09 Coupe Sport / FrontEnd Rebuild Time!
09 Coupe Sport / FrontEnd Rebuild Time!
Looks like I need new balljoints, so new control arms it is. I'm getting the Mevotech Arms from Rock Auto, and a local club member is hooking me up with some Swaybar links saved from a Nismo 370Z (they are worn as well).
I'm throwing a brand new set of tires on the car all around (275/35/19 in Rear, 245/40/19 in front) on the stock 09 Sport Wheels. I think since I'm doing all this work, why not put a new set of upper arms in while the car is apart, to guarantee a super tight front end.
I'm looking at the Z1 arms, particularly due to the fact of the greasable bushings I can hit at every oil change. Anyone else have any other suggestions?
I' can't wait to see how this car drives. I'm thinking of doing struts too. I'm on the fence about lowering it, any suggestions would be appreciated.
I know I post alot, but the fact of the matter is I trust this community, and I'm looking to make this car an ultimate street/weekend road course warrior car 3-4 times a year.
Thanks again for any suggestions!

Guessing you have quite a few miles on your project G. I'd suggest you consider changing out your shocks for some quality dampers from Koni or Bilstein. Also, this is the time to get a set of stiffer swaybars and upgrade brakes before you head to the track.
Car has 147k. Pretty sure I'm going to do lowers all around, Z1 Kit all around for my alignment adjustment, and a set of BC Coilovers. Along with some new rotors and pads. Still trying to decide on swaybars.
