For the 350Z, there are actually quite a few who are fond of the BC coilovers at that price-point. Brand isn't everything, but I'd prefer to spend a bit more for a different set.

Always thought this was a good read. Doesn't speak highly of many JDM brands though DGs Autocross Secrets aka Autocross to Win

Cool. I like the location of the adjustment knob on the rear struts.

Does anyone know how much Central 20's products usually cost?

Well here's their final gear ratio Central 20 and some other parts. I don't think US dealers bring all of their products but I am pretty sure you can request them if you have the $$$.

I think I'm going to go with Stance, per my sister's boyfriend's recommendation.

Wow... Parts aren't cheap from them... Final gears for my TA were like $275. Central is more than double that.

The Central 20 final drive for the 350Z was actually decently priced compared to other brands.

For the 370Z, I don't think it's worth upgrading to 3.9 gears. The MT 370Z comes stock with a 3.7 final drive, so unless you make the jump to 4.10s, I don't think it's worth it. 4.10s will offer a good acceleration bump, but I don't like 4.10s for a daily driven car.

Some Central 20 BBK to go along with it...
