Probably a dumb question but can you use a complete 350Z strut in place of a V35 coupe set up?

Reason I ask is that I have a 2003 350GT on its way from Japan with TEIN adjustable suspension, and I need a standard set for registration and I know someone with a Z.

Yes you can. I'm running a complete set of Z suspension in my sedan (struts and springs). Coupes are identical.

no, that's a tein s-tech spring with tokico shocks.

Hi Spikey,

I upgraded my silver 300GT Sedan for a blue 350GT manual 6speed coupe - cannot say enough about how seriously happy I am :D

I have picked up the Tein s-tech's from 'Blitz_boy' (thanks man), now for the shocks... can you tell me the part number or info on your tokico shocks? Your drop looks exactly like what I'm after! Nice one!!

Also Spikey... could you tell me the size and offsets of your wheels? I'm looking at 19" wheels for my coupe and think your wheels offsets look perfect :laugh:

ps. I'm looking at 19" staggered front: 8.5" 40 offset and rear: 9.5" 45 offset

Those are very weak offsets for a coupe...more suited to sedans..you should take advantage of coupe guards as they can take most GTR offsets. ie +15, +20

Hay thanks for tip... I was thinking of spacers as I like the wheels (had picked them out for my 300GT Sedan - but sold it for the Coupe). Thinking of 20mm spacers front and rear - making them +20(8.5"), +25(9.5")... stock are +30 I think. But your saying +15, +20... these fill up the guards nicely I take it? Would I need any rolling with the staggered wheels? Like to fill the guards like pic of Spikey's ;)

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
