Tein H-Tech springs
he said he was undecided ... but to me it looks like it is lowered already and i think if its not lowered and you do that with a +30 in the rear you will rub !!
That's what I was thinking.
Not meaning to hijack the thread but since this subject pertains to my question I figured might as well go ahead and ask. If this isn't appropriate and should be in the tech area I apologize and I'll move it ova 
I've been doing some research on these, more specifically the 350z Htech springs for my 2006 6MT sedan, and I'm still a little confused. From what I've read you can simply put these springs on the car and achieve the drop you want but it'll mess with the camber settings and give uneven tire wear right? I've seen people say that you don't need to put stuff like camber arms and toe bolts on but it'll help in the long run?
Essentially my question is what all would you need to get to help eliminate/minimize the effects of the springs on the tires? Just front and rear camber arms and toe bolts or is there something else I'm missing?

you will need to get aftermarket camber kits SPC etc.. what ever the 350z h techs are you add +1'' to that no matter what ... you will be around -3* rear and -2* front cause I'm on 350z s techs and those are my camber numbers as we speak .. the min you get this done with that much of a drop go right down to get an alignment cause you TOE CASTER AND CAMBER will be all out of wack like mine was .. with the factory settings of camber front and rear i was able to get my TOE AND CASTER in sedan spec but not my camber

Those of you with the H-techs, did you think that the drop was true to spec??? I am undecided if I want to put the rear springs on. It looks like they will rub bad if I put them on and I only have a little less than 1" gap in the rear now. A little less than two fingers. I have new 235/45/18 tires on 18 X 8 coupe rims with 30mm offset.
do you have the h-techs on the front as we speak ??

I have the coupe H techs with full coupe suspension the ride is not bad but at all. I have my fenders rolled and I also did the spring mount mod camber kit is a must. im hoping here in a few months i will be on BC coils
They are not on the car yet....The FedEx tracker has them scheduled to arrive Tomorrow and I will have them put on Thursday. I will probably not do the rears though because I am pretty confident that it will rub by the looks of it. I really don't want to deal with rolling the fenders or having issues going over speed bumps.....we will see though 2 days is a long time for me to change my mind
Ahh, that makes more sense then. Yeah, if you are going to keep that sub box in there you would be sagging in the rear if you put on the H-Techs.

You seriously can't have more than one person in your car? Somethings gotta be wrong, because it's not even a big drop at all with the H-Techs. I've had them on for 8 months and I have my car full of people all the time. I drive my car a lot for work as well and I've never had any problems at all, and it's never been bouncy. Maybe I got lucky but I doubt it.

cant have more then one person in the back..the ride is great...but id prefer stiffer in the rear which the H techs r softer then stock(in the rear)..the fronts are awsome so i want to jus get the sport coupe springs and struts for the rear to stiffin it up and give it a slight drop over stock..i got the stock 17s and have no issues of rubbing at all and my camber is off soo little its not really notible..it appears the rear is worse
Had my H-Techs put on the front and am glad I did not put the rears on. It definitely leveled the car off better. I will try to take pics and pot tomorrow.... Anyone interested in buying my H-Tech rear springs
