Thanks guys My tank was damn near empty when those photos were snapped after the drop. When I filled it this morning it looked much more noticeable in the rear haha. Maybe I'll always have to keep my tank full..

Now three days post drop, rear is sitting about .3" lower and front is about .7" lower. No new struts, no camber kit.

Thanks! It is definitely lower. Rear not by much, but noticeable in person, front is pretty noticeable though. I had three reasons for the 350z h-techs.
1. Dropped lower than g35 h-techs, but not as low a s-techs
2. Subtle drop, allowed me to get into my driveway without scraping
3. Wanted to avoid rubbing issues when my new wheels get here

I am very pleased with the results

I ordered them through Vivid Racing. If you have AIM hit up VividMike on there. He is the best and is ALWAYS on during the week. It was very convenient being able to IM him for tracking/questions/etc. Got them for $180 shipped. He price matches though so you may be able to get them for less if you find a better deal elsewhere. I know you can get them for less from Sandy@ART on here, but I like how Mike was readily available. Made me feel better about the purchase haha. If you want his phone # let me know, or shoot him an IM. Tell him Nic sent ya

springs should last a very long time. Teins are well made so you have nothing to worry about at 15k for sure. I'd say jump on it.

Thanks They are a pain to install yourself, but if you or someone you know has the right tools its worth it to save some money.

I rather it drop less than having the springmoust modded. So I guess 350Z H-Tech requires the rear springmount mod to get a "even" look. Does the G35 H-Tech drop pretty even without the springmod?
