Review: Nismo S-tune Suspension for JDM Skyline Coupe

I don't think the Nismo sways will give you many problems with the end links since they're so close to the ones you have. If I remember, the Nismo sways are fairly expensive. The ones from Stillen give you a little more stiffness and are very popular. I have the Hotchkis and can't complain.
275 T1Rs on 10.5" rims at +22 is a very common setup. I can go into the parking lot here at work and find at least two G's like that
. You'd get problems only if your car was really slammed, but the S-tune only lowers 0.8".

Yeah, I'm not looking for anything to significantly lower the height, but rather to improve handling while not sacrificing too much in ride comfort, nor worrying too much about needing to fix camber. This is my daily driver, so ride comfort must be tolerable. I don't really track the car, but would enjoy some spirited driving on weekends carving up the twisties. Would the sway bars make a significant improvement over my stock ones? I've never had aftermarket sway bars on any of my cars before. Always thought most of the handling was in the shock/spring combo.Hmmm, just wondering if there's a place with good pricing for the Nismo S-Tune suspension?

g-attack is 8kg/mm front, 9kg/mm back
The g-attack is firmer than stock but not dramatically so. I'd consider a very good all-around suspension, although if you're looking for a soft, cushy ride it isn't for you.

Sorry to bring up an ancient thread but just wanted some confirmation as I have access to a 350z s tune for quite a reasonable price.
So question: I'm already dropped on factory z suspension on my sedan. Using the 350z s tune which drops the z by 20mm, I can expect a further 20mm drop on my sedan? Is that a valid assumption?
Thanks
