Looks good. Too subtle for my taste. But congrats on the drop man!

So are you going to need a camber kit? how come you didn't go with the 350z H tech springs? was that too low for you?

Not sure yet - alignment on this coming tues and then I'll know. I choose the g35 htechs instead of 350z in the hopes that I wouldn't need a camber kit. Stay tuned...

Can you post some more pics of your car dropped? I was leaning toward the 350 Z H techs but I would want to see some more pics of your drop.

good post. I am also deciding if I want to go S-tech or H-tech and 350Z vs. G springs. I was leaning toward the S-tech 350Z for the aggressive apearance. But I don't wanna get caught up in buying additional camber parts so my $hit doesn't get messed up down the road. Anxious to see the alignment results...

If you are getting S-techs for 350Z you will definitely need camber kit front and rear. That thing is LOW... search for some pics. The S-techs for G35 are slightly higher but still a good inch drop.

I figured as much. I was hoping there would be some way around it. I wanted the aggressive drop from the s-tech, but I was hoping to avoid spending the $$$ on the chamber kits. I guess I'll be doing more research. Thanks for the heads up.

Yea you will def need a camber kit for the 350Z S tech, the S tech for the G is a pretty aggressive drop itself imo. I think the only ones you might be able to get away without a camber kits is the H techs and I'm not even sure on that...waiting for the op's results after alignment.

Im planning on dropping my car with 350z h-techs soon. Ive seen others with the same drop and they did not need a camber kit even with the 350z h-techs.
