Since I'm not all that familiar with springs. Any possible way to get low with them? Assuming aftermarket shocks will help, but how much more of a drop can I expect to gain? I have Espiler springs currently.

350z s-techs in the front here..rays have 245-40-19 all around...matched the drop with my coils in the rear. This is with 350z shocks and struts *disregard yellow tape, holding on splash guards for 05/06 rear. Pretty low

The rears I would be good cos I have some adjustable springs, but the fronts is my main concern. Wish they had that for the front. Bah. Maybe I'll just deal with what I got.

Mine is kinda like that. Hard to tell cos of the distance.

Hey all,

Relatively new member (and G owner) here. Just wondering if, when reading through the different lowering options which exist, whether I need to consider anything different for a sedan sport suspension (identified, by red shocks, correct?)?

My summer wheels are 19's, though I'm a bit leery of the other dimensions at the moment. Looking to lower it, primarily for cosmetic reasons, for cheap, without compromising any other parts or having to worry about camber. In other words, I'm considering coupe/z springs, a full Z suspension, or lowering springs from Eibach or Tein.

Any advice would be appreciated. Here's the only picture I can find of my car, with summers on, online. Ignore the women.

As untechnical as it gets: Basically want the gap between the tire and the wheel well to shrink, but by no means do I want the tires to be disappearing underneath the fender, if you know what I mean.

Also, more importantly, I don't want any drastic change in ride comfort. This is a daily driver which my wife also drives (in the picture!).

I'm guessing my ideal drop would be around 1", which I've also heard is the limit if you want to keep the alignment in spec without a kit. True?

Thanks. Given I have the sport suspension, the 350Z springs have the same rate as my current springs, correct?

Would this setup (not the full z suspension, just the springs) result in a rear sag? I mean, the car "sags" or appears to sag when stock...this option will evenly drop it right?

Revised Z springs will drop you pretty evenly.
Here are some pics of my car on revised 2007 z springs on stock shocks

anyone got opinions on springs vs coilover, i use my car for daily driving but I am an agressive driver. I saw einbach shocks plus springs for around $600, vs coilovers which is $1300... any opinions?
