All I'm interested in is coupe springs... Don't want to lower much at all just a tad.

Nothing at all wrong with lowering an X, a lowered X handles 10x better than a lowered RWD. I'm running H&R sports and Koni yellow, and couldn't ask for a better feel & setup!! Hugs the road like motha and handles like pornstar!!!

Normally I always get H&R spring which lower close to 2" but still not confirm wheather I would need chamber kit or not...
If you like to lower and wont get in trouble I think Z revised spring will work fine but it wont be as tide and firm as H&R spring
As soon as I got confirm that using H&R spring wont be trouble I ll let you knw
I think any lowering requires a camber kit. But I think almost everyone will agree 2" is a big drop and would definitly need a camber kit to get anywhere near aligned properly.

Anything special about lowering an X? Do you need to lower the front/rear the same height?

I'm looking at the Eibach Pro Kit and the H&R Sport springs. Will coupe springs/350z springs work on an X as well? Any other options I should be looking into? Which of these options provides the best ride comfort? Not looking for a coilover setup (not like there really is one for our cars).

Sorry for hijacking!

My "X" is an 06
I have gone through the Sticky "Calling all X's with a lowered suspension and the general idea I get is that it's better to wait for an "X" specific application. You should read the Sticky and see what you think.
I live in SLC and have had lowered vehicles before, I'm not too concerned about lowering it (other than the side effects) I only want to go about 1"
Thanks for all your replies!
