R33 suspension in 240z


Recommended Posts

The Stock 240Z is a great handling car. Even in a worn out state, it can still take a curve pretty respectably. That just goes to show that it's more than struts and springs that make the 240Z handle, it's the entire suspension system geometry that was engineering well. The Datsun engineers could have very easily and lazily just transferred the 510 suspension over to the Z, but they didn't. They came up with a unique design for this car. You think there was a reason for that? They weren't fools, that's for sure. You think there was a reason that they angled the struts inward; I've seen many cars that don't? Were they making room for other tires?

Some might disagree but i tend to agree alot with this statement. I have found the Z to be a great handling car. If only I had the money to fix all the things that have worn out. Even in stock form the Z is a great handling vehicle. I've driven more modernish cars say from the 90's era that haven't been all that flash hot. Especially some of the hatch backs.
