2. 18 or 19 will not really effect your camber, when you lower it will effect it some depending how low you will go.
3. As for offset, I got 20X8.5 with a 40 and they dont rub. I think I could push it out 5mm more since I got a pretty good camber going on.
4. I know you didnt answer this but if you want a coilover system for your car copy and paste your name with the others. We are getting close enough for the right amount of people interested for them to start R&D. LOL What a great plug for them.

You guys keep complaining that we need a coilover for our cars and I have a guy that is willing to help us on this. As for the pricing I am not sure as of yet. But I will email this thread link and maybe he can answer some question. So let get this list going.

I understand that G35 owner's prefer a one box solution, but when the content's of the box don't measure up how is that solution worthy of the car the parts being installed on?
I realize that doing the Koni conversion is a pain. I realize that if you wanted to do the coilover conversion that I have done it is a pain. But, it's a little hard to believe that product wise those coilovers would give you a better product in the end.
Just posting because I don't think the issue of quality is in the thought process
Thanks for you thoughts, I am trying to get this company on this forum to answer any question we have. I am just trying to help out the X community. If I dont have enough intrest soon, I will just step out and just go with the koni conversion.
Eibach Sportlines on the X
Does anyone run Eibach Sportline springs on their G35X?
Similarly, is anyone running DSpecs on their X?

I had sportlines nice drop but the front was a bit higher , I also had tokico dpecs on the rear and it felt good but the front shocks were useless since they dont fit so i had to try something different

1- 04 Z springs unrevised(got with 4k on em)
2- Lowered 1.5" all around
3- The ride quality is a little bit stiffer than stock. still nice.
4- No Probs so far
5- The spings had 4k when i bought them and ive only done 500 so far.
6- So far the shocks/struts are holding up just fine.
7- 18x8 225/45 all around. 38 offset(i think)
also as far as my camber is concerned it doesnt look like it threw it out that bad. i still need to go for an alignment. then well see whats up.
heres some pics from right before and right after. the springs have settled a little bit more also. i need to take some more pics!
