You could do it with the 8.5" rims all around with rolled fenders and a tiny stretch on the tires. 225/40 or something like that. You could probably stay at or under -2 degrees camber front and rear.

redo tint (if tickets in cali arent to bad)
roof spoiler(don't know what kind & should i get a black one, or body color?) Not my thing
350z revised springs (do i need camber kits, will it screw anything up? will i still align into spec? will i rub with stock 17's or stock 07 350z rims?) No camber kit needed, no rubbing with sedan offsets -- 07 350z, depends which ones, you should be fine with the 8.5 rears, 10" rears (e.g. Nismo) you'd wanna look into it.
altima fatboy DIY tips (where can i find oem altima tips?)
I would add aftermarket sway bars to your list, one of the best bang-for-buck mods. Also a coupe mid-pipe for some nice sound, you don't even need to replace your stock muffler, just bolt the middy right in.

I'm getting my front windows tinted darker finaly & i bought a HKS axle back, my brothers going to pick it up in socal for me, I got a strut bar, i thought about sways but they seem a bit pricey for front and back...I'll prolly drop my car on the z springs in a couple months and i tinted my reverse lights, spoiler lights & i'm waiting on more tint film so i can do my actual tails, it's super light and just makes the lights look like a maroon kinda color.

^ don't tint your headlights with film unless you got black bezels. The tint will make the chrome bezels look brown

Now if anyone would sell their middy, I'd be all over it too. Can't find anyone selling one. I've found a couple Z middy's but they're too short from what I gather.

Sorry, no one I know that can weld. Plus I'm too cheap to pay someone to add a few inches of pipe to that.

That could be so misinterpreted..........

HKS is a nice addition, and sways are a far better value than a strut bar (I have both). Does practically nothing unless you get a really $$$ one.

@GAU - yeah, coupe mids are hard to come by but a Z mid can be extended by any muffler shop for a reasonable price.

i have a coupe one lol the one for the z needs to be extended, the one for the coupe doesn't. But yes not knowing a welder or a muffler shop around could create an issue

So are you selling your coupe one? If so, how much shipped to 89115? If it doesn't need modded, I'm all about that.

I purchased it from a member on here and never took it out the box, you would just need to get it welded back together which should be a cheap and easy job! If you want it just shoot me a pm, any and everyone. I'll sell it for cheap.

Trying to lower my 04 sedan

I have an 04' sedan with 20's. Looking to lower it. I've read that dropping the car more than .8" messes with the vdc. True? If so my understanding is that I can get springs from a 350z and just swap them in. I understand this will give me about a 1" drop, will have that vdc issue. I have the sport model.

Will I need any other mods for this to work? And what are the pros/cons of those springs on my car vs. something like tiens?

Thanks for the help, I've been reading but just looking for clarification.
