lowering springs - pics and feedback needed
whats up yall
i want to lower my G and wanted to get your feedback on the springs out there and any pics you may have so i can compare the drop.
i dont want to drop it too low, but low enough to where it looks and handles better. i want to avoid scraping driveways, etc.
let me know what you think!

If you want a more subtle drop, dont get s tech's. To be honest, im really not that happy with my drop. It looks great, but rides much stiffer than i would like and I do have to drive smart so I dont scrape pulling out of some parking lots and driveways. If i had it to do it all over again i would have put out the extra cash to get tein coilovers. I give my S techs a 4/10.

i have 350z h techs with my oem 17s. so far, i am happy with the drop in the front. but the rear is a different story right now. hopefully when i get my wheels in a week or two with the right offsets the rear will look better.
but as for right now, i wish i got the g35 s techs.
it sounds like you want 350z h techs - very popular here on the forums. its a very subtle, yet noticeable drop. nothing to extreme yet it still looks nice.

first off, i dont feel comfortable doing that work myself. anything that i dont have experience with i like to have done with a friend with experience. but thats just a personal thing. so the question is, where are you located?
secondly, how is your negative camber? were you able to get back into specs or at least close to it?

this thread has pics of 350z h techs, before and after. also, go to page 2 for pics after 6 weeks. the springs settled a little more.
