post photos of lowered 05-06 sedans please!

I'm looking to replace my 04 sedan. I had tanabe nf210 springs on my old car but i was never really happy with the drop. I want something slightly lower in front (especially cause the 05+ bumper doesnt hang as low as the 04 nismo bumper) and slightly higher in the rear.

I might end up going with basic coilovers if i cant get the drop i want with springs.

I searched for a good while but its hard to find specific photos.

thanks guys

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the only springs you can get without a camber kit (or excessive tire wear) are the 350z or coupe springs and maybe Tein 350Z H techs.

you will need to get the rear camber kits on all of these lower springs. I have the 350Z h-techs, and I had pretty fast wear on the inside of the rear tires! biggest problem isn't the tire wear, but the lack of traction and cornering without bringing the camber back in line. My car could spin the tires way too easily and tended to have a snap oversteer. Once I installed the spc kit and aligned the rear, traction was back and cornering became predicatbel again.

get the rear camber kit from SPC. It is pretty cheap and works well. self install is easy, too.

Not true. My camber is fine (-1 degrees front, -1.25 degrees, rear). No excess tire wear. Some negative camber will actually improve grip while cornering (it all depends on how you like it).

EDIT: Here is some pics of some more cars.

either way w/ stock suspension you'll still get camber wear on the tires... especially if you throw people in the backseat of your car
