Cant get a perfect allignment with anything more than a .75 drop. If its lower than that you need a camber to get perfect allignment.

I dont know if you can go lower with just springs than this:
Tanabe DF210s (I think these are about the lowest out there)
tokico shock
evo A arms
SPC rear camber
(wheel spacers too)

I have the prokit on my coupe with stock shocks (for now). I needed an alignment of course but I'm running it with no camber kit. I thought the camber was going to be an issue but my tires are still good and I have about 16,000 miles on them. Basically, you don't have to have the camber kit, but it wouldn't hurt. Peace.

I forget the exact drop, but I went with Hotchkis springs for the Z. I def need to get an alignment soon, but I don't think I'll need any camber kits, etc...

Ok so I am a DAILY DRIVE and do you guys honestly thinking a spring and tokico D shocks is a better route to take? I do no track my car at all, no autocross, nothing that involves my car really racing other than spirited driving! =) I need something that will drop my car and increase some handling all while holding close ratios of stock comfort. Or do you guys just say get the coilovers? If get get coilovers id get HKS LS. If not then what spring and shock set up would you guys recommend. I will also be on aftermarket wheels later on but right now im on my stock 19s. I can't remember but if i drop less than a 1in on my car was it i only need a rear toe for alignment or do i need cambers in the front too? - I really need some help with this!
