Rear True Coilover Options?

Looked around but came up empty on what options we have for coilovers that are true coilovers in the rear. Any help would be appreciated.

Theres a few in there. i think starting price on a true coilover set up is $3000. also ive heard conflicting info on using them since our cars wernt designed for them. more info from the pros in here would be great.

I've been really really happy with my JRZ RS1s. My only complaint is that I think the front springs are too short. You really get what you pay for. I'll let you take 'er for a spin some time if you want to come up to Detroit (and you can reach the pedals : )

I've been thinking about selling them and going back to the stock suspension since I am not going to track my 370 anymore.

Actually been looking at the RS and RS Pros since they're both dual adjustable.

Let me know what you're selling off your 370 since I might be interested and could just pick it since I'm local (kind of).

Stance is the way to go. I have the GR true type with several track days and they are truly wonderful. I will buy again or rebuild them in time. But if you call Stance they will make you anything you want. They are nice guys. That's what I'm going to do in time. Custom springs rates with a dual adjustable compression/ rebound unlike the GR's I have now.

Are you wanting "street coilovers" or true race style coilovers like Moton, Penske and so forth?

At this point something in between. Was looking at the JRZ RS Pro but it will probably a little while before I pull the trigger on this mod. Currently the Z is just used for occasional street duty and AutoX (ASP class). The one issue I have is I can't lower the car too much as I have a crappy entry to my driveway and would rub if I drop it too much.

I love JRZ's also. But I feel there over rated.

Such as what they cost. Don't get me too wrong. There ABSOLUTLY great. I just choose to have some custom build that more than would do for anyone here for half the cost.

The best car is the the driver.
