That is where I picked up my Stance GR+ coils and my SPC front and rear camber arms from.

They seemed like they knew what was going on as far as parts go and seemed interested in my 370 as to what was done to it, nice peple.


Just bust out the skinny jeans when you go to fit in lol......

Boost is boost, what matters is the quality of the tune you get, and the duration of peak boost. 9psi is the norm for VQ motors which seems to be the choice of most not wanting to pop their motor and having to build an engine.

I don't know really anything about suspension stuff. I was looking at the swift spec r springs. What else would I need to do or get done to make it right with them??

Everyone is different. Some Zs needed nothing. Some needed toe bolts, camber arms, etc.

I'll be taking mine for an alignment in the next week or two. I gambled by just installing springs. We'll see where I come in and go from there.
