hybrid, thanks for taking and posting up these pics. It looks great. I think you've sold me on a 350z suspension, now I just gotta get my hands on a good set

u won't be able to get the alignment completely back to stock. when I first put the z springs up front and coupe springs in rear, I had an aligment done and told them to setup for a g coupe of the same year as my sedan. the specs were *almost* back in range. they aren't going to be out enough to worry about exessive tire wear. i have put about 5kmiles on the old setup and didn't have any abnormal tire wear.

06 5AT sedan w/ full 350Z revised suspension - pics

Just got my 350Z suspension put on the other day. My first real mod actually. Thought someone else might appreciate seeing some pics of an 06 sedan dropped with the 17" stockers. IMO, the 17"s look okay, but they don't quite fill out the wheel well. Wheels with a lower offset are a definite must. Just waiting on getting my quarterpanel rolled before the coupe 19"s go on.

Handling, like what everyone else mentioned, is now great. Not too stiff. Another great thing about the 350z suspension is that everything fits back in perfectly. No squeaking or grinding that I'm accustomed to with every other lowered car I've ever sat in. Looking forward to sways as a potential next mod. That and probably some tint...

Looks great! You will love the coupe 19s and can't go wrong with a set of sways.

When I had my coupe/z-springs & front camber kit installed, the alignment was $75. I'd imagine some places will charge up to $125 or so....
