Roy - truer words have never been spoken.

I never really gave it a thought until I joined this forum (damn forum). I loved the car as I first saw it in the showroom.
It's one thing to make a high rise out of a AWD SUV but doing it to a sports sedan makes absolutely no sense. I see that now.
There is a huge difference in how it feels to drive it now and all because of a mere 7/8" drop. What a difference!

Question for the OP: why didn't you install the 307z springs on the rear rather than doing the spring mount mod?

The rear 370Z springs don't work.
The size is wrong.

rpm, you are inspiring me to do the same, thanks for showing me (and the rest of the G community) how everything turned out. I only want a mild drop as well and your expirement seems to be the solution I was looking for so I can avoid that damn truck look. If you don't mind me asking, how much did this little lowering endeavour run you? You can pm me if you want...

I love the grill Paul, I wish I could do the same with my spare grill but it was too chipped so the whole thing had to be done.

I honestly think Infiniti should look at BMW in terms of the wheel gap on factory OEM springs, Bimmers have the perfect hight from the factory. The S models should have had the 370Z springs from the factory IMO.
