D2 Coilovers

Post by avi_z33 » Tue May 19, 2015 1:57 pm

Hey guys :)

Iv got a set of D2 coilovers all around which i would like installed. This would mean I would need to get rid of the spring bucket in the rear.
Has anyone been through this?
And, can this be certified?

Thanks!

Re certification ring a lvvta certifier up and talk with them, don't bother ringing lvvta themselves as they will just tell you to read the appendix and ring a certifier.

The certifier's are more than happy to talk you through stuff

Word of advice don't get D2's for the 350z.

Contacted the supplier of D2's in NZ. Said they will pass so I went and got them put in. Another problem, doesn't have a mount attached to the strut for the brake and ABS lines. At the moment I have just zip tied them, will need to make custom mounts for the lines to pass cert. What a hassle. Should of gone with BC gold or spent more for Teins.

Fair to say tho, handles like it's on rails now :P handling has increased incredibly.
