Help with lowering please (Orlando)

Hey everyone, hope this is the right section. Been checking out this group and entertaining becoing a memeber. Anywayz, got my 03 G35 coupe in November and finally came around to beginning the modding. nismo front kit on the way, doing some stuff with the headlights, switching out the wheels, tint, passport mounted radar detector. Just small stuff. All thats left now is lowering the coupe. Looking for a low drop with eibach sportlines or tanabe nf 210. I am fairly familiar with the G as i owned a 350z for couple years before. Just wondering if there are any performance places that would deal with lowering my car with spc camber kit in rear. Searched relentlessly thru the forum and came across rz motoring but thats in tampa and performance factory which seems non existent anymore. If anyone can point me to a right place or willing to do the labor for me let me know please, ill pay. I do not want to try DIY cause i always mess things up lol. thanx.

Well If you were in Tampa you could take it to S&R Performance.
Dont know anyone in Orlando though, maybe you can go to one of there TECH days and have it installed.

Good choice on the Nismo Kit!

I was thinking of doing another tech day at the house in March. Springs and a camber kit is something we could help you with, np bob.

Pics of the ride?

I had a couple tech days at my house last year. I wanted to have one more before I move at the end of March. Basically we have a mini Orlando meet. We'll have burgers or pizza there. Last time, we played poker, too. I'll start a thread about it soon.

It's several hours of work but really not too challenging. So if you want I'd be more than happy to help you install if you wanna come over to my next tech day. Then it's free labor =) But you could always bring beer or pizza...

Oh, and Chris has done a few toe bolt holes (mine included) so maybe we can convince him to help out =)

speedzone quoted $100 for coil over install including intial tune / setup. im sure they couldnt be much more and maybe less for a spring install.
i installed my own s-techs with at a buddy house, he had a huge compressor which made it a cake walk. But it really not that bad to DIY, especially the rears.

We need to have tech day anyway! Set it up SEN-SEN!!!
