Tein mono flex with EDFC pro 2. I am thinking its one of the best around. for 2.5k AUD

Check out Powertrix.

They are designed for the 370z by a Z owner. I have the street series and very happy with the ride and the quality. Charles can set them up with Swift spring for a little more.

AXMEA? has a detailed review HERE

Hey Brock. Congrats on your Nismo purchase. I recently bought a '15 Nismo myself. My ride was very harsh too. More so then I thought it should be. I soon found out why. After checking this forum (thanks everyone) I found 3 spring spacers in each of my front springs. A lot of guys are finding them on their Nismo Z's. If you havent checked you may want to. My ride was much improved after I removed them.

Im a really big fan of the HKS hypermax GT4 coilovers. Handles great with a much improved ride over stock. You can find good condition used sets on here for $1200. That's what I did and I think its a perfect setup for my street driven z.

I cant comment for other coilovers, but i really do love my hks hipermax4s too. For the street they are fantastic. I paid over 1600$ for mine, and did see a set for 1150$ on the marketplace. I am actually getting my suspension tuned next week, so ill report back afterwards.

The new 15/16 nismo's have 2 way shocks, found this out when I got my swifts on. If you throw swifts on it does soften up the ride but handling is better.

Thanks for the input guys. I'm going to go with Tein Flex coils along with the EDFC Active Pro electronic dampening.

I previously had a 2014 Jeep SRT which had a similar set up, different modes for tighter suspension, and that's exactly what Im looking for again. Ill report back once I pull the trigger. Trying to make it my winter project

I saw this too, checked and mine were already removed. I understand its supposed to be somewhat stiff being it is track oriented but driving around town, non-aggressively, I want something a little smoother.

Which is why Im going with Tein coilovers and EDFC Active pro electronic dampening. A soft setting for daily driving, along with a track style setting for when i want to have fun.

I am really interested in how the install goes and the quality of the EDFC system. Keep us updated!

Will do. I will not be doing the install, a local shop will most likely be doing it. Waiting to hear back from various ones to see who has done previous EDFC installs. I'll keep you guys posted :tup:

azza12311 11-21-2015 04:49 AM

I see you went my way mate. gotta tell me where you put the EDFC unit. I still have no I dear where to put mine haha. Also did you get the GPS unit as well.? helps when you doing high speed


tein flex coils are twin tubed . When the mono flex is well mono tube. how come you went just flex and not mono flex?

Im going to get the EDFC unit installed in front of the center consul, there is a spot with 3 blank switches. Removing the entire piece and mounting it in there. And yes i am going with the GPS option as well.

I don't believe Tein makes a mono flex coilover for the 370z, i could be wrong but it doesnt show it available on their website. You could be thinking of the mono sport, which is a more street/track style coilover. I do not track mine and don't plan to so the street flex will be plenty for me. A nice balance between street and performance.

OH yes I was thinking there as well. but mine has the heated seats. so I will be having to move the heated seat switches somewhere else..
heres a link to the monoflex teins TEIN Mono Flex Coilover - Fairlady Z34 - RHDJapan

That's true. you save around $300 from mono flex to just flex. I will be going mono since I will be doing a few track days. Also that's 300 AUD haha.
