Beautiful Impul Coilovers
 
I am unsure if this is a repost, if so I am sorry. In the end these coilovers are just to beautiful not to post in my opinion.

Hmm external reservoir ftw - what do those run?

Are the rear damping (compression/ & rebound) adjustable from the bottom? How do they compare with Penske's brand of shock/dampers specs/price? Do the fronts have pillow ball mounts?

Price now!!!! :D

With all do respect they do look mighty fine, and considered them myself but for the price point your better off with suspension from Moton. No doubt, Motons.

Sweet coilovers. Good lord the exhaust prices on that site are astronomical. Almost Porschelike.

Exhaust prices on what site? 370ztune.com?

Sorry, if you wanted cheap exhausts, you should have gotten a Civic haha. The reason why they're so expensive is because some of them are made out of titanium, not stainless steel. Plus, each and every one has been specifically designed for a purpose. Some of them are engineered to be lighter than the competition. Some are designed for weight savings. Some are designed for maximum horsepower gain. Some are designed for purely sound/aesthetics. This R&D process isn't cheap.

There are still a bunch of exhausts that 370ztune sells that are pretty darn affordable. $1500 for an exhaust is pretty good.

Thank you Captain Obvious:tup: I know the reasons as I can read;) But the prices are shocking nontheless hence my "Good Lord" outburst. Its not for the feint of wallet. Full Powercraft exhaust would be close to 8k. Only for the most well heeled amounst us especially considering the performance to cost ratio. Id love for someone to bolt one of these systems up and dyno it vs the cheaper Stillen etc setup and see how much power difference there is. I would hope it would be substantial.

Your theory is very skewed, apples and oranges. Your initial reaction was more accurate, "Good Lord." That is the difference between owning a Stillen exhaust and a JDM exhaust... exclusivity, rarity, and power/sound combination. So if you hear one going down the street, or see one at a car meet/show it'll be the one that turns your head and keeps you looking. Not the exhaust that makes you say, "Oh, that guy is running a Stillen."

No money, No Honey!

I see you are a typical internet armchair psychologist now lol....You are reading way too much into what I wrote. Seems to be an internet passtime these days. Im not gonna play into it. You have a good day:hello:

CCCLXXZ 07-16-2009 12:48 PM

Youtube got old at work, and what else are forums for beside debating?

Thanks for the friendly fire, have a good day yourself!

^ I like this guy.

Also, I would get the motons over this any day. I think the motons are prettier too ;)

As far as exhausts go...the only reason they are so expensive is because there are IDIOTS out there willing to pay for them. There's no reason why they should be 8k, NONE. I know how much it costs to ship and make these things, its not 8k, its not even 4k...a FULL CONTAINER from Japan to LA costs around 2k to ship.

Also...youre not going to make more power with these than a stillen. Its all just hype and exclusivity.

to get this thread back on topic, those coilovers look SWEEETTT

Dee@Amplified 08-09-2009 04:30 AM

Wow those coilovers look pretty awesome especially with the external reservoirs. But a set of coils like that are for track use and racing. With external reservoirs im guessing that that system has to be a 2 or even 3 way adjustable coilover system. With that advanced of a system tuning coilovers like that is INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT and virtually impossible for a regular person to do, unless they understood a great deal of physics for the low speed and high speed rebound rates.

BUTTTT if someone were to pick up these and get them fine tuned by a professional, this would be ultimate...... Props to 370Z Tuned for offering some really high end product!

Hi Steven :hello:

Thanks for the kind words of support. I agree that these coilovers would be the ultimate suspension mod for a track junkie. Due to the insane price, I don't recommend them to anyone because that price is too difficult to justify for a majority of enthusiasts. In the end, an amazing piece that too my knowledge, is very difficult to acquire.
