Eibach Pro Kit were developed on a non-sport sedan - I ran them with OEM non-sport struts for a couple years without issue... the drop was a over and inch but less than 1.5" after settled... ride quality was fine - handling was good - camber stayed within spec with OEM 17"

Here's a pic with them:


On 19" camber couldn’t be brought within spec and adjustable A-Arms were needed... I ended up replacing the OEM non-sport struts with D-Specs (40K on OEM they are still fine, but I wanted the adjustability of d-specs) - pic:



All springs and all cars aren’t going to react the same to suspension mods - so be careful with what you read about camber, handling and ride quality and its relation to how much drop.

Rodrigo, this is what I'm doing. Did you notice too much bounce in the rear w/ the 350z revised springs on the HPs?
