Stance GR+ Coilovers

Since Stance has pillow mount and camber adjustment, is it necessary to buy front camber if you have Stance coils?

Stance coils do not have camber adjustment plates. You will still need camber kits.

Are you sure? According to their site they do. I thought ours and the z34s were the same.

How do you feel about your stance? Have you had or driven in anything other than Stance to compare to? I am almost locked into Tanabe but still indecisive on whether I want/need damper adjustment.

if all your looking for is a good drop and a stock like ride the tanabes are the way to go however if you want to be able to switch between soft comfy daily driving and then spirited driving u should get something adjustable

I totally agree with G37some. This is my first set of coils. Previously had eibach pro kit. Difference is night and day. I can take corners and on ramps much faster and less body roll.

Sorry to bring back this thread. I am currently in the market for coilovers and Stance is on the list of the possible options. How is the overall quality of the coilovers? Any issues such as struts hitting the A arms? Clunking or other noises? Any leaks? It would be helpful to know how many miles you put on your Stance coils and to get some overall feedback on them.

Thanks in advance!

Stance are pretty good, a friend of mine runs them. They are definitely a step up above the BC Coil-overs.

I had mine for like 2k and loved them. I was slammed and it was perfect. I know v.b. had them for like 10k. They use oem I had twin flex before and now have meg racing. I actually like the meg racing.

Stance can be purchased for under $1,200 shipped from a vendor which seems like a very reasonable price for decent coils. Tanabe's are well under a grand. But my first choice was the KW V3's. However I can't justify the huge price tag since my car is just a DD and won't be seeing any track time. I feel like I won't be touching much of the damping adjustments once I have my setup dialed in.

Can't make up my mind dammit! Tanabe, Stance, or KW's?????? Sheesh..

Stance, best of both worlds.

I have adjustable dampeners, and when I know I'm going to be really on it, I'll quick adjust the shocks, takes a minute to do, huge difference.
