Calling all "X's" with a lowered suspension!
with the g35x standard stiffer rear springs how does the slightly lower 03-04 coupe rear springs effect the car? and also with the stock 350z in the front with there higher rate how does that effect the x? and with both installed the front is 1inch lower and the rear 3/4?
Im debating on lowering my car. How much does it cost for a good kit? (if you can post pics of your cars with how much you paid, i'd appriciate it)
Otherwise, i'd probably do 19s or 20s on stock suspension... Anyone got pics of that as well?

FlyingLumpia, are you still lowered on 350z h-techs? If you are not, why did you take them off? Did you need a camber kit? I am thinking about this drop for my sedan (RWD), but not many have gone this route.
I am not lowered on 350z h-tech anymore. I still have them. When I had the fronts and rears on, it was the same thing, the rear LOOKED lower than the front. So I put on 350z s-techs in the front and it kind of even things out. When I put my stock wheels back on, it was really low, scraping alot, so I took the rear h-techs out and put in stock 350z springs. So with those in the rear and s-techs in the front it gives it some rake. Maybe a fraction of too much rake, but I think it looks better than the saggy butt look.
As for chamber kits, I should get some. But I have not. I got my stocks and 20's that I just trade off and on, and plus since I am not running staggered, I can rotate the wheels. But I believe I will get some in the near future.

so far im thinking 03/04 front z springs, 03/04 coupe rear springs with 05+ z shocks on 20X8.5 245/35/20 +42 offset? after settlement and alignment and not picking up a chamber kit i think this will be golden.

Though the question has been asked before, Flying (and other X'ers) I am thinking of going S-Tech with Tork19's and FalkenFK-452. I have 27k miles and am thinking of using the original shock/struts. Being that the coilover option is certainly in it's infantcy, this seems to be my favorite reaserched first step...Short story long, how bad is the ride going to be? Will I feel like I am driving a Civic with chopped shocks, or does it just feel tighter?
