If you have 900 then that probably won't be enough for you to get coilovers since you have to get at least the rear camber kit. On top of that you have to install them, which you can probably do it yourself, and get an alignment. Which will easily put you in around the 1300. If the road conditions are bad where you are at, then you probably will not have a comfy ride, scraping, and/or bottoming out a lot.

You can always get an MREV2, which shows great gains on your REVUP engine combined with the spacer you already have.

If you are going for looks then i'm sure you'll be dropping it at least 1.5'', in that case you'll for sure need a camber kit for the rear at the minimum. IMO I think if you are set on getting coilovers get the rear camber at the same time . You'll save time and money, though you'll run over your 900 budget by a few hundred even if you install it yourself. GL

Is 850 a good price? Isn't that MSRP?

Rear camber can be as cheap as 150 all the way up to 400, depending on what brand you go with. I think the Megan ones are around 200 as well as the more popular SPC ones.

I wouldn't rush things.. I would save up until I have the right amount for the product that I want. Maybe you should save up a little more and get some better coilovers?

G35 Must Have Mods

Hey guys, long time reader, first time poster. Decided to begin posting here because I just purchased a 2006 G35 Coupe (black/black)

Anyways, I was just wondering what some of the must-have mods for the g35 would be in your opinion. I'm looking for some ideas because I would like to start modding my g35 as soon as possible!
