lower mine G35X

Hi! All Fella G. What Spring kits should i use for lower mine 08 G35X
I know there is an issue with the X but many ppl using Eibach Pro with rear camber kits? I just want 1-1.25 inches low. Not more than that for NYC

Any advice would be appreciate.

im rockin my x on eibach pros with rear camber kit.

heres my thread:
White G35X dropped, nothing special.

A quote from there:

Quote:

the kit is for the RWD G35 or sport model. the eibach part# is 6383.140, front drop 1.4", rear 1.3".
The alignment kit was part# 5.72260K (toe and camber).

Someone asked, is the alignment kit 100% mandatory? I couldn't truly tell you. I would, and I did.

I researched on the forums here and the guys' posts tell me it was necesary. for a mere $200ish for the kit, why risk camber-wearing good tires. I think my alignment was out almost 3 degrees in the rear after the drop, now all is good. Do it right the first time is my motto.

Max spec, -0.8 after dropping with Eibachs -1.6, about 200kms and counting, with no adverse effects so far.

A quote from there:

Your car looks fabulous with that drop! However, was wondering about your opinion on the ride over various roads?? Also, I occasionally autocross, and like to take the car to track days,, would the Eibachs hold up the car allright? Have you ever bottomed hard?? Mine is an X also,, I like the stock shock damping,, but are the Eibachs sprung a little stiffer?? any info on these would be greatly appreciated!!!

regards...

Eh... I'm not sure I like the look. (no offense)

I know it's a level drop, but the rear gap looks smaller than that in the front.
The best looking drop on an X that I have seen to date is the Impul springs...

All of the info is in the thread link AesonVirus posted above.

Here is some info from it:
The IMPUL Springs can be found here: http://japanparts.com. The stats are: Front SF-76(20mm down) Rear SR-76(5mm down). The price is around $432 for the set.

ddubb got his from Japanparts.com, but Rick at Riverside told us that he can get these now as well. I would highly suggest going through Rick and he has all the part #'s and info you will need.

Wayne, I see that you are also lurking in the threads that involve a drop.
Who's gonna be first?
