Z32 front Suspension swap?


  • Z32 front Suspension swap?

    OK so im browsing trying to find the z32 front suspension setup and i cant find any info
    Is it similar to the z31?
    I have an idea about lowering our cars,instead of having to convert to coilovers.
    im sure u can use an adjustable spring perch for the rear
    im still thinking of something for the front suspension
    somthing like this:

    Z32 is double wishbone suspension in front.
    Z31 is strut suspension in front.

    It would require re-engineering the front Z31 shock towers and frame to accept the Z32 parts.

    Yep, we have a couple people running a similar collar setup. However, with the available equipment nowdays, I can't see it being worth it.
