Tom,
The sport mode in non zcp struts were linear and not dynamic (normal and comfort were variable damped). One of the advantages of zcp struts were that all three modes were dynamic. Are these struts dynamic across the board? If so, in sport mode they would be more beneficial than the non zcp struts. Cheers, Lutfy |

I am going to with Dinan coilover kit and these shocks so that I can keep the EDC.

Does that solution work for ZCP though? I thought I read a few posts up that these are only for NON ZCP models? Or am I confused?

You tell me? Like I mentioned, I thought someone above posted that these shocks didn't work for ZCP because the spring perch was higher. I have no clue if that's a problem or not if you remove the whole shock. That's what I was asking.

You cant use a sleeve kit with these shocks. The Dinan kit would be more comparable to to just lowering springs + goodies. The shell on these struts is unibody so it wont allow an after market strut clamp where the spring sits.

So are you saying the dinan kit will not be compatible with bilstein shocks?

So far I havent seen a separate ZCP strut yet. I checked and it looks like they just have the original set unless I'm wrong. http://cart.bilsteinus.com/search/mm.../drivetype=RWD Quote:
Should have a review shortly for you.

Can these HD Bilstein EDC units be used with lowering springs on a non ZCP vehicle? I'm considering H&R sports to go along with the replacements next month. I know they advertise "ideal for lowering springs", but you reminded me Bilstein makes the sport (non edc) with lowering springs specifically in mind. Thanks for any info.
