Posted February 7, 200322 yr comment_26047 I'm restoring an early 240Z and I'd like to use a new set of springs on it. Does anyone have a set of NOS springs they would be willing to sell at a reasonable price? I have plenty of used springs so don't offer to sell me any more.

February 7, 200322 yr comment_26048 Hi Ben,I have been looking for some new OEM springs for my 240 for some time now, to no avail. The closest I have come is an offer from Banzai for some reproduction springs to the original specifications. Not exactly cheap at $165/pair, but they are supposed to be a direct replacement for the original stock springs.Hope this helps,Marty Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/4613-new-front-and-rear-240z-springs/#findComment-26048 Share on other sites More sharing options...

February 16, 200322 yr comment_26842 I agree on the price....... It is a great deal. I just don't have the funds to go that route. I'm also trying to keep the Z from dropping that extra inch Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/4613-new-front-and-rear-240z-springs/#findComment-26842 Share on other sites More sharing options...

February 19, 200322 yr comment_27122 I just bought a set for the rear... I'll be getting some for the front though. Here's the deal, They are $89 per pair (plus shipping), and he takes credit cards. He has several sets left and I've worked out a deal that I can get a discount on mt front set depending on how many I refer over to him that buy. Just tellin it like it is. If you buy them from him, tell him Dwight with the orange 240 sent you oh and let me know to.... His name is Dave, pretty damn nice guy (I just met him the once), his website is www.arizonazcar.com and his email address is dave@arizonazcar.com. I hope to get arounf to installing these this weekend so I'll let ya know how it goes. Here is a pic of the ones I bought from him.

February 19, 200322 yr comment_27125 Dwight:I've seen this fellow's website, and from the photo, they are not OEM rear springs. I believe that he advertises them as stiffer that stock springs, but not lowering the car. Did he give you any specs on the spring rate, or anything?CarlEDIT: Nevermind, I checked the site and they are 200 lbs/in for Rears and 180 lbs/in for Fronts.

February 19, 200322 yr comment_27171 Dwight,Thanks for checking them out. The price is really good! I think they are way too stiff for my tastes though. Even Stage II Euro Springs are only 122F/142R. Those would probably be better for racing than a street car.I guess I'll keep looking.Marty Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/4613-new-front-and-rear-240z-springs/#findComment-27171 Share on other sites More sharing options...
March 17, 200322 yr comment_30120 I have a set posted on the for sale section. They are brand new springs front and rear. Nissan parts tags are still on them. fronts 55020-21004 rears 54010-A5410 Have them listed for 550 but will entertain resonable offers.
