelf [barely] streetable kits not external tank race suspension?
    Don't forget Tein do better stuff too like mono-flex etc. The main kits I'm aware of that are popular for the Z are powertrix though, and with the current exchange rate they're pretty pricey (well over $2k landed). They do "Group Buy" sales now and then but still pricey.

    I'm looking for something road/track and have been thinking about getting in touch with MCA to see if we could get the GTR units they make modified to suit the Z, their usual prices range from $1500 to $3k depending on how serious you are.

    Tektrader was selling some custom racecar ones from MCA a year or two back, might be able to steal his specs.

    Bilsteins > Ohlins > KW > Aragosta

    Except Bilstein and KW don't do base height adjustable coilovers for the Z32, only spring perch adjustment, therefore

    Ohlins > Aragosta

    The Jap Aragosta coilovers use Ohlin shock hardware.

    Dude if you're going custom hands down talk to Heasmans here in Sydney. They're Bilstein Australia and build custom bilsteins for race cars using all German hardware. Ball park 6 k though.

    More or less all the WTAC cars go through heasmans for atleast their track corner weighting and alignment before hitting the tarmac. They're the place to go.
    Interesting, thank you! Good bit of info there
