No, keep your car like it is. Someone who speaks like you shouldn't be driving around in a G. A modded one at that.

If you're going to do it, do it right the 1st time. That means, camber kits, springs and shocks... It'll save you money in the long run. Instead of doing it all over again.

-----------

But honestly, the height looks perfect that way it is. Just tint your windows and call it a day. $200 tint vs $1300+ suspension upgrade just to lower your car an 1...

+1 Except, instead of springs and shocks, just save up for a good set of coilovers and you'll be set. Then you won't have to buy new springs everytime you want to change your ride height.

drop the ride? hell yes!! how much? that is a question of the usage of the car, and where you live. I live in chicago, drive the car year around, even when there is 5 inches of powder on the streets, i dropped it with z-springs and i have 20's on my car now, car sits sexy and still give me a good ground clearence, had i not gotten a greddy front bumper i woulda gone with Tein 350z htechs (perfect balance between the tein s techs and h techs for the G)

The lower you go, the more costly. Cuz you gotta get camber kits for anything more than an 1". I got a .5" in the rear and about .7" in front and im having very slight camber issues. Also when you go real low, your shocks are gonna blow. So if you looking to go lower than an inch, get coilovers, they give you adjustability which is nice. But with that comes another concern, and thats ride comfort, some of those coils are damn stiff, you might hate your ride.

Dropping the whip is a must do, but theres a lot more **** to think about that many people dont know about. For the performance aspect, i got some hotchkis adjustable sways, the G rides on rails, i love it. Good luck!!

the body roll is probably cuz he dropped his car and blew his shocks, so now they are way softer than they should be

Hi I just bought a G35 yesterday and I looked under it because I thought it sat offially low and assumed it had been lowered by the previos owner. My springs are green and they say tein on them. Can anyone give me any more info on these springs and if they are good quality?

^ Tein is a very good brand. Since you say it's pretty low, I'm guessing they're the 350z s-tech springs. Post a side profile picture of your car.
