Like beebo said you also need camberkits. if your going really low you need front t(A-arms) and rear camber it

Although I can start an argument about how not all coils improve performance, I just hope you guys realize that added rebound in the struts is what adds performance, not springs or the drop itself.

So will the tanbe spring hurt my performance??

[chord42]

no problems with BC, the g37 ones were bad. bcs are awesome for g35

Brace yourself for this answer... yes and no.

While a drop can be beneficial to handling by helping eliminate a bit of sway, your stock struts won't be working as efficiently and won't last as long, and you've also changed the center of balance of your car which would be fine if you don't plan on turning both directions.

Get springs for looks... If you want performance, get sway bars and struts (and of course, tires)

what do yall think should be next for me? i was thinking tint, but i dont wana get pulled over, but ill probly still do it. other options were nismo front, bigger slotted, drilled rotors, better sub and or amp, headers, crawford plenum, etc.. any auggestions??

[Dranom]

^^ill go w/ MREV2, 35% tint, sway bars, nismo front will look good,

[dofu]

I agree with the MREV2 and sway bars, but get some tie bars too.

[chord42]

doesnt the mrev only work well with revups?
and what are tie bars?

Since you have an 07, if you have a manual tranny, you have a revup. If you have an auto, you don't have revup.

As for the tie bars, etc... gtspec.com
