LOWERING need some advice

I have an '04 coupe. I want to lower it about an inch all around. Need some advice on what lowering springs I should use and if I NEED a camber kit?

Thanks

Anything under 1 1/2" should be fine without a camber kit, but many would suggest you get a camber kit all the way around. I would say you would need a toe kit for the rear at the most.

How would I find out for sure? from the dealer after I put the springs on or would I be able to notice from just driving?

Got any tips on any reputable brands?

If all you want is about an inch drop you can look into getting used 350z springs/tein s-techs/tein h-techs. Shouldnt cost you too much and i would recommend rear camber/toe kits since the rear tires are usually more expesive. rear its go for about $150. the front kits however go for about 350 but if you can afford to get those, go for it. if you can afford coilovers, i would go that route too since you can adjust the height and sometimes damepening as well

I think the coilovers are a bit too expensive... lol I might be able to get some used tein springs... then just would need to dish out for the camber kit.

Thanks
