What is going to be your first mod?

Ryephile, you want to do what companies like KW and Cusco do for you hehe. I would opt for a nice set of damper adjustable coilovers like the KW's to do some suspension tuning. In the end you wont be building the springs yourself, but buying them from a company like these so all your calculations would only go to choosing one or the other...

I definitely like your approach though, keep us updated on which path you take...

You're right, it's impractical to build your own homebrew coilover set unless you're buds with Truechoice et al. That said, all too often there is crap splattered on the market that hurts performance in the name of subjective "I got those, yo" modders. I love a good stance and a sexy exhaust note, but it must have quantifiable gains for it to be truly an upgrade. Like you said, the better suspension companies actually do their homework with good wisdom. I'll still want to know what I'm getting myself into, regardless!

At the moment, I just look forward to my first test drive of the new Z!
