MCS TT1 Single Adjustable Monotube Dampers (Nissan 370Z)


All MCS damper kits are built to order so expect an estimated 2-6 week build time after you order. If you chose to order online, you will be billed immediately. If you would like to call in the order (we prefer that) we process a deposit for the shocks up front, with the rest billed when they are complete.

Introduction

Vorshlag Motorsports is an authorized Motion Control Suspension dealer. The MCS TT1 single adjustable damper is far from basic. This damper set features a full 18 settings of rebound control over a wide range, unique to each vehicle model's specific requirements. Dampers are more than just a number of adjustments and click count – the shape of the resulting curves is specifically engineered to give your car the most grip through the range of surface conditions and dynamic inputs your vehicle experiences.

A really nice feature of these ‘entry-level’ TT1 single adjustable non-remote dampers is that they are upgradeable to a reservoir type damper at any time. “We decided to design a modular damper system with interchangeable parts to make it possible to upgrade these ‘entry-level’ dampers to a 2-Way adjustable reservoir damper system down the road.  Many customers will benefit from this and will be able to upgrade without the need of investing into a complete new damper set when upgrading their program,”  Lex Carson, Motion Control Suspension

All the MCS dampers are built in the USA. They are fully rebuildable, serviceable and can be custom valved and upgraded any time here in the USA.


Key Features

  • Adjustment range of 18 different settings for rebound control
  • Monotube design front and rear
  • Nitrogen pressure is adjustable if required
  • Includes standard spring hardware (springs and camber plates are not included)

Parts Included:

  • 2 Front MCS Single Adjustable (18 adj, Rebound only) Monotube Struts
  • 2 Rear MCS Single Adjustable (18 adj, Rebound only) Monotube Shocks
  • MCS Front Spring Perches for 60mm springs and your OEM upper strut mounts (removed when bought with camber plates)
  • Unique to Vorshlag: We include the 1.5mm allen wrench used to tighten the rebound knobs onto the adjustment shaft.

Please note: These dampers are designed and built shorter than OEM length and are not legal for SCCA Stock Class  This kit should not be used with Stock Class spring perches. MCS shocks designed specifically for SCCA can be found HERE.

     
    Choose the appropriate options and model alterations from the drop down menus below. These options will affect the final price as shown for each option. All optional packages and parts include significant discounts when purchased with shocks rather than buying the parts separately.


    MCS SPHERICAL TOP MOUNTS: We highly recommend MCS aluminum, fixed top mounts for the front ($400/pair) and rear ($350/pair) for the Nissan 370Z. This makes using off-the-shelf coilover springs possible without a lot of weird adapters and re-work to the factory shock top mounts. It also removes a big hunk of rubber that is in the factory shock load path. 

    Unlike a McStrut car, the front does not need camber/caster adjustment on the 370Z, which has an SLA style front control arm setup. The black MCS spherical top mount just removes the rubber bushing that normally allows the shock to pivot under suspension movement. We recommend the spherical shock mounts for MCS users that see any competition use, such as autocross or track events. If the car is a daily driven vehicle only and/or the user is worried about bad roads and any additional NVH transmitted through a rear spherical mount, then choose to retain your OEM style mount.  The advantage to spherical RSMs is their ability to transmit reactions to shock forces instantly and direct - something that shows up on a shock dyno plot.


    SPRING RATES : While MCS provides you with the dampers only, Vorshlag offers the unique option for racers to pick their own front and rear spring rates at a reduced cost. These options will include new Hyperco or Swift springs from our recommended packages. The spring options listed include our GT package for daily driven cars, the GTS package for street cars that are also used in autocross and/or track events and the GTR package for race cars that predominantly see track use. If you would like to order custom rates not listed here, please give us a call. This can be arranged for typically no extra cost.


    All Hyperco springs are measured in inch lengths and rate is in pounds of force per inch of travel (lbs/in). In order to convert the inch lengths to metric lengths, multiply the length by 25.4 (divide by 25.4 to convert from metric to inches). In order to convert lbs/in to kgf/mm, you need to divide the lbs/in number by 56. In order to convert lbs/in to Newtons/mm, you need to divide the lbs/in number by 5.7.

    All Swift springs are measured in millimeter lengths and rate is in kilograms of force per millimeter of travel (kgf/mm). In order to convert the metric lengths to inch lengths, divide the length by 25.4 (multiply by 25.4 to convert from inches to metric). In order to convert kgf/mm to lbs/in, you need to multiply the kgf/mm number by 56.

    • 2 Front 60mm Coilover Springs
    • 2 Rear 60mm Coilover Springs
    • Tender springs (as shown above) are extra
