So over the July 4th weekend I finally installed the Stance GR+ (True Type) and SPC F/R that I got from the guys at THMotorsports. Fantastic to work with and answered any and all of my questions. Highly recommend them; you can find them in the vendors section here on driver.

So the installation took longer than I thought b/c it was the first self install that I had done and ran into a snag or two but they turned out fine. I went ahead and installed the spacers in the front for the extra positive camber since I had them figured may as well. Not sure if that was the right decision... see pics below.

The drop is slight for the time being. Want to get used to driving around on it a bit and gradually lower more. The dampening settings are at 8 all around until I get the extensions installed... by the way anyone have a link to the DIY through the Trunk and NOT the one through the child seat clips?

Not sure what I want to keep those at for F/R but I mostly daily drive my car with some "spirited" driving. Its not track driven at all right now.

WedSport SA55M BBM
F: 19, 9.5, +15; 245/35/19 Hankook V12
R: 19 10.5, +15; 275/35/19 Hankook V12

Rear fenders are rolled flat admittedly not done very well. Never using Performance Chassis in Cary, NC ever again.



If you notice the scrapes on the wheels they're relatively minor (slight rash on the rear ) but most of this is from the thinnest paint imagineable used by Wedssport. Love the color/finish and combination but man this paint is thinnnnnnnnn. Any suggestions on a nice color/finish combination to powder coat these in is appreciated. Would like to keep the machined blue part but am open to suggestions.







Alignment specs below (done by Import Motor Werks in Cary NC). I'm wondering if I need to adjust some of these settings. Visually they look good... but I second guess myself alot as well.

LF: -1.8 camber, 9.4 caster, 0.06 toe
RF: -1.7 camber, 9.5 caster, 0.04 toe

LR: -1.9 camber, 0.14 toe
RR: -1.9 camber, 0.16 toe

Next on the to do list is body which I'm thinking relatively simple with Nismo front, Nismo or Impul Sides, and Nismo rear diffuser. Am still tempted to do K2 front, Impul Sides, CS w/ CF rear but not sure...

And yes also clear corners. Then potentially drop it more once those body parts are on.

Comments and constructive criticism welcome. Outright flames well... haters gonna hate I guess.

looks good i saw these wheels for sale on my350z

 

Looks good to me, pretty flush. That'll change if you go lower. I think they could get the toe a little better though. I'd do that after you lower it some more.

 

need a candy blue powder coated akebono bbk.. ^^

 

Looks good, but I would drop it enough to at least close that wheel gap.

 

@daniel - will take that into consideration when I take it in next time after it gets lowered again. really is going to depend on timing as I might ride like this for awhile but will then run into the winter months making more drop and kit and wheels a bigger concern. seems sad to wait until spring to do more mods tho... hmmm will have to think on timing that.

@omghi2u - no kidding! i actually have a new set of pads and rotors (both stoptech) that i thought id need for this but my brakes are fine. much cheaper but yea dont look as good as akebono

@Xet - yep more drop is up after the body work done. only want to get that set proper once instead of twice.

 

Looks nice!

 

Nice and flush

 

Thanks guys. Not sure if its quite flush persay b/c if I drop it again it will have some more gap sadly. Still looks pretty good for right now I think.
