The S-techs give the car a great stance IMO. But, lowering that much on just springs will reduce the life of the OEM shocks, especially if you drive you car pretty hard on a daily basis. If you drive normally, your struts should last a while. You will also want a front camber kit since the tires will not last long with that kind of negative camber.
If you plan on doing some serious driving, then I suggest rebuilding the entire suspension. This is costly though.

if you want a decent drop without being slammed and don't feel like adjusting height you can get the s tech or the 350z H tech and get tokiko blues shocks/ struts. Comes out to a couple hundred less than coilovers

Depends on how you drive. Do you want looks or performance:

I am basically doing it for looks, how much more of a drop does s techs have over the h techs...the reason why i ask i been looking at some rims that i want but i notived some of the pics with guys with some nice rims theres a big oem gap which i want to greatly reduce...but i noticed that a full tein suspension is about 2 grand which isnt a big deal but if i can hold off for a bit i will cross that bridge when i get there but for now im jsut dropping some coin on rims n lowering springs with other mods...

Also does that mean I'll need a camber kit for this setup?

I want to add a few engine mods and make it as fast as possible. Could someone give me a few ideas on what I should do? Where to start?![Dunno](https://g35driver.com/forums/images/smilies/dunno.gif)
I also have a pioneer flip face dvd player That I would Like to install but I don't want to make the center console look cheap by installing generic after market dins. Help
Thanks,
Drod

^first welcome to driver.
the best bang for the buck engine mod will be a Motordyne Plenum Spacer. you can get a intake but that wont do much but make a cool sound
. then get a exhaust and get your car tuned.
if you dont want the cheap looking Double Din get the JDM DD kit from our sponsor on this site tony@riversideinfiniti
