1.6" Drop?

First off, I wanted to thank everyone for the help that they have been giving me on this site, I do not know too much about modding cars yet becasue this is my first nice car that I actually really care about and I want to make it as nice as possible.

I was wondering if theese springs were good, they seem a little cheap to me but I just wanted a second opinion

Does anyone have a picture of a g35 with a 1.5" drop? Will it be a noticable difference and will I need to do anything to the suspension with a 1.5" drop? Thanks alot.

Get a reputable brand. They don't even list the spring rates. It could be incredibly soft or hard for all we know.

Look here for more info.

If that is your price range, look for used G35 or 350z Tein S-techs in the for sale forums.

Couldn't find anything not sold, I guess I'll just have to keep checking back once in a while to see when I can get them, about how much would install be for springs? Ballpark estimate is okay. Thanks for your help man, I really appreciate it

$100-200 for a shop. <$100 if you find a local forum member.

350z Eibach Sportlines would look nice. Also look for Tein basic coilovers.

Also, I'm not gonna help you anymore until you take that Nismo thing off you windshield. What Nismo parts do you have?

I used to have a Nissan 350z with a full nismo body kit and a nismo spoiler but It was totalled by a drunk driver. I had that nismo decal sitting around becasue it came with the body kit and put it on as a kind of tribute to my Z. But I am getting the Nismo front bumper for my g35.

A Nismo bumper, no less a replica, does not constitute a gigantic Nismo decal across your windshield.

But whatever floats your boat.

Look for some Tein Basic coilovers if you're just looking for a drop - that way you can drop it to your liking.

I just put the sticker on 3 days ago, I'm just trying it out to see how I like it, I think it looks better in person becasue I have a strip of limo tint on the top of my windshield that goes well with the decal
