Hey everybody. I'm looking for some info on Bilstein shocks. Are they great for 350z suspension or more or less the same as stock? How would they compare to the Tokico HPs or D-specs? I've read that the D-Specs will not lower the car but only springs do. I'm not planning on lowering the Z, just want new shocks that will improve handling without taking away the ride quality. I'm not sure if many people run them on the Z's but I see it's a popular brand on German cars.

Bilstein B9s are a proven upgrade for your Z. Like Koni Sport shocks, they're valved slightly firmer on bounce, so handling improves, but you may feel the road a bit more. On stock springs you may not even notice.

BTW- I'd rate the Bilsteins higher than either of the Tokico products. Let us know what you end up with, and what you think when they're installed and aligned.
