The Z comes standard with a divorced spring/shock setup in the rear, so changing it to true rear coils may be bad. reason it may be bad is cause the car wasn't designed to have all the weight and load on that part of the car. Again he just said it as a thought and it did get me thinking could he be right? Only down side to not going with a true rear setup would be lack of camber adjust ability so that might suck. lets hear some of your thoughts!
I think that the HKS Hipermax only comes as a divorced setup only. I have them on my car and they are divorced just like the OEM style.
