Which is totally possible and many race teams do it successfully, but it's not something that the every day forum member has the resources for.
I didn't make this journey with the Z but did it with my 4Runner modding it for off-roading / overlanding. And while I really like the end result I came to the same realization that I don't want to modify my Z any more and really prefer to keep it as close to stock as possible. Always wanted to get coilovers but more and more inclining to throw OEM in there

PS: but maybe I'm just getting old and lazy
