Yah, why I want to try the 240 spindle method. I can get both from Pull A Part for $40.Originally Posted by simontibbett
That might be my last route if the other sway bars don't work. On the J30 the sway bars link up to the strut and on the 240s they link to the lower control arm which I already have the hole for on mine. The J30 front sway bar is also weak sauce and very flexible.
at this point you might be spending more time and money into the car than it's worth, you would prob be better off selling it getting a better platform. But more power to you.
That's no fun. It's a lot cooler to have something unique and have to think of new ideas and try things out versus just going with the flow.
right now its looking to be about $500 total for tunable front suspension up front. i cant adjust my camber right now with the lowering springs unless i get camber plates.
thats my whole motive. who all sees J30s that are modded to the extreme like mine?
ill see them with wheels and tint but have yet to see one with a manual transmission and custom suspension. the infiniti j30 forums on nicoclub are more like "how do i do this?" or "my car is making this sound, what could be wrong?" type of forums. there are only a handful of us that actually modify our cars performance wise.
im having fun with it!
Why? Is it maxed out?
already quoted it once lol but ive heard that from many people and dont really care. i dropped about $1600 total (including rental car) for my manual swap and it was worth it. it is a whole different car now and a much more fun driving experience. the douche at Mr. Transmission gave me a quick estimate of $2500 to either fix trans or put a reman one in. i said fuck that and told him i was considering a manual swap and he pretty much called me an idiot. still need to visit them with the manual trans
got this car for $6200 almost 5 yrs ago and it is still running great. 210bhp from factory and im putting down 194rwhp with 141k on the motor. i beat on it hard daily and thats why my transmission went (my friends can vouch id drive it hard and that "D" wasnt used much there was a "1", "2" and "3" lol). maintenance and upgrades i would say ive put about maybe $5k in these past 5 yrs (includes 6 new injectors and 120k timing belt kit).
ok enough with that. time to think about front suspension.

I understand where you're coming from, but it's just that our cars have big limitations, limits that you'll soon realize your self unless you plan on dropping crazy money into it. Our cars are similar in the sense that they're heavy, chassis suck, and they're all motor. With that combo our cars will never be able to handle well, and the only way we're going fast is through FI...I have coilovers, FSTB, RSTB, RSB, new bushings, and my car handles a lot better but a stock miata would probably make my car look slow in auto-x. Sub frame connectors will hopefully help, and is next on my to do list.
Yah next costly mod is the 300zxTT motor swap. It will cost me about $7k to get to about ~430rwhp. My next and last current motor upgrade is ECU which will put me over 200. I dont want to waste money on exhaust if I'm going to get it done again for the TT setup.
Yah my car is a 3400lb brick lol
