Seeking counsel - refreshing suspension:

My current goal is to get another "quality" 2 years out of this refresh. (I’m just enjoying it so much that I don’t want to have to trade it out yet.)

I've elected to go with a set of Nismo springs (lightly used) from a member, along with my Eibach sways, new SPL end-links, new Stillen rotors/pads, new Michelin PSS.

Now looking for a reasonable set of dampers - which is frustratingly slim pickings.

from driving different cars, the Z's suspension has a tendency to wander around over rougher roads (toe changes as suspension compresses). good way to minimize is by controlling the damping by stiffening it up.. i'd just use stock springs in this case.
